Wingin' It

I had Sicyopterus and they were cool. One day they just up and died so unfortunately my experience and observations are limited.

I personally have not tried keeping fish outdoors, but while I was in Thailand last year I noticed that people did keep guppies and platies in outdoor clay containers. They used giant lillies and hornwort inside. I saw try in these containers as well so they were not merely surviving. When I walked the fish markets the temperatures were up near 40°C!! I'm also interested to read others' experiences!

Have you heard?! Spencer Jacknnis coming to the Calgary Aquarium Society meeting to as a guest speaker on June 13th at 7pm!!! Come one and come all!!!! Where: Crescent Heights Community Association 1101 2 St NW, Calgary

Looks like s nice start

Reminder that the Auction is coming!!! April 30th! If you're a member of our club or a fish club, you are permitted 20 lots to sell. Contact Bandi. Auction volunteers are also required!! If you'd like to help make this event a success, please message me.

Actually it's April 30th

Potentially.

It's coming!!!

Welcome back! You should drop by the auction in Calgary next Sunday and pick up some fish!

I buy my shells from the dollar stores

There is a Berghia nudibranch you can use...but they need a constant supply so if you're not cultivating them purposely they starve

Calgary Aquarium Society holds an auction every Fall and Spring. Around 500 lots of fish and fish related items will go up for auction. Show up and buy! No membership required but membership does have its perks...like being able to sell your aquaria.

Lol...very true

I've used tanks the same size with the same damage for years without issue...but there's always a first...

Looks like a Panda Gara

Hahaha...exactly. easier to just not buy there I guess. 😈

I will likely never buy from them ever again...I was steaming mad when I left there.

I went to a pet store today and asked for snails..."what arev you doing with them"...well my puffer will probably eat them. "Oh...ok..I'll be right back..." Two or three minutes later the manager comes by and tells me...we don't sell animals to be eaten. I can't sell you these snails. Ok...what are the Fatheads for? She says, oh...except for those. I say...what about those feeder goldfish...? She says...oh and those. So you DO sell animals to be eaten...what?! While I get why some personal aquarist would care where their aquaria goes...why is it that this particular chain care's at all? And about a snail no less. Just wierd.

Thanks you two! I'm heading over to Eugene tomorrow. If I need more I'll let you know!

Got a new tank and my vision includes a wall of vals...if you're in Calgary and trimming some back...let me know! Thx!

What kind of Puffer do you have in there?

Beautiful

Welcome to the group!

hahaha...If I ever used "Vampire" anything at work with my customers I'm sure I'd be relocated to the basement. lol

In the retail electricity industry we call it Phantom usage...electricity at your finger tips.
