Started writing this post a while ago. Glad I finally got it done and posted.

I finally caught the little bugger!

Ok those of you with out cameras might not really appreciate this as much, but I've tried countless times to try to get a picture of this stupid fish. I could probably show you 50 pictures of this damn thing as a blue blur, but here he is. This time not as much blurring. <BR>

This pic might confuse you for a second and if it does then he/she is happy. Goofball as my gf has so graciously named our urchin came home with us from Pittsburgh. Since it was acclimated and started it's collection it has gathered half a clam shell, a spaghettiworm, a feather duster, many many rocks and, as you can see from the picture, a mushroom. <BR>

Finally this is a good bit of the free stuff I brought home from MANCA. Incase any of you are trying to justify the cost of next years tickets besides the fact that the speakers will be great, the city is awsome, the venders will be numerous, the live stock will be top of the line, we won't be far from a sweet aquarium, and so on and so forth... All the stuff in this picture was free. <BR>

I've made a ton of water the last couple weeks using only the free salt I brought home, and I still have a lot more. We also brought home 3 free teashirts and two packs of frozen Rod's food for free. <BR>

On a final note. Steph and I had a bit of fun with the raffels going on at MACNA, but left a little disapointed that we hadn't won anything.... Well we hadn't yet, but forgot the one last thing that hadn't been decided yet. Steph signed up for a mailing list while we were there and...(for those of you who don't receive their e-mails.) <BR>

YOH! Nice post Jon!
I Used to have a pair of those little Neon Blue gobys. I liked them a lot, even though they are only about an inch long. Little rock hoppers that perch and pose a lot. always fun trying to find them in the tank. or hanging on the glass.

That urchin makes a nice piece of movable art. Maybe you could get a little piece of your xenia to grow on him too??

You did good at MACNA. Lucky thing you took Steph along. Good luck charm, she is. you should be well stocked for a while to feed your farm.
