I thought it was funny answering the door last night to give out cany to the kids and then have to answer questions to the parents. My tank is close to the front door and can be seen easily so as I tried to hand out the candy I was also answering questions and taking compliments. One of the funnier ones was "are we going to the purple house?"

We ran out of candy so hubby almost started fraggin! :-D

Ok I got one for you here. I open the door a little girl standing maybe 2Ft. tall. peaks through the door sees the tank & runs in to check it out. Dori she's yelling, of course Nemo had to come up. Mom was like oh my god my shy child! I'm so sorry, it was to funny.

My wife was watching TV, & this little girl jumped her feet to get to the tank.

Too Funny! I gave her lots of CANDY!!! just to cute.

Sounds like when my sister brings my 2 year old nephew over to my house, as soon as he steps through the front door he runs into my living room and stands in front of my tank. He also learned to climb on the couch next to it in order to get a closer look. Then I learned not to leave my mag float at that end of the tank! lol

I'm surprised more of us haven't had the cops come knocking on the door with a drug warrant and a dog.

Pete, The purple house? Do we need to have a meeting to discuss the topic of balancing spectrums? What did you do, get a good price on actinics in Charlotte?
