crox...Even though I love the blue face, I would have to say she is nasty at meal time. She actually makes a Popping noise when she tries to tail nip others away from the food. When I first heard this noise, I thought something was malfunctioning on one of the pumps...then I realized it was my blue face...getting blue in the face over her "wanting to share" tank mates. The weird thing about her is she is a good 4" and hasn't changed yet...

Wow, I can't beleive you said that. My dominos literally hated my yellow watchman and always have. The watchman finally found safety in the overflow box but I finally was able to get rid of one damsel so I finally put the watchman back in and rigged the overflow box so he couldn't go back in. When I put him back in, the last domino went straight after him and I heard that popping sound after time he attacked. I didn't know if it was the domino or the watchman yelling for help :scared:

Yeah I've been watching the whole process but thats too scary for me
I was with you until it came time to make the teeth and mount it lol. Besides I've already bought all the plumbing and return pumps for two. I just dont need 1000gph going thru my relatively small sump (25x12x16).

Yeah...its definately scary stuff...but these equipment thread guys have created a monster...now everyday I'm in my garage with my Ipod on drowning out the hum of the drills and saws, having a blast.
Today I finished building the frame for my 150 diy stand. My kids come home from school and call out mom!!! I can't even hear them...Is this mid life crisis??? Is that what this is?? :scared:

Ok...let me know what you're selling it for and how much you want to sell...I have a van and can just stick a trash can in the back and come get it...I can meet you, come to brooklyn, or whatever.. I go through staten island alot anyway since I used to live there. sleasia@comcast.net
By the way, I started thinking that even if you do set up a qt, you probably don't want live rock in it anyway...it wouldn't survive hypo...

I have approx only 40lbs and I wanted $100. The LR in a QT is not a good idea.
