isn't that true!!!! the thought has occured to me to just get my livestock from other people who's fish that have out grown their tanks. then i wouldn't have to wait for them to get big. but for me, that is 1/2 the fun
knowing the life span of some of these fish i don't want to get something i don't really want or like, that is for sure. i made that mistake with a Powder Blue Tang, beautiful fish, meanest little B**tard you would ever see. he must have killed 6 or 8 other Tangs i had. he may have been the biggest reason i took my reef tank down. i could never catch him. i had him on a hook once but he wrapped the line around a staghorn coral and pulled the hook out of his lip. his lip was hanging for 2 weeks or so and i was hoping that he'd die of an infection or something but he healed up and would never bit again
i can be patient, if i have to. Craig's list is an option, i'll look there. Arizona is a bit far to drive to check out the Dats there. although it might be a nice road trip.......
