LOL! id love to see pics of your 60g reef! why are you "done with fish tanks?"

ORCHIDS LOL I'm done cleaning, treating diseases, buying expensive fish only to have the die a couple months later for no good reason. Sorry but I got rid of my setup long before I got a digital camera. I was a die hard film shooter until I need to post photos of orchids on the OB. There will be a day when you do the same thing.LOL

Me too, been there done that since I was 11. Nice Angels and Hatchet fish, Bob ! My last is a 55 gal that's been sitting in the basement for 20 years and used only once for a Wardian Case orchid display exhibit in 2007. Last fish I had were 2 - 12" Gars, and a Plecostamus (sp?).

I graduated out of the small fish fixation because they never lasted long like Dave said. Even if you got them as new babies they don't have that long of a life span and buying them at pet stores = you never know how old they are. Anyhow, I went with what I KNEW I could keep a LONG time and settled for Pangassius Catfish (Iridescent Sharks), and regular Gars that I had for about 10 years before I had to move from VA to OH !!!

No pix, Bob, the last time I had fish was 1992 and I don't even think they had invented digital cameras then ! I had a GREAT Nikon auto-focus, one hand camera but you couldn't stop the flash and that DOESN'T work when facing a fish tank !!!
