So, a good friend of mine and I were chatting just a few days ago, and the topic of the "next big thing" in fish keeping and especially saltwater came up. Now, I know what you're thinking. What the devil could the next big thing in saltwater be? Well, opinions vary, and I was curious about YOUR...

By the by- have you checked out http://www.aquariumdesigngroup.com for their absolutely incredible paludariums? I know there's some debate over the quality of their FOWLR setups and designs, but I don't think anyone could argue that ADG makes some ab-fab set ups and designs! There's even an...

When I lived in Atlanta, my roommate, Beth, and I were particularly infamous for unofficially rescuing and fostering unusual animals, including reptiles. There was a time when we had seven red eared sliders, two musk turtles, two savannah monitors, three leopard geckos (including one blind...

:-X I feel really funny right about now. I just got some information on MRC ("just," as in I heard it an hour ago), and, rest assured, the company has been purchased by EXTREMELY capable people who want nothing more than to produce the highest quality of products.

There is a sort of inverted bottle trap that has been known to work by some of my former clients. It involved taking a plastic liter or two liter bottle (depending upon the size of the fish) and cutting the funnel-shaped neck off. Then, cut off the very top of the bottle to a hole just large...

http://www.nanowrimo.org Nanowrimo's Official Website! However, the closer we get to November, the more bogged down the site gets, and it only gets worse on deadline week. So, if you want more info and the site's down again, Wikipedia has a decent enough entry on it (...

*giggle* You could always do what Neil Gaiman did for the 24 Hour Comic. When the deadline was getting closer and closer, and Gaiman hadn't finished his comic, he was left with two choices; not complete the challenge by finishing the comic later, or make a quick ending then. Gaiman finished the...

The name of the thread says it all. Who all is planning to participate in the 2007 Nanowrimo? **If you aren't familiar, Nanowrimo is the National Novel Writing Month. It's 30 days to write a 50,000 word novel. It's gloriously awful and fun all at the same time. It's not nearly as bad as the...

LMAO. Say no to Vista! :P Seriously. My Dad decided to do in the old computer, and ended up getting some sort of a Dell WITH Vista. I don't really know which one, since I stopped paying attention when that computer became useless to me... as in when I finally got a copy of the Adobe CS package...

Re: Attention: Show us your FTS (Full Tank Shot, in case you don't know the term .... I'm still in that stage. *pout* I think everyone goes through that when they start a new tank for the first year or so- more for you SPS lovers! :P

Lol. I think you severely undersestimate how tough of a coral star polyps can be. So long as there is still some healthy polyps or mat left, they'll grow back. It might take a little while, but it'll grow back. And, no, if they do grow back, unless either you, a more aggressive coral, your flame...

I feel you on the lack of corals thing. We went there a year after it opened, and there was basically only the giant 'nem nestled amid all the faux coral. However, I like to think of it this way. Considering how long it takes corals to spread in the home tank and fill in imagine how long it's...

.... I thought about that for a moment, and it made me cringe. :P

Me, I hate them. .... except for in one instance. See, I was working in the pet shop and discovered they are a god-send in certain situations. Anyone who has ever worked a kennel or fish room knows the floors get mighty slippy (which is makes it really fun to run and slide on the floor)...

.... actually, no I wouldn't be surprised. I've heard some very intriguing stories from Alan, a few of which I'm certain aren't supposed to be public knowledge. :P But I'm definitely jealous of the diving! I've always wanted to learn to SCUBA dive... especially now that I've found out that you...

..... how do you guys even look at bristle worms if you can't look at a giant isopod? They're like if someone mated lobsters and roly-poly bugs! .... :-\ ... okay... so they DO kind of look like those freakish bug things from the Silent Hill movie that where following around the pyramid...

The swimming thing has me incredibly jealous of you. :P But, maybe, just maybe, if they're still trying to force saddlebacks and percs to coexist when both colonies obviously don't want to coexist.... maybe you could convince them that it's not such a good idea? Or at least nuke the aiptasia...

I adore the Georgia Aquarium.... but hate it at the same time! :P It is definitely an awesome experience, with fish that you will not see anywhere else, like a FEW moorish idols in the reef tank! To make it better, when I was there, many of the animals are getting really comfortable with all...

7.) They're all really fun to say when you've just pulled an almost all nighter and haven't had coffee yet. ;D

Lol. It's the same concept as your mathematics one by confusing a simple question with loads of misdirection.
