i got an great suggestion on how to kill alota noise from my durso ( i'd heard it before but the unanimous voice of the meet made it seem crazy not to try it)
and MR has always been a major source of help with my tank......
i'll offer to host a connecticut/westchester pig roast this spring or summer in stamford. i picked up a pig roaster a few years ago and it seems a shame not to use it mor often. you all bring beer and i'll spring for a medium size pig. isnt that expensive and i'll still consider myself ahead.
go for the summer months and you could try dipping yourself and your favorite livestock in the pool.
come to think of it, jason's (see thread on Greenwich Aquaria) is only a few miles down the road from me and its gotta be open by then.....
