Re: My slow 135g build

Greg, wearing that jerzey is the closest thing to sports that my brother will get. i've been trying to get him in the gym with me for years! he's a prettyboy...clothes, cars, & girls those are the only things that interest him.....the first two interest him just so he can get the last one.

Terry, wouldnt believe how hard she tries to but its hard to do with 3 80-100lbs dogs roaming the house as well. but at 18lbs+ & sharp claws & teeth she can handle pretty well.

yea, sometimes water gets between the background & the glass which gives a wierd looking image & with a big tank that close to the wall theres no getting it out, so i started painting my background.

Re: My slow 135g build

JoJo... nice family shots! What are those collectibles in the case? I love collectibles! Tank looks great, too. It's really coming along! Do you have a date in mind when you want to start filling 'er up? Where in the house will it be set up?

Dogs looking shiny and healthy and having a ball. Kitty looking ticked at the interruption of her nap! All is right with the world! LOL

Re: My slow 135g build

Thanks Barb. the sculptures are Ebony Vision.

I havent ordered my r/o unit yet because we're going to Disney World, tuesday -saturday & i wanted to wait until we got back so it wasnt sitting on the porch the whole time. as soon as we get back i'll order it & get the water flowing. the tank will be displayed in the diningroom but can be seen from pretty much anywhere in the house.

Re: My slow 135g build

dont worry thats another place that knows me by name, only living an hour away(supposed to by 1.5 hours) with the way i drive we go about every other month for about a week, we even went their for our honeymoon 3 weeks of no driving cooking cleaning.

If i hurl, they'll just say, "you know where the cleaning materials are by now" the closest i came to that was at Rockin' Rollercoaster once, after having one too many Patron' & Pineapple juice at Rain Forest Cafe' (man they have the BEST BBQ chicken pizza)

Re: My slow 135g build

Ahhh man, you're SO LUCKY to live that close to Disney World! Our daughter is 6 now so I guess it's about time to take her to the Magic Kingdom.

Wouldn't THAT be cool if we could arrange to have both of our families there together.

For your RO/DI, I got to thinking about Air, Water, and Ice which is where I bought my unit from. Fantastic unit and fantastic customer service. I don't know where you are in relation to them but you might be able to just drop in and pick one up.

They're in Fort Pierce.

Re: My slow 135g build

I've never been to Disney. I would think they were used to hurling and would consider it part of the fun!

Re: My slow 135g build

Greg think again, they may be smiling will clean but you can bet your bottom dollar they're thinking this is

Hey Terry, it shouldnt be a problem to arrange that, whenever you set a date just give me the heads up. my wife knows the entire place like the back of her hand, she should be a personal guide, so we can hit majority of the rides & sitees with minimal wait time.

we try not to go during the summer, thats when its unbelievably crowded. not to mention either its heavily raining or scorching hot.

Re: My slow 135g build

Don't they have a ride called The Hurler? And they have high pressure hoses to wash everything down after each ride.

JoJo, there isn't ANY way we'd come down during summer. I've been to Florida during August and it was so hot that I was 6' 4" when I got there and 6' 1" when I left.
