I'm Mike. I've been sober (tankless) for 4 years. I feel like I am about to fall off the wagon (again) and am in the very early stages of planning another setup.

Last tank was a 36x36x18 cube with 8 bulb T5 lighting.

Sucks when you have to make repairs, especially costly repairs.

shouldn't take long to swap out, especially if I get an air compressor and a couple new toys... I mean tools...

You can save some money like that.

well considering I got quoted 795 bucks for them to swap it out for me yeah ill save a ton. no idea why they want to charge so much. they get parts cheaper than I do, and its 18 easily accessible bolts, 4 bolts that you gotta work for, 4 bolts that's gotta be taken off with an air gun, then reverse. itll only take a shop about 2 hours or so. at 70 an hour plus parts it should only cost around 300... not 795!

Naw,local elections, I don't really bother. They how they chose you for jury duty too. If it's like governor or president I'll go usually, but not always for small elections.
