  1. I think we should do a cntesst most gallons of tanks per year of age you are :smokey: naw photow contests would be good judged on the photo and the fish/ whatever in the photo. or a convict breeding contest. next meeting/auction or whatnot we all get cnvicts and the first to breed winns

  7. oh shucks well how big does a female umbee get? could it go in a tank 200 gallon with a midas jewels jag convict and salvini?
  8. no other fish like a midas or gt or festae
  9. how big is your tank? if I wanted a breeding pair in a 6 foot by 2 foot b 2 foot where the female would be swiming with the other fish and the male would be sectioned off with a door. how much room would I need on the male's side? btw how big is your tank and congrats
  10. I called rivrfront and they said they have no such thing. hey rahim how cheap can your contact get glass?
  11. that is what camera's are for my friend. if I did a ood job do you think I could make 100 dollars off it with a sump and tubing
  12. thanks that is what I thought. I let my silt sit in the hot hot water for about 4 hours and then rinsing it off
  13. wow it beautifull. is there any ray that could go in an 18" wide that isnt thaat expensive? congrats you lucky lou
  14. can you put regular silk plants in your aquarium? the ones you would buy fro michles? they feel the same as the aquarium silks but im not sure. if not is there anything you can do to them to make them aquarium frendly
  15. i always bike up to the sev. every thursday and look through the bargain finder, not buy the paper but read :ph43r: once they even made my buy it after 5 minuts of looking though it

  17. oh your right I just saw the pic of her tank. pretty stocked up compared to my 90 gal sorry
  18. drain half the tank or as low as your filters will go that is what I always do yowzer that is a nasty one. you think is was self inflicted or did another fish open up a can of whoopiezy :guns: yea malifax is great when I have a problem in my big tank I drain half and put extensions on my power filters and run those draining = less volume of water = less melafax = less money spent o yes I am so cunning :smokey:
  19. lol i have checked the bargain finder for the past few months and nothing. :mad: well I will sill kep looking
  20. glass around 9mm non tempered, something to make an aquarim out of tank would b 63" x 22'' x 24" extra credit school project. if I make it I will probably sell it
  21. im confused what is with rudy and canucklehead are they one person with a split personality? no seriosly
  22. well I sure hope this goes allong. I just ot another fish so no room here unless I can get another tank but that is a slim shot, my dad is mad about the raised elec. bill from my last one. just as a heads up here is a list of all the wild fish jeff has just incase soemeone wants to breed them and maybe widen the alberta genepool if you want a list of f1's just ask and I know that you can see all these on his site but they are all jumbled. this is neat and orderly and if I missed any .... :chair: dont talk about it
  23. he does I forget what it is but its something simular to gold's
  24. im looking for someting 5-5.5 feet long. 2 feet wide and 2-? feet high tank with glass top for not to much, <300 if anyone can give me a shout if there are any deals like this that would be great.
  25. ok I got a pair of "breeding" jewels and put the alone in a 18"x18"X18" tank. they are not very big so I thought that would be big enough. for the first little while they where really excited but they now seem a bit lathargic. also they both have symetrical blackish olive markings on their head and back and the male has a slight yellow tinge. are these normal non-breeding colors? could they be sick? if so with what sickness what can I do to "boost the mood" if you know what I mean the water peramiters are normal and they are sectioned off from the other fish by a tank divider.
