Yup, thats what I was thinking. I can only imagine what would have happened if the glass around the bulkhead cracked. That happened to me when I was transporting a 75 gallon with a downpipe sticking out. Went through a door frame and downpipe hit the side. Cracked the whole bottom pane.

There would have been an inflex of extra live stock at JL aquatics for sale if that wouldve happened.

Tell me about it, Wayne and I were just talking about all the darkness looming over the BC reefing community lately. Oh well, like I said there isn't problems only solutions.

That will be taken care of. Funny when I visit those guys on the island I brought back a whole bunch of frags too. Jeez, you know you are an addict when.
