  1. One of the world's top betta fighters and trainers, too.
  2. Larger corys and talking cats are just fine with leaf fish.
  3. I concur....keeping the two together is risky at best.

    BNs!

    Good stuff. I bred BNs a few years ago using a shallow terracotta plate as well...I got the idea after someone I knew had produced a number of batches with his BNs spawning under a piece of slate.
  5. Thats OK, a few that I have in active service, likely predate all three of us. They look like this:
  6. I try to get all the moyos down at the shop on it as well...gives for a much more varied and complete diet.
  7. The CAE tends to stick to the sides and bottom, with the occasional quick dart...the leaf-fish will tend to notice and target more actively, free-swimming fishes...like guppies.
  8. Their colour can change drastically, based, apparently, on mood. Mine would go very dark as soon as prey was introduced to the tank, but lighten-up considerably after feeding.
  9. Possibly, although the swimming patterns of the CAE may not attract the leaf-fish's attention.
  10. Some of the more original polo lights....circa 1988-1990.
  11. Feeders certainly, but Polycentropsis are freshwater.
  12. I would love to carry the larger size, but the 125g is a slower seller than most of the other formulas, and I would not like to sit on a bunch of 250g containers more than a few short weeks. Perhaps if a few people would like them, I could bring in an order if I felt that at least ½ was already sold.
  13. Sorry, no....I do not carry them at Riverfront, and if Gold Aquariums does not, I think you are out of luck (since I am certain Petland does not). On the other hand, we do have the 125g containers on for 20% off until month's end for CAS and Riverfront club members.
  14. Buy a guide, go wild: http://www.amazon.com/Tiger-Beetles-Albert...s/dp/0888643454 http://www.entsoc.org/pubs/periodicals/AE/..._of_alberta.htm
  15. Fortunately most of my tanks are downstairs, so most are pretty good...some of the upstairs ones are pushing 86ºF, though. Had a customer in today whose reef tank hit 94ºF yesterday.
  16. That is terrible...sorry to hear it.
  17. I doubt you....I need to see your belief with my own eyes. :P Are you sure that was an actual spruce beetle and not you, believing you were a spruce beetle? :eh:
  18. So you doubt John's existence?
  19. Really? What issue? I will have to read that, as I have known John for years now...worked together on a couple of projects, actually.
  20. Ditto with mine, although they only ever ate the occasional pellet.
  21. Very nice...John Acorn would be proud (he has a thing for native beetles).
  22. That leaf fish can eat some surprisingly large prey....I would suspect that he made your other fish disappear.
