What are you buying yourself for Christmas? lol

What are you getting YOURSELF for Christmas?? Come on, I know we all do it....we use the excuse of Christmas to buy what we didn't get from Santa! I just splurged a bit on Black Friday for myself!

1. I'll be treating myself to setting my tanks all back up, meaning some sponge filters and small equipment is going to be needed.
2. Also a couple of hefty orders of discus (Though this might be after Christmas and the tanks get going of course)
3. I also just ordered myself 2 new computer monitors...yes 2 very nice 24" Samsung LCD flat screens! Very Happy GOTTA love Black Friday.

Most of all I'm just glad i'll be able to be home to celebrate it with family. So what are you treating yourself to this Christmas? hehe

Welcome home Matt.
Really, that's the best gift.
I ventured out today and took advantage of a Petsmart deal. 10g with hood for $15.00.

Hmm... not sure yet
Thinking of maybe buying myself the sweet monitor I saw at London drugs, it works as both a tv and a computer screen. Would be perfect for a dual screen for my laptop.

Sigh no black friday here for me so I'll wait till boxing day

I splurged today and bought myself numerous items: 2 shirts, a purse, a 10g fish tank with hood, a tennis bracelet, a pair of earrings, a movie, and a full body massage at the spa.

Now I'm trying to convince everyone they need to give me gift certificates to the spa for Christmas!

Well, my Christmas present to myself, is possibly a used 125 gallon long with stand for $300. My LFS has it but he's thinking of maybe putting his 3 Piranahs in it, since they are in a 55 gallon. I am deff getting a 125 gallon come Spring, so my present to myself is a canister filter if I don't get the used tank now. Can't set it up until Spring anyways. I figured start buyin a few things now.

Hello Slug! WELCOME HOME! I just bought a Nikon CoolPix digital camera! Yeah!!!!
There is one more thing on my shopping list for myself and my fish. A 32" Vizio flat screen TV for my fish room. The fish can watch the TV when I'm not home

I've been treating myself all year to early Christmas presents with the 20+ tanks I've gotten from Craigslist. The most I'll probably do for myself at this point will be some headphones so I don't have to hear "Mom, I'm bored" for awhile

This is my gift to me.

I have been getting myself a lot of things... just not for christmas I'm so busy all the time T_T but I've bought some new dress shirts :P and a bunch 3 Colombian tetras and 3 phantom tetras I didn't get any new aquatic plants yet because I've got a lot of them my amazon swords are doing fine ... but I might ask my friends to get me the T5HO lights xD I hope they can get me it... but then again.. I'd have to get them something as expensive as what they are going to get for me too I hope they do otherwise I wouldn't go out buying the 32 gb iPod touches for all of them HAHA!
