    I originally started out with 2 damsels. One was a royal PITA even to the other damsel, but I lost him when I lost my yellow tang and I still don't even know what happened there. This damsel I have now is best friends with everyone in the tank lol. Actually a great fish to have if you can believe that.

    Wow, your lucky. I love the colors of damsels but refuse to get one other than a clown because of their attitude.

    I forgot to mention that I went to a new LFS today (well new to me) and they have a lay-away plan lol. My wife was tank shopping. :) She wants this 54 gallon half moon tank now. At first it was a 54 gallon corner tank with overflow built in. We shall see what the future holds. She wants me to take this tank down, buy yeah right lol. I for see a his and hers tank in the living room lol.

    i actually love damsels, the 3 spot damsel is one of my favorites. just too aggressive for most tanks unless you get lucky.

    And congrats on a cool yellow tail satans spawn. Would love a nice on in the tank.

    Lol, cheap it would be for sure. She was asking me how much it would take to get the 54 gallon up and running. I'm just glad she is interested honestly. Makes everything so much easier. The funny part is though, just a month ago I was going to buy her a Flame Angel. Makes me wonder who the angel is really for lol. 8)

    lol, they have their ways. ;D Either way, I came home with an awesome fish that we both want. Can't go wrong there. She was even looking at corals today asking if we could keep this or that. I might have a lighting upgrade coming before to long lol. Can I say LED's? ;D

    The best thing is the bank just approved the SCRA for my car loan. They are going all the way back to May 2008 and re-adjusting every single payment. The car was payed off in June anyways, but I might have some extra money coming in now lol. The previous bank had the loan all jacked up somehow. So, hopefully no more car payments, which means more money for my tank right?
