    the Sacrificial Damsel does not tea bag tank mates, he tater-sacks em'

    Sacrificial Damsel doesn’t wear a watch, HE decides what time it is.

    When Sacrificial Damsel talks, everybody listens. And dies.

    Sacrificial Damsel is the most interesting fish in the world.

    Sacrificial Damsel doesn't always drink, but when he does, it's dos oceanos.

    Sacrificial Damsel not only starts the cycle, he ends it.

    When Sacraficial Damsel goes in water, Sacraficial Damsel doesn't get wet. Water gets Sacraficial Damsel.

    (Works better with Chuck Norris) When Chuck Norris dives in the river, he doesn't get wet, the river gets Chuck Norris.

    Yes, but remember, there is no longer a Chuck Norris. It turns out, 7 years ago while scuba diving, Chuck Norris' and Sacrificial Damsels eyes happened to meet. A hole in space time ripped open, and when the dust settled, only Sacrificial Damsel was left standing. Fearing widespread panic throughout the world if the "power" (using quotations because no human word truly fits there) of Sacrificial Damsel ever went public, it was decided amongst world leaders that a Chuck Norris stand-in immediately had to be found, and the whole situation kept a deep secret.
    To this day, deep within Hangar 18, there is a team of brilliant scientist working to try and unlock the secrets of Sacrificial Damsel. They have been utterly unsuccessful.

    When will Sacrificial Damsel begin work on his canopy?

    I believe the great wall of China was built to keep Sacrificial Damsel "In" and not out

    Sacrificial Damsel has declared his habitat to be open top, no canopy.

    Nah, I just am waiting for a cooler day to get up into the crawl space to mount the 2X4's in there so I can hang the light. It was 143 degrees up there yesterday. I'm in no rush to be working in that ;)

    Drill 3/4" holes where you want the chains to hang from the ceiling. Use a plumb-bob to center the holes and mark the cieling.
    I used 1/4" diameter toggle bolts, but I tossed the bolts and substituted 4" long eyebolts and fender washers. The toggle bolts easily hold the weight. I thought I needed to hang them anchored securely from a floor joist over the tank too, but I was advised by an expert that a toggle bolt through 1/2" sheetrock will hold up much more than you ever thought possible. ;)
