I love babynames.com. You can even narrow it down to names per ethnicity.

Gabriel is one of my favorite boy names.
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

Max is an awesome name. I have a friend from Hong Kong named Max. My other friend calls him Maxi-Pad, and of course he doesn't get it. :) Or maybe not such a great name for a native English-speaker! :lol: But I like it!

Idk about Roman, but I love Ronan! And Jamie, Ian, Reuben, Charlie, Demitri, Bane, Tristan, Sidney, Sean, Orlando, Robin, and William.

Hey LGP what does LDK mean :redface:

I cannot stand the name Ronan, it's the name of an Irish pop star over here and he's a complete Tool :D

I like Bane though

I wondered if you might do that. And I thought about clarifying, but it would have been too funny if you did! :lol:

Re: Change of plans (can an admin move this to freshwater tanks)

Post by TheBlueMeanies »

ok so we are holding off on a saltwater tank for now to save money that would have gone to salt .. we started to cycle the tank and added some gravel and plants. i will be getting more plants and some driftwood soon. the plan is to add our 6 tiger barbs we have now to the 55 gallon when its done cycling and try to find some dwarf puffers later on.. 1 problem i have now is i cant find any LFS that has DPs .. :( i called all the petsmarts in the Indianapolis area and none of them have DPs and they cant order them either :( If anyone has any ideas on where to get them or what would be some other cool options for a 55 gallon with 6 maybe 9 tiger barbs i would love to know .. here is what the tank looks like now..fake plants with some nice rocks
Image
well i got some more plants and some cool rocks today so here is what my tank looks like now..
