Is it just me, or are you guys just a match made in Heaven??
And if you don't move soon, Canreef may just ban you two from posting!
I am just jealous because I wished that MY husband is as excited about my clams, corals, shrimps as you two are about each others pets!

Btw, how much light do you have over your acans, Doug?
I cannot decide if I should move mine in or out of the shade. I have 250W MH over 24".

I tend to think so Lenny......I think the two of us sharing the same passion is cool.....although if she does end up moving here, I think that us being together and me at Red Coral could be a really dangerous combination.......can you say 10' tank!!!

I told ya, you don't have to sell it, it can "visit" my tank. You would need a bigger sump and skimmer if you got a bigger small tank, best just to send it my way

Ya we'd be an even better match if one of us would cave and go live with the other We're both pretty stubborn that way neither of us likes the idea of moving and leaving friends and family. But yes if we do ever live together I think at least a 10 foot tank would be in order, and it's very nice to share the same passion but it can be costly too

I totally admit that this winter has royally sucked. I also agree that Calgary is a beautiful city, but my family and friends are in Edmonton, as well as I've been at the same job for 11 going on 12 years, I get lots of vacation time and good benefits which would be hard to pass up but sometimes change is good too. I also own my house in Edmonton and I hate the process of always keeping the house clean etc. when trying to sell it (went through that with my condo) and I also have moved around enough to know I absolutely hate packing!!!! Doug rents right now, and either way he would have to move (his rental doesn't allow pets and I have 2 dogs and a cat) so he should move here Easier said then done, I know

Compromise and meet in the middle somewhere. Like, oh I don't know ... Borneo maybe. Palau. Bora-Bora. Lots-o-reefs there and slightly less snow. And exactly halfway in the middle of Calgary and Edmonton .. or at least, the difference is distance from these places to either C or E is going to be negligible, ergo, they are halfway in the middle.
