  1. I would suspect the pleco. Just get a good glass cover to keep them in.
  2. Blast...I cannot remeber the taxon, but I do know that they are from estuaries and need fairly brackish to marine conditions.
  3. Veils are just the most common of lines, so many betta-snobs (like Chris :P ) look down on them. Personally, I far prefer wild-types (plakats) and other species (like imbellis, smaragdina, etc), but I still think that a nicely coloured veil is worthwhile.
  4. Is that a piece of styrofoam cup? Someone online suggested to try squares of that styro mesh that they put on apple-pears....it works fabulously!
  5. Should have been at the CAS meeting on Tuesday...there was a pair of young adult (breeding age) BNs in the auction.
  6. At Big Al's? Last time I was in there several of the other tanks on that system, were full of ich.
  7. Welcome to the board, Melanie!
  8. I currently have: Corydoras aeneus (regular bronze colouration) C. aeneus 'green laser' C. gossei C. sterbai C. elegans C. duplicareus C. delphax C. trilineatus C. julii C. schwartzi C. barbatus C. panda C. paleatus C. punctatus C. rabauti C. sodalis C. oiapoquensis C. melanisticus C. leucomelas C. pygmaeus C. arcuatus I am tempted by the metae and hasbrosus that Riverfront currently has, but just do not have enough tank space just now.
  9. Powdering flake works well...as do small live foods like microworms, or frozen like daphnia...or even a tiny bit of hard-boiled egg yolk.

    Well Hi

    Welcome to the board...sorry to hear you need to sell stuff.
  11. I don't have one at present, so I borrow my mum's (he is pictured here at 10 months old and 130lbs...he turned one last week, and is well on his way to 165lbs):
  12. Even nicer than they looked in the bag.
  13. Really? Damn! I wanted a pair of those and was coming by tomorrow. :mad:
  14. Apistos, babeee! Dunno....nice 1"-2" jewels go for about $6-$10 each.
  15. Depending on the exact species, males tend to have much larger and prominant 'bristling' than females.
  16. Very nice...getting some size on them since I last saw them.
  17. Welcome to the board. Damn, looks like I missed the cam before lights-out!
  18. All of the plants I auctioned today looked to be in excellent condition, so not much to worry about, I should think.
  19. I have already put a CAS pleco fancier on their trail!
  20. Great new logo...even if it doesn't have a bichir in it. :P

    Hello

    Welcome to the board!
  22. How much is it? I ran into a chap all ready to buy the one at the new PetLand (130 ave.) today for $850 (over $900 after gst) and told him that you guys had one that was easily as nice, and that I thought it was either $499 or $599.
