It comes with all of that.
good score!!! I am not fond of "wall of rocks" in a tank. I like a few so called islands of rocks. Gives fish a chance to claim a island while other claim another. I think it helps keep down the fighting.. also helps with flow in the tank....but that is just me and what I like. only my suggestion and not to offend anyone else ideas...
 
Guy with the cheato got back to me last night.
Mysteriously shipped it out yesterday.. .
Hmmm...
Guess we'll keep fingers crossed. :upside-down-face:
 
I really want a wild turkey to deep fry! Been trying to get one for a few years. We don't hunt.
I hit a big Tom with my pickup windshield does that count as a hunt? Glass in my mouth, ears, and down my shirt. Very difficult to drive home with a caved in windshield.

This is the picture the guy I'm buying it from sent me. It will be very different when I get it.

Oh my God. That would be terrible! Are you ok?

Are we still talking about Turkeys? These visited my bird feeder.

I have some that come to my yard as well I love to watch them. Especially the big Tom's during breeding season when they strut around and gobble and make the cool drumming sound they make.
 
I found fair to you a bit of my background so you know to who you speak with. I am french, 39 yo, married and have a little princess nearly 4. Anyway thank you all to spend time to answer when us novices we have doubt or lack of knowledge. Objective of the tank, a selfishness to bring a part of ocean to me as I love diving/snorkelling and also bring my little one to enjoy the same with her daddy.
