    Canopy and stand

    Try Google SketchUp -> http://www.sketchup.com Don't even try using it without going through the tutorial. It's pretty easy to use, but only if you go through the tutorial. This is the stand I built.

    washing your hands

    I use gloves almost all the time now, and wash before and after. It's just a good way to help keep whatever may be on your hands out of the tank, and whatever is in your tank out of your body. Not worth the risk, IMO.

    OT Gas Prices in your area?

    I'm just glad I bought my little Beetle. It has a turbo diesel and gets 48mpg. I filled up two days ago at $2.64. It's $2.79 now and gas is $3.09 at the same station.

    How do you break the rules?

    I had a yellow tang in my 20L for about a year! I traded him for a coral recently. Glad too, he pooped more than he ate!

    always use GFCI?

    I'm no expert by a long shot, but doesn't GFCIs work better with a ground probe? Or is that just an alternative path instead of your body?
