i mentioned in the anenome and clownfish section that my sis in law bought me a carpet anenome yesterday. while we were at my LFS...she decided she just had to have one of the bio-cubes...so i have officially added another saltwater addict into our family.

she ended up getting the 8 gallon cube, picked out some fiji rock and some live sand and pre-mixed water and took it home. she actually thought the owner was just going to sell her his floor model which had already been up and running for like 6 months...it had everything already in it, shrooms, anenomes, a cleaner shrimp and the usual cleanup crew plus some other stuff....he was laughing at her..."I'M NOT SELLING YOU MY SET-UP"..she was like..come on..how much???? too funny.

i think she is gonna have some hearthache with it. i told her exactly how to set it up and to just let it run. she called me last night asking why the pump was so noisy...i asked her how much water there was in that chamber..was it at the max line..she was like no its almost empty...LOL...i was like dont you think the pump needs water to pump...she thought the tank was going to overflow if she put anymore water into it because the actual tank was filled up.

i am hoping once she gets settled in she comes with me to my various LFS, especially the TROPICORIUM over in romulus. i would more than ever like to help her stock it up..maybe snag a few pieces for myself..hehehehehehe.
