Re: NFC: adopt-a-tank opp
I have several. The one I would give you is not the one I collected when we
went to Mukwonago, his coloring is way too cool to give him up. I have a
smaller one that I would give to you. Do you want me to ship it or would
you be willing to meet in the middle somewhere, like Gurnee? I don't think
Crayfish ship too well. They have a tendancy to puncture the bags.

Sure, I'll take it if you don't want it. Is it doing a number on
your plants? :)
