hopefully, some of the smaller tanx will be going, altho if things work out, we'll be using one of them for my xmas pressie...we found a "must have", but we need to see if it's eye clears up first.  it also has a dorsal spine cuticle unsheathed and looking a bit white.

i'm sure Renee and i could cure it, but for the kind of $ we're talking, we'd rather let the LFS take the risk.

the problem is getting whatever one uses to fit thru the openings of the tanx.  the 100 gal is very open (after i took my saw to it), but the 65 is not.  i've found that just modifying the "largest" size regular net works about the best.  in this case, the modification means bending it so the sharp corners and sides are more round.

no kiddin...

we put the Eschmeyer's into hypo after the volitans left the 65, as we noticed it scratching.  we're not taking any chances.
