That is absurd. I've lived in Dallas, TX, OKC, OK, and Miami, Fl. I've seen any where from $6-9/lb. Also, you can order it saltwaterfish.com for about $4.50/ lb delivered, and they give you a $20 credit toward your next purchase.
I cracked the bottom glass of my 120 when I moved it. I had another piece cut to size and siliconed it in over the bottom piece. It's been running for over a year with no issues at all.

I assume he's referring to "with sand in it." There would be no point to putting the sand in first, it would just make a mess. BTW, sorry about your team. I would be pissed if my gators suffered those kind of injuries.
Thanks BangGuy,
I value your input because I have read many of your posts and I know you know what you are talking about. I'm glad I know the reason behind it now.
Thanks for the responses. Yeah, I have never had an issue either. I'm kinda just wondering if there's a real reason or if it just gets repeated over and over.
I feel so smart!
P.S.
those things are evil. I swam with a school of them in Mexico and they kept biting us. They were intrigued by the underwater camera and kept biting whoever held it on the knuckles.
If there's nothing in the tank, it will be fine. However, I would mix the saltwater and then put in the sand and rocks. That way you'll be able to mix it without creating a sandstorm. Also, rinse the sand well before you put it in and it won't cloud your tank as badly.
Well, I'm not a new hobbyist, but i figured this would be a good spot for this discussion. I have seen many people on this site talking about aging saltwater at least 24-48 hours. I would like to know why. I know that caustic agents are released and reactions occur when the salt is mixed. But...
Not that I don't think you were treated wrong, you obviously were. It kinda seems like you didn't make any effort to contact the owner though. You should have let him know what his employee was doing before trying to destroy his business. The owner may have no idea about the circumstance...
I will try. A reef tank is a tank that contains coral. Live rock is rock from the ocean that contains bacteria and other micro-organisms. Corals are live animals that generally feed through photosynthesis as well as filter feeding.
A sump is a container, usually a small tank or acrylic box...
Yea, the adults definately don't have spots. The juveniles may from what I read. I also can't find juv. pic. But the body shape and lines down the side look like a chub.
