LFS issue

[TDEVIL]

hello

went to the LFS today, they just got some new acros, very cool
i got one of them, hehe, its on hold till Tues/Wed

as for the post, i was checking out the corals, like we all do and noticed this thing peaking out, and what to my suprise, it was a OS peacock, about 3.5" long, i told the manager dude, and asked him how much for the M shrimp, he said i dont have any , so i said, take a look, it looks like a male OS, just a bit of color, but mostly brown, still cool, it jetted of very quickly (after a fish), that was the coolest thing, besides the coral i bought
he couldnt do anything to the tank, just yet, the corals just arrived last night, but i wanted to let him know, for safety reasons, he is the only person i deal with at the store, i would hate to see him w/o a finger,

thanks Dave, i wanted all of them, but the wife said NO
bout time on the light upgrade, my friend
it is driveing me nuts waiting on the acro, but its better this way, i usuakky dont get things from them, most of their prices are a bit high, IMO, Mike is always cheaper, but he doesnt have the lighting for SPSs, and i always deal with Dan when i go there

guys, i would love to get him/her, but i dont have the tank yet or the supplies for the tank, i still have a bit of talking to do with the wife on that aspect, but it is in the works , she said that i had to wait until April , i want one now, thou

i guess i could get a tank out of the closet and set it up, hummm, guess i have some more talking to do

hey jay got my lights today so now i have to build a canopy to house them.i must say troy [pro_builder] did an excellent job on shipping them.they all arrived just fine and better quality then i expected so you guy's should check him out. i think he shipped them out thurs or friday and i got them today i thought that was super fast.anyway not to steal your thread or anything like that so sorry.so you want a mantis,i've never seen one in person but i know there cool so good luck convincing the wife.just tell her well dave's wife let him have one lol. she'll never know ha ha.

Taz,

A male O.s. would be a great addition. You want me to babysit for him until April???

 

[TDEVIL]

lol, Dave, those lights sure got here quick, what did you get?

well she said i have to wait, started cleaning a 10g today, just incase , its a glas tank, but it would do for now

thanks for the offer Curt, i really want a female, but a male will do, ofcourse im not sure it actually was a male/female, i only got to see it for a second, something just said it was a male, im sure the other costumers were thinking i was weird for jumping all around, saying, a mantis, a mantis, lol
