I am in so much sh#t tonite.....holiday, spent too much money......
So, like two small orders coming in and hubby looses it, snaps. I think
I have to hide the lights for the 25g I ordered, at least until things
cool down, I never even got to mention those.
Can't you have this hobby and RRSP's too ??!! :-(

Maybe study the eating habits of YELLOW Tangs? Or the effect of them
being moved to progressively larger tanks every coupla months?

Hmmm...the Canadian government may just be open to that.....I'm sure they
don't have any idea what a YELLOW tang is.

That would be the case if George W. Bush was our Prime Minister ;o) On the
other hand, I must be outta my mind to even consider such an absurdity !?!!!

Geez, I'd rather nap than fill out grant application forms ;o)

On the subject of the carbon study, I'm in the process of investigating the low KH
situation in our reef before I get back into doing individual experiments. Plus,
there are two carbon samples coming in from the US. I hope customs doesn't hold
them up too long. So once the carbon arrives and I've been able to do something
about the low KH, I'll get back to the study, providing my father-in-law's health
continues to improve.

Life is so complex some days :o(
