Wingin' It

Hahahaha...dang! There is a video going around where this guy in Texas is fishing on a lake and comes across a big mouth bass swollowing a similarly sized big mouth bass...he picks them up out of the water, and put them back in the lake and the both swim away! Guess it happens in nature too!

My son is so excited to bring his 'show' fish! LOL

I REALLY want some triops...

I don't remember who sold them, but there were some at the CAS auction last month! Went pretty good too!

I saw some go through one of the ACE auctions...they went ok. Nothing outrageous. I think they went for under $10 though. I could be wrong though...I am getting older and my memory isn't always completely accurate...lol

I'm hoping to place the order by the end of this week so act fast!

The mr fishclubgirl and I dropped into the ne petsmart and they had a 3 day sale. There is some nice red wag platies for 1.75, rainbows for 2 dollars, sailfin mollies for 4.86 and some other sale fish(that I wasn't interested in, can you tell??). So if you feel like braving the roads, there's deals to be had(and they have nice big brochis for 6 dollars too).

Oooo...I may have to drop in to take a gander...(hahaha...I said that at the Innisfail livestock auction a few weeks ago and someone took me literal and thought I was there to buy a Goose!)

I bought some really awesome looking angels...freakin' amazing fins! They were practically flying out of the tanks! I think there were around 50 and by the time I got mine there were only 20ish left!

Percy is adorable!

Fantastic tank! I also have pygmy cories..at night they even school! Luv 'em!

I've bought fish from Rich many times, and he's great to deal with. We might be able to get a deal if we put together a group order...

Fantastic Idea!

Awesome...I might just have to try them out!

Wishy I could go ,I wish someone from Calgary will buy extra dwarf cichlids so I can get some haha

Well Eugene...if you care to give me some money i'll buy up all the dwarf cichlids I can get my grubby hands on...lol

Ya, just me...I had some family hand pick me some PFRs, Rilis and Oranges back in December. I was planning on doing it again back in Feb. I think it was...with a group order, but the darn supplier was being a bully...I think he just thought he saw opportunity...I don't respond nicely to that way of business.

I got my most recent shrimp, the CBS, from the group order that Ron did last week. They reside with the PFRs in the Ebi, while the Orange reside in a 10 gallon with a bunch of Java moss...nothing fancy...just wanted them to breed fast and often! Oh and the PFRs and Orange (and Rili, just not in the pics yet) came direct from Bangkok, Thailand in December.

It's cause you're doing all this travelling...lol

I'd say keep the leaves out of the water.

probably the same people who do that to mollies...

How in the world did it survive??!! No food, low to no oxygen in the water...predatory birds?! Crazy!

if I can find an empty tank???

hahahahaha...I keep telling you that you don't need the couch! Stick it in the lobby and then you have room for at least 2 more tanks! lol

with their eyes being so big they look like sesame street characters...lol

Yay! Baby shrimp are so entertaining! Congrats!

Wow! Great shots on the little ones!

Update with new CBS and pics of the Orange shrimp!

Oh ya, and CPOs.

I've done the 2L pop bottle and the recipe of sugar, yeast and water...no baking soda. I've never had it blow up on me. I never did use a diffuser, just hooked the airline into the intake of the HOB Filter.

Really nice looking fish! I like the tank setup as well!

Is there a plant I can put in the tank that the cichlids will eat but will grow fast enough to replace itself??

You can always try plants...less expensive plants...lol Cichlids don't tend to touch Java Fern or Anubias 'cause they're typically tied to driftwood and apparently they taste bad. You might try other plants like Giant Vals or stick to plants that you don't mind keeping in pots (so that the fish don't dig them up).
