don't know if I'll get "designer" clowns, but definately a pair will be in there. Probably one of the more personable fish species out there, and that'll be good for the shop....BUUUUUT New Jersey has a reefer's site and I just so happened to see people selling some fancy fish...oh lord.

soooooo, the thread needs to be moved. Guess who got a 75 gallon RR drilled for closed loop, and stand for $60....that'd be me.

The 20 gallon long will make a good sump. Tanks should be delivered to the shop sometime this week, take me a week or so to plumb it and then the ball shall be rolling!

Now that sounds better! You could try that swap/barter thing that kid did a few years back where he traded up from one red paper clip to a house. The gallonage creep doesn't have to end yet but preferably before you get things wet lol.
