Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Jason Perillo Protean Terrarium
I too had a very bad experience with Protean Terrarium. I have also talked to at least 5 different people, all with the same experiences. Here is basically how a transaction works with him.
1) The customer pays 100% up front for their order.
2) Jason quotes a date when they will be ready.
3) That date comes and goes.
4) Jason ignores your phone calls, emails, texts, prayers....
5) You get lots of excuses as to why you dont have your tanks. My favorite one is that his phone wasn't working. I know of three people he has used that one on!
6) Hopefully after (usually) months you finally get your tanks.
On top of all this, he would make appointments for him to drop off the tanks or for me to pick them up. Three times in a row I waited for him at our agreed upon time and he never showed and didn't answer his phone. Then he never apologizes for wasting your time...
After my personal experience and first hand accounts you would be crazy to buy anything from this dude unless you really like throwing your money down a deep dark pit.

Too bad I don't have emails...I just called and texted. Too bad I don't have my phone bill to show because I ended up having to call him everyday to try and get a response. But I'm sure if someone does a little bit of poking around they will find plenty of other people with similar circumstances. Just look at Dendroboard.com... he was banned from there because so many people complained.

Why did u start another thread about him? You couldnt post on the one that was already going? It just makes it so much simplier if prospective customers can look at one thread instead of 4 or 5.
