Hi everyone... slowly got out of the hobby a few years ago. Constant moving around made for too much stress on my fish. But looking to get back into it... only problem is I live in BC right now in Kamloops. Does anyone know of a good forum to join? Thanks for all your help!!

PM'd

Right across from Big Al's is a plumbing place that had everything I needed. One stop shop instead of checking all over. I also went to Western Pump just off Barlow cause it was closer for me (in Okotoks)

I have a few projects for the xmas season and will be going to Western Pump again for sure!!

Anyone know where to get some?

Just brought home some new rays from Cheon. 2 ladies and a dude. got them in my new 250G and loving it.

Although the pump I have is super loud... Anyone have some tips on how to make it quieter??

Pics coming... trying to make em smaller so I can upload

there are a bunch of us ray keepers in Calgary area. Totally depends on what you are looking for and how deep your pockets are!

a few pics I like

I'm picking up 2 BD/leos from Cheon also. (1 male and 1 female) He's gonna hold them til early December when I get back from a work trip. Just got a sick 250 G just for them that I'm plumbing up right now...

Plumbing... SUCH A PAIN IN THE BUTT!!!

But it is going to look sick!

As soon as they are home and chillin their new tank I'll post some pics

I feed mine smelts but when I first got him I used a claw to feed him the cut up chunks... he gobbled them up.

lol but I told you that already!!

Nice!!! that a sick deal for you! Super jealous!!

Where did you trade motoros for a leo? thats awesome!!

thanks ck... I will continue with my water changes and hope she is just having fun with the bubbles

So in two different tanks I have stingrays that are just hovering at the top of the tank in the bubbles rising from the airstone in the tank... normal or are they about to grow legs and walk out of the tank... thoughts and or ideas??

Thanks! I'll check out Cascade

Anyone know of a good place in calgary to find aquarium safe black silicone? Got a new 120G but needs some work. want to reseal it to be safe.

Thanks

I am starting up a new 90 gal aquarium I just got off a guy from Kiji. I am going to have it as a community tank but am hoping so save a few dollars where I can. Is there any inexpensive ways to put gravel or a substrate into an aquarium. The gravel at any of the big stores is expensive, especially with the size of tank I just picked up. Someone at work suggested chicken scratch (gravel you can pick up at UFA?) would really appreciate any feed back. The aquarium came with a fluval fx5 canister filter, incase that makes a difference.

Thanks in advance for any help

Hey if you are still looking for gravel I have loads left over from various tanks. I'm starting to go commando in my tanks for my rays. (lol commando is just glass in case you were wondering.) (well I think I'm funny)

If you want it its yours just bring a bucket(s) so I can keep my containers. I have black and then a bunch of multi color

I love it dude!! I built a big pond in my back yard over the last few summers too... Soo much fun and I love falling asleep to the sound of the waterfall. Really kicking myself for not documenting the whole thing to share with people and give them Ideas. When everything open up again in the spring I will post some pics of mine and show it off!

Awesome build!

Cool looking pleco... when they get bigger I'll take 2 if you are selling!

So I got a phone call from one of my staff this afternoon...

90% of my fish in my big 500G at my work were dead. Some time yesterday a breaker tripped and shut off all my filters and air and heat in my tank. 5 rays (11 if you count the 6 babies one of them had some time yesterday also) and a wolf fish gone...

Just wanted to post as I know everyone here will feel my pain. :'(

Love the L-046 and the L-240... where are you selling them?

Right here http://albertaaquati...showtopic=31611

Sweet... can I get a zebra and 2 L-240s

cool thanks

I'm not moving anytime soon but I'd like to know before the time comes and I have to panic and make something up.

Whats the easiest way to move a ray from one tank to another? Also best practice for pups? I know I have female and breeding will happen. Should I make a container to float the pups in or move them to a different tank right after birth?

Any advice would be great!!

Love the L-046 and the L-240... where are you selling them?

Sorry to hear about the loss of sleep dude. I have my rays in a 500G but they are at my work so I sleep like a baby...
