Big Thumbs Up To Jim Norris!!!!

wjgeese · 09-11-2002, 04:16 PM

I would post this on Reef Central also, but I'd probably get yelled at!!

Just wanted to give Jim Norris at TankU a big ol' thumbs up for three great 4" T. gigas clams and one extra gift of an awesome 4" squamosa!! Everything was packed extremely well, plenty of water and everything healthy and happy! This is order # 3 from him and as always, excellent customer service and excellent quality and prices!

Hi Bill,

Glad you got your T. gigas. Know you love them

Bill,
Got back from the show. I did not see your gigas in the Harbor Aquatics booth! I was really planning on bringing him home to Austin. I understand from JT he maybe in your tank already???? The pictures JT took were AWESOME! Here is alittle eye candy of the big guy!

Bill,
Yes that is my big whopper. He has a new 300 gallon tank coming this Friday. I now share your passion for gigas clams. Here is a picture of the 120 he is in.

Jim,
You've got way to many acros in there and not enough clams

If you need to clean house,I'm willing to take them of your hands

Jokes aside,very nice tank.

Hippopus · 10-02-2002, 02:06 PM

Gene,
Your right. The big guy has taken the place of many clams. Luckly I have several other tanks and a big one coming. Acros, I am afraid I am addicted! Gene, I do have a acro from the Marshall Islands that I would like to frag and trade or give. I have had it about ayear and a half. I want to do this because it is the rareist coral I have. I will be switching everything over to my new 300 gallon. In case if something happens I would like a backup. Are you interested?
Jim

***zhenya*** · 10-02-2002, 04:31 PM

Sure am Jim.Thanks for the offer,when it's ready to be fraged just let me know and I'll buy one or trade if you like something for it.Just let me know what you're looking for.

Hippopus · 10-02-2002, 05:08 PM

Gene,
I will trade! Go to my website under sps second picture down on the left is the coral. At night time the coral turns a deep dark purple and the polps are yellow.

As of this past Friday, the 8" gigas is finally in Bills tank and doing great according to the email he just sent me.

Now he is looking for pics from the 18" gigas we just got in on Saturday.

Unfortunately, I'm still stuck in Florida til tomorrow night.
