  1. Yes, that is how lots of ray keepers keep there rays.
  2. There is a good one on GARF.org
  3. whats the chances of you being able to get ahold of electric blue dempseys? I can't believe how helpful people are on this site it's great! thanks again for all the help. As far as I know EBJD are not wild caught they are a domestic strain.
  4. Depends on what you are looking for, Natures Corner is by far the best, Big Als has had some nice stuff in the past, super Family pets in the Park has a decent selection but it goes quick when it comes in. Other then that not many other places around town that carry more then the "basics".
  5. Every care sheet I have seen for any arowana says mis 70's to mid 80's so it seem the both are right. I have not had an arowana yet, but I do want to get a black and will be keeping my tank at the same temp as I keep my SA tank right now, 79f.
  6. The short answer is the bigger the better, the longer answer would be minimum 72"x36"x24" or about 250 gallons. For filtration I would recoment a sump system with a volume of around 80 gallons, I would pack it with some form of bio media, most likely pot scrubers. You can build a bio tower in to the sump all you need is something to hold the media and a way for the water to drip through it. Look around the DIY section of this site, monster fish keepers, and reef central, you will see good filter builds. I hope this helps you out, I dont want you to run away from the hobby because it seems too over whelming, good luck with your fishy future.
  7. Wow, I guess they sacrifice a few for the good of the many. I will have to keep an eye out for the follow up study.
  8. Aren't they one in the same? Potamotrygon Leopoldi = leo = black diamond http://stingraysource.com/

    pfo lighting

    Wow now I have lots of reading to do, I think I might just end up doing alot of DIY LED lights, I have lots of tanks that I want to use them on. Most of my tanks wont be planted so I wont need lots of light.
  10. Sorry I deleted mine so I can't forward it to you

    Air Pump Types

    You can look here, look at the rena 400. you will need something like this. You can look here, he sells lots of good pumps and air driven filters.

    Hmmm I was hoping that the prices would have come down from when I first saw them 3 or 4 years ago. Dose any one know a good place to get LED lights for a planted tank?

    pfo lighting

    I am looking for some infor on the LED lighting systems I cant seem to find them at all any where, dose any one know what happened to them?
  14. Wow you have great collection going on there, very inspiring. You should post some pics of you build in the DIY section I would love to see a build that big.
  15. I wish I could, nice fish, but $15 for an otto :boxed:
  16. If you vacuum seal them you can buy in bulk and make smaller bags that will increase you over all shelf life. Also vacuum packing will incease shelf life because of the lack of O2 in the bag.
  17. Of course something good comes to Ontario and I will be leaving the last week or April, lol. :boxed: Maybe I will get posted to Trenton so I can go.
  18. I can make the side of my F150 say FX5 if you want :rofl: I don't think that you get a heater in to an FX5, I think the pressures might be too high. I have seen people do it before with smaller canisters you just drill a small hole in the top and use some good aquarium safe epoxy to seal around the cord, you have to cut the cord and get some heat shrink tube to put it back together.
  19. As long as you fish can swim with out any trouble then your ok. I didnt think that you can over filter but you can over power.
  20. Wow it sure is taking them a long time to get these things out to the stores.
  21. It would help if we knew what you are looking at using one for. For a muti tank system they are great but for just about anything else they are a waist of money.
  22. My parents have had a hard plastic pond shell for about 5 years now, it is out side every winter and has never cracked.
