OOOPs, there you go guys, you just got him in trouble. He has been nabbed!

Personally as there is so much stuff out there, and many things can be a personal preference, I would suggest a gift certificate to your LFS (local fish store). He probably would appreciate that the most!

On a funny note, since you didn't know about the cost of the MP40's, give him a picture of them wrapped up, and say surprise. These were your gift.

I'm still confused how this guy is active on this board and won't know this is about him. How many other people will have a 140gal reef setup with two MP40s and a 300 gallon tank lying around that they aren't allowed to setup? I'm pretty sure that's not too typical.

Seriously....if anyone knows where I can get one of these....

Thumbs up Carpe Diem Cookie >:-)

Time for a woman-to-woman talk sweet Cookie!

It took me a while to reply because I've been ROFLMAO so badly I was in tears LOL!

The guys are right! Gotta love them all; they're so freaking hilarious!
  • He wants what he can't have,
  • The Coconut Bra is killer smart/he'll follow you like a pup,
  • and you giving him the reins back for a little bit is HUGE good for both of you!
I'm +1 on the 300gal permit... presented with caveat like "it's clear we don't have room to have both so "I thought" it would be wonderful to have a killer show tank..." blah blah blah... This caveat sucks but you'll need to figure out how to cleverly handle that....

And present the Gift Certificate any way you like... mmmmm baby...

But seriously now; the real joy will come from you taking the time to look into how involved this "hobby" is... It's science and love of nature and nurturing all tied up in a great package. You may find the reasons you love this guy have a lot to do with why he loves that tank >:-)

You have a chance to make this the most wonderful Christmas he'll remember forever...

Just a few thoughts from an aged (ok, I'll admit that) cougar.... the ball's in your court honey bun and you can have sooooh much fun!

Merry Christmas!

The Bunny

p.s. change your Canreef location to some province other than where you live now!

The way I see it this could be any one our wives, posing as a girl from
Port Moody, with a few pieces of fictitious equipment thrown in to deceive us... very srewd... so...


I vote for the mermaid costume... minus the coconuts

thank you for your advise, they are so true.
perhaps I may think about the 300g in the future.

Although I have already got the gift cards, he was hinting last night that he REALLY wouldn't mind a NICE clam, does any one of you wouldn't mind to part with one?
