Ah well, just as well, you can't do a plumbing project without at least one back to the store to get another fitting. I think it might cause the world to end or something. If you ever complete a plumbing project on the first pass and suddenly see flying horsemen ... quickly cut the pipe and claim it's the wrong size and go back to the store for the sake of us ALL.

You should try feeding the frogfish FD shrimp. Mine gets more red when I feed it that and it pales out to pink when I feed it market prawn pieces.

Does FD mean freeze dried? Where do you find that and what brand?

I feed mine Superba Krill by H20 life.

Geez if it was only 2 trips total my wife wouldn't mind tagging along. The family likes to come to 'the wood store' as the kids call it with me but if it's plumbing she refuses to come along anymore!

It's time-consuming and I usually return 2 or 3 times:

- staring blankly at the parts on the shelf
- sifting through mixed up bins
- creating new ways to get from A to B when they are missing that key piece
- consulting your drawing you brought
- hunting down a sales guy to cut some hose if needed
- laying parts out on the floor like a weirdo
- staring blankly (again) at the parts on the shelf

Did you see me at home depot Brent? That is my exact routine. Ive usually changed my mind by the time I get to the car so I have to go back in...
