I'm actually strangely a little bit jealous about it too. I don't know what I'm finding weirder about this whole thing.

Must be all the ink. Makes you a BAMF. It also helps to have the arms (and chest, and back and abs and quads) of a Gladiator.

I had to google what a BAMF is. I thought it was just where the unicorns lived. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkW-EAkClbE

It has it's moments, but it's more a DAMF set of moments most of the time.

However, if I ever build another tank, it's going to have a 3" valve on the bottom!

Do you ever get tempted to do a really big waterchange?

If I had the ability to store the nearly 280g (whatever it works out to minus the overflow and rock and stuff) of my DT I would probably do the same (drain the tank to catch fish, and/or do the occasional "reallly big" w/c..)

What do you do with all the water you take out?

If I had the ability to make 150g of water in a single container that did NOT sit in my kitchen, then ya, I'd do one once a month.

To do the tank drain party thing, I borrow some 50g barrels from my LFS.

Having problems with chemistry? levels out of whack? Can't get those pesky nutrients down? Don't waste your money on those new-fangled and expensive additives, try new the new and improved 98% water change! Flush those problems down the drain and Presto! It's like you've got a new tank!

I

giant water changes

Brad, how did your low tide similation go? Found a new home for the tang?

Todd took the yellow and the purple is recovering in the frag tank. Not sure what to do with it now. Pretty sure the Achilles will take it out if I out it back in the DT. Might try and trade for a Moorish Idol

I thought Tyler was looking for a Purple...no?
