I have a cousin in B.C. and she hates winters,

BTW shark steaks with a little lemon pepper, umum

[charlie]

Is shark meat a white meat? If so, I might have to give that a try.

[reefhead728]

Yep and its GREAT, I used to help my uncle run charter boats out of charleston SC, we would catch bull sharks and have one hell of a fish fry.

[charlie]

To bad you didn't save me some!!!!

[reefhead728]

I havnt done any deep sea fishing in years, but i will try to go when i can get my hands on another boat.

[charlie]

I am gonna have to go to the store tomorrow and get me some fish. jeremy, don't hurry on my account

Yep..................and considering the fact that I don't like sharks:

I have several friends over in HA right now getting ready to do the Iron Man Championship race on Saturday at Kona (Swim 2.5 miles - withthesharks then Bike 112 miles then Run a marathon, all for time). One of them took a pic while they were out swimming, which showed 5 Hammerhead sharks following them (the swimmers)...Yikes! Linsey captioned it: "The water here is great, throw in more of those triathletes, please!"

I've seen sharks in HA & scuba diving in the Caribbean, they tend to avoid people once they see ya.
Thankfully.

I would like to see that pic Kevin.

Thanx for having a sense of humor about the BS in here, sometimes we can get carried away.

Yeah sharks aren't so bad. We saw them all the time at the beach in AL. We used to catch black tips down there too. yum

[reefhead728]

to long i guess,

my cousin from bc goes to baja mexico and does reef diving for 3 months out of the year all he does there is camp and dive, i have some crazy video clips of him doing underwater spear fishing.

So I am digging through old pictures to find the origins of the tank....which is bringing back many memories....things I conveniently forgot....like Debbie saying, "Do you really want to do this?"

1 & 2) My first views of the tank at Kyle's house (after I'd decided to go for it)...some rock is out in other containers, some corals & fish have gone to new homes (you know who YOU ARE!)
3 & 5) set up my 60 gallon tank for temporary disaster housing for the fish
4) So much crap involved with the water....I can't just use it out of the tap?

Please remember this is my FIRST salt water aquarium, I had read NOTHING at this point, it was pretty much an impulse buy!

[reefhead728]

Wow got the john Wayne coffee cup

"Do you really want to do this" thats to funny,

[charlie]

Hope you ain't done posting pics!!! Should I tell them about the phone calls and e-mails???

[lostcreekreefer]

More old set-up pics for those of you who might care:
1) Rocks moved in, the water did clear!
2) What the HECK is THAT THING?????
3) Fish in
4) New tank in (through the window...removed a fixed pane & passed the stand side-ways, then the tank in, was super easy!)
5) all of the bulkheads & tru-unions & spa-flex & the OM-4 way reattached "Do you really want to do this????" What if it leaks

What could possibly go wrong!

[reefhead728]

Maybe my next thread ill start is "when things go bad" then we should get all kinds of problems people have had might get some funny pics too.

[charlie]

Is the thing in the 4th pic of the last set reef safe???
