    On a package of fluke tabs it has a warning on the back in big letters:

    DO NOT USE ON BABY WHALES

    ... my whale is 1.5 years old, think it'll be safe?


    Another one had on the front "Reef Safe" and on the back said "Do not use in tanks with live corals or other invertebrates"

    ... not as funny. But still, made me think.

    Hey GraySoul, I'm also from Albuquerque. Who is your LFS? I patronize SW Reef.

    Good, those guys need more patronizing. Especially Chris, he need patronizing, and a swift kick in the ass.

    Yeah, you can usually find me there tuesdays after 5 looking at the new fish. It's the only LFS in town I'll buy anything living from. Everywhere else seems clueless.

    I asked Rob to order me a baby whale, I want to do an experiment.

    Good luck on the baby whale. Yea, I agree. I like the store and the personnel. It really is the only store in town. My tank is in quarantine for the next 4 weeks but maybe I'll see you there one Tuesday night.
