Sweet poem SH, but you've unnerved me... I can just see it, Christmas eve and my room flooded. Believe me though, I know what it's like to have a secret detractor...

I looked at the following posts and for a few seconds I thought we were having a bit of a reunion... Nav, Chac and Miagi.

Dont say that, I'm going out of town for Christmas, leaving the tank care to a few not so aquaria-savvy young ladies. I hope to God I dont come home to soggy carpet

Thanks all..it was written during the JBJ tank cracking furor...when most people were eyeballing those beautiful 30G Oceanic tanks..which I still love. My tank still has that hairline and it never budged. The fans are failing, but, otherwise, the tank is still in pretty good shape. SH

A Song For The Holidays
By Gary Robinson, 12/22/98
Edited By Elizabeth M. Lukan, 12/2/99

The happy acroporas
Are lighting their menorahs
All the little tube-worms
Are swaying in a chorus

Humming protein skimmers
Blinking halide dimmers
They all work to make the
Water nice for swimmers

Christmas bells are ringing
Water pumps are singing
And coral tentacles
Take a break from stinging

Cleaner shrimp are meeting
Feelers wave in greeting
And when food arrives the
Triggerfish are eating

It's the festive season
They all know the reason
Thanks to XMas money
The tank will be breezin'!
