The 180's looking pretty good these days. I'll have to post some pics. The 65 and my nano are the ones that need a little help. I was hoping to use my winnings from the last meeting to stock my nano but I have no idea where they wound up :o Damn Yuengling!

Phil, I have slurp gun you can try. It's pretty usefull for catching tropicals when we dive. It may work equally well in a tank. This is all theory of course, as I've never tried it personally.
Got ya covered Tom. I'll try to remember to bring it in to work tomorrow and drop it off during the day. PM me if I forget 'cause I'm still not thinking too clearly today!
