Yes, it is bizarre; more than doubling the rent, suddenly. I don't now where
the "marine aquarists" meet, but we can talk to them, maybe we can work
something together, only different days. Could be an interesting experience.
After all, they are our "the other half".

was not that long ago that they raised it to the $100 if I remember
correctly.  I am surprised they are taking this action with us....we have
been very good customers of theirs.  Oh well....times change I suppose.
