Went shopping this afternoon with the wife. Dropped her off at the mall. Left and went to a few fish stores around OKC. Hit the one in Edmond then picked her up and went down to the one in Norman. She of course went to a different mall. Guy in the store happened to tell me he was selling his 29...

My 3 peppermint shrimp here in the living room 29 gallon are mating as we speak. Its one of the wierdest things I have seen. They are continually making rounds around the tank and using it as a 'racetrack' of sorts. Pretty nifty

Working as a pharmacist has its perks I suppose, however dealing with nutjobs on a continous basis isn't one of them. Im not at liberty to discuss names, however I can tell the story. Today I had a gentlemen call in and ask for a pharmacist, I drew short straw and picked the phone up. Introduced...

I figured it was about time I joined a marine forum, and a lazy day off of work proved just the motivation I needed to do so. I have been around marine tanks since I can remember. My father has been neck deep in them since the late 70's, ironically he's also neck deep in alot of other things...
