Naw, is not an acan, though some of them do have simalar coloring. But there's two easy ways to tell the diff. My brain has multiple mouths on each 'lobe' or section, while (AFAIK) acans only have 1 mouth per polyp.
Plus, I did not mention anything about having to eat ramen noodels 3 meals a day for the next month cuz I spent all my money :rolleyes:

I used to like ramen that much... cept I went and ate them so often I got sick of them. But we've had some good asian/ethnic markets open around me latly and they have New types of ramen. oooh. So sometimes I try one of those.

Good call typo! The lfs had it marked as a symphillia, though they did not go more specific then that. I have not searched online to verify yet, but this store is generally very accurate. So I am glad the two of you agree.

Hey, what's up! You live in/around Aurora then?

The store is right on the borderline of Aurora and Naperville. It is on the Naperville side of Rt59, across from the Fox Valley Mall, same parking lot as Wal-Mart. Store name is Petland. I highly recomend it. I gave it and the other stores in the area reviews under the lfs section of the review boards
Paul's the guy you really want to talk to, he's daytime. Mike is also knowledgeable, he's afternoons/nights.
