    Sounds like that LFS has some issues going on somewhere...that sucks with the six line :(

    And I don't have the mandarin yet. I was just saying that if my friend gets in over his head in that 29 gallon reef, I want it :D

    Try a search on yahoo or google or something to track down the next closest LFS near you maybe. Or use the good ole fashion phone book.

    Yeah, unfortunately they have gone through an ownership change and just haven't been the same since. And the next closest LFS is in the Sacramento area of California, about 120 miles away.
    And to top it off I am getting my angel out today. He started nipping at the clams last night :( I may trade for another fish, give the LFS one last chance. Something that can't be screwed up like a firefish or something

    Well, I got the angel back to the store today. I tried everything I could to try to find it a home, but nobody had a larger softies only tank, so back to the LFS he went.
    I picked up this cool firefish in his place on a trade. He's looking pretty healthy so far, ate very well tonight too.

    Yeah, I am well aware. I have the old egg crate on there now, which I realize is not very effective, but I will build an acrylic wall this weekend. I will be building a canopy for my big tank and do away with the worries completely. ;D

    Have you ever tested the water from the lfs when you get home?
