    He's like that, Sparky. Me? NO WAY!

    And I definitely have never grown up. Heck, I'm having a field day over my new mantis shrimp!

    I took the kids out for Barbeque tonight and since we were in the neighborhood, decided to swing by the fish store. Can anyone guess what's in the coolers?

    I've known Joe for about 20 years so we're old friends but I am far from being his biggest customer. It's not uncommon for them to send out $10-20 thousand worth of coral to a customer at a time. There are always plenty of $700 plus fish in the shop but they never stay for long.

    dang, that must be one good lfs to make that kind of money, and they must have a lot of rich clients in the area to be afford to spend the big bucks like that. I can't imagine spending $10k+ just on coral, that's insane
