    My pork puffer is ill. It looks like white spots, slime all over him. Earlier today he was fine. It does not look as bubbly as ICH, but i can not rule that out. The last time my tang got ich, I treated with copper in a 10 gal with no success. Water is okay, nitrate 15. Rest of tank consit...

    ATTENTION ***REALLY BIG**** Tank Owners

    Here is another thought. When I built my deck with a hot tub on it, 480 gallon tub, plus the shell, filters, pumps, and 6-8 people. I went to Lowes and they could tell me what size of boards to use. I would think they could do the same for a fish tank. Give them the size of the tank(not...

    ATTENTION ***REALLY BIG**** Tank Owners

    I am not an enginer, but it would seem that you are making sure the house has better support than the tank stand. I would check how the stand is built, and make sure that your house has atleast that much support.

    Must have had "SUCKER" on my forehead!!!

    Hafen - Please don't take this the wrong way. It sounds like you have freshwater expierence, you should know that you can't put that many fish in one small tank. I understand that ***** does not offer a quarantee on SW fish, I think there should be a class action suit against them for...

    Tony, that is way off, I live in Columbus ohio, and I know that Michigan does not have a higher cost of living. I do not make 100K a year, I have 3 daughters, 1, 5, and 6.5. My wife does stay at home with my kids, but she does watch a couple of other kids to supplement our income. We live in...

    I am cunfussed again, you complain about having to work to hard and to many hours, couldn't you work half the time and have a $425,000 house, I think that would still be a respectable house in a respectable neigborhood? Do the people in other countries that work 30 hours, with 6 weeks vacation...

    Jlem - tony. I was just doing the math on the 300 weekly taxes, and was coming to the conclusion that the house is worth about 1,000,000, unless detroit has that much higher taxes as oppossed to Columbus, and I know that is not the case. If you don't have a 1,000,000 home, and are still paying...

    JLEM - I count't agree more. About sending jobs oversees, it is not the gov, but the companies decisions. The board of directors for these companies are sopposed to do what is best for the shareholders, ie stock price, if they find it fit that the best overall labor, or parts come from out of...

    125 v 150

    I am thinking of starting another tank, I am going between a 125 that is 6 feet long, and a 150 that is 4 feet long. This will also house aggresive fish. Is the 125 better because it is longer, or is the 150 better because of the extra 25 gallons?

    ka0z4allu- If you don't mind me asking, what do you do for a living? Does your employer not offer insurance at a disounted rate, or did you turn it down. I am not trying to be rude, just curious, can you afford to get insurance on your own. These are things that should be considered will...

    I agree that something needs done with our health care, however alot of low paying jobs do still offer health care. Even with no health care, a job is a job. Think about this, if all the people on gov assistance got jobs, we may be able to afford national health care?

    150k for a ceo is extremely low, but consider this, if a ceo runs a company properly and that compny is successful and employs hundreds to thousands of people, money well spent. I am not saying that there is a great job for everyone, but for the most part there are jobs avaialable. how about we...
