sell what you dont want as far as coral and what you dont need as far as LR and LS. Use thast money to get a 12 Gallon Nano... will they know the difference of 2 gallons?

Sounds like a stage in your life that is not condusive to the hobby, most of us have been through them. The dedicated aquarist always seems to return to the hobby no matter how long the hiatus.
Building another 10 footer for a customer in the spring. This one will be a either a gradual radius bow front or a flat panel partial room divider. Someday after you graduate look us up, I be glad to design one for you.

I'm with Oceanists on the Nanocube idea. On another note, you better stick around these boards!!!!

I may do a Nano...
But, I have to keep in mind that I am trying to steer clear of a job during college.
But SOMEHOW I will have to pay a $70.00 cell phone bill and a $100.00 car payment every month...

Have you thought of drug trafficking? Since your in college, you'll have a huge market. (J/K, please don't sell drugs)

You live in Decatur and moving into dorms in Huntsville? well ok....I know if I lived that close and there was not any mitigating circumstances I sure would prefer to sleep in my own bed at home and save any incurring additional expenses. Whats Decatur to huntsville bout 30 min ride?

The 45 minute drive there and back each day in a gas guzzling 6 cyl. 1993 Jeep Wranlger Sahara is the reason. And when it isn't the Wrangler, it's a 8cyl. 1988 GMC Sierra. That's two hours of driving per day. No thanks.
Also, when you pay for the dorms, it covers all food, lighting, water, electricity, internet, etc.

I would be willing to part with my 10 gallon nano if you really would like a tank. my heart goes out to you for giving up something you seem to love so much. It isn't anything elaborate but it hold water and you can enjoy it. if you are interested send me an email reckler6069@msn.com
