    That's a pretty sweet pico. When I saw that I tried talkin my girlfriend into gettin one like that and I could clean it every time I'm over(she said no, haha). I'll have to check it out once you move to Cherokee!

    thats too bad you couldn't get her talked into it! :)

    Give her the charming response next time that every time she looks at it, the tank will remind her of you!

    worth a shot! :)
