Fishy Christmas gifts, lets here what you got!!

[lucky777]

Wondering what kind of fishy presents you all got for Xmas?  I was extremely surprised to actually find some under the tree today. Anyone else get anything?

I was lucky enough to find 3 new books under the tree today.

Back to Nature, Guide to Malawi Cichlids, by Ad Konings.,

Back to Nature-Guide to Tanganyika Cichlids, Ad Konings

and last but not least......

Ad Konings Book of Cichlids and all other fishes of Lake Malawi.

Thanx must go out to my lovely girlfriend

BEWARE gentlemen there are few of these girls out there and if you find them, you MUST keep them

No fishy gifts (unless you count my new 19" flatscreen monitor, which lets me view OVAS bigger.)

I got a couple of fake plants (although, they are actually really really nice ones) and permission to buy more tanks today.  That's cool with me

[KLKelly]

I got mine early    90 gallon and filters!  Hubby built the stand and canopy.

Mother in law actually bought me fish (furcatus) and a filter for the ten gallon.

And of course shopping today!!!!!!!

I got som equipment for my soon-to-be 20g tank. AC50, ebojager heater, nets, and some extra media. I guess I can count this as a fishy gift, I FINALLY got my digital camera! Its an OLYMPUS SP-510 UZ! I love it, takes amazing photo's that I will be posting soon. Then of course I got my reptile related stuff, a new terrarium for my cresties from grandma and a bearded dragon sweater from BITE clothing. Good haul this year !

My husband made a stand for the tank I'm moving from my son's room to mine The kids even helped with the painting! Another very cool thing about it - the pine came from my parents' kitchen cabinets, which they pulled out after 40 years of stalwart service  we have made good use of the wood!

Just finished ordering at the J&L Aquatics Boxing Day Sale...   

American Marine Pinpoint Salinity monitor
American Marine Wireless Thermometer with 4 remote sensors
+ a bunch of other gadgets - enough to get the free shipping!

Got new lighting (2x T-5) for my 29 gallon and had to go buy plants too.   Kept it simple, tough plants (hopefully), Cryptocoryne walkeri (lutea), Microsorum Pteropus "Windeloev', Microsorum pteropus (java fern) and Hygrophila polysperma.

I love the new lighting on the tank, it is very attractive and the hygro is already growing.

I guess the $25 gift certificate for Super Pet can be considered a fishy related item... Will probably be using it towards the purchase of my electric blue jack demsey. Or reptile stuff.

Semi-related, I guess, was the new exo-terra terrarium I got. It's 24x18x24.

$50 gift certificate from Big Al's from my son.

[Adam]

$50 dollars at SP: AC110 and some food...it didn't cover it all

150 gallon, glass covers and pine stand.  I need to find someone to build me a wooden canopy to match, and figure out a way to light 72" economically.
