Shai Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 I'd like to share! :3 is my most recent creation, a "photostream" (slideshow) showing how my 55g has evolved since 2006. It has video and photos in it. is a bit older and contains strictly video showing my fish at feeding time. : ) shows my copper blue betta Tiamat in a 5g. He's since been upgraded to a divided 10g that he shares with another betta. features Caesar when I had him in my 33g tank (currently empty). Alas, Caesar recently passed away. : ( Now I have two females (Sheba and Cleo) who have no suitor!I have photostreams still to create from when I had other tanks setup. When I finish them I'll post links. : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishful Thinking Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Thanks for sharing all of those videos and pictures! I love watching the shrimp munch on algae. Caesar was a stunning creature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RD. Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Wow, that 55 gallon has come along ways. Great job on the aquascaping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceturf Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Lol the 55 gallon vid is pretty cute, Bissell the bristlenose seems to act like a ferret. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shai Posted September 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) Yeah, poor Caesar. : ( That's what I get for going away for the weekend. Sigh... I never got any fry out of him either. He and Sheba went through the motions and even dug themselves a little nest in the tank once, but couldn't figure out what to do next. : \ Then after I got Cleo he couldn't decide between the two of them. I'd like to try some of Patrick's Ruby Greens since they like higher pH water compared to GBRs...but I also don't want to give up on my GBRs! I'm pretty happy with how the 55g turned out. I had a lot of trouble with it in the beginning and the aquascaping just never seemed to come out right. I think it helps that I got such a great piece of wood as the centerpiece. Couple of times before now I've considered ditching the tank but I'm glad I didn't. Bissell is a real brat. : ) Every time I see him at feeding time I always think of the seagulls from "Finding Nemo". He tries to take all the pellets or wafers for himself and it's hilarious when he finds out I spread them across the length of the tank--he can't be everywhere at once and gets pouty at being thwarted! I've had him for quite a while now...still no bristles. , a montage of tanks I used to have. The 10g was my first tank after years of not having one (can't you tell?). I went from the 10g straight to the 55g and then picked up the 20g and the 33g later. I still have these tanks but only the 10g is still in use at the moment (divided betta tank). The 20g is a "high" and I'd much prefer a "long" if I could ever find one...so it's dry. My 33g is currently serving duty as a receptacle for pop bottles that need recycling. : | I know, horrible use for a tank! But once my friend can take back her bettas that I have been looking after (and I get to the bottle depot) I'm going to set up the 33g again as a big betta barracks.
