k9outfit Posted May 17, 2005 Report Share Posted May 17, 2005 They had 3 bigger Acei that went for under 20 bucks Oh well; there's LOTS more where those came from.... Maybe they'll go for more next auction? :smokey: And "FishieRuffio"'s fry list sounds awefully familiar! Neat forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were beautiful. I hope mine grow up to have that nice of a purple/deep blue. As for the petricolas there was some at big als but they were pretty expensive and only about 1". PJs on the southside had some for 14$ but i didn't really get a good look and i dont' shop there so i dont' know the quality of their fish.

k9outfit Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 My personal experience has not been good with fish from PJ's (south side). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

African_Fever Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 Great looking setup! All you need now is a solid coloured background and you appear to be set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishieRuffio Posted May 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 where did you get the rocks...???Where did you end up calling for the pool filter sand??? I'm pulling these from memory, but IIRC... The rocks were from a landscaping place called Burnco Rock Products in the city...they were $0.19/lb (I bought 160lbs of rock!) The sand is Target brand Pool Filter Sand - we had to call around to find it, and I can't remember the name of the store that we ended up at - I will ask the lady-friend when she gets back into town (they call her "the better half" for good reason - if it wasn't for her, I'm sure that my tank would be bare-bottomed and full of dead fish). Thanks for the compliments, everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majestic_Aquariums Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 Your tank looks great! I like the rock, and the way you have it arranged. (good price, too!) Looks like 50 lbs. of substrate was enough, too. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RD. Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 The tank looks great, and will look even better once a background is in place. FYI - the rock is limestone, here's a link to Burnco's web site, scroll down to Limestone Boulders. http://www.burnco.com/RetailWeb/web/retail...=04&siteid=1401 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunl Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 I love limestone, it's in all my tanks and has replaced the rounded field stone I used to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishieRuffio Posted May 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 Looks like 50 lbs. of substrate was enough, too.Rob Actually, we used two full bags of sand...so, 100lbs of substrate is in there It was...interesting to rinse...to say the least. And yeah, I think I'll pick up a background at some point in the next week. If only there were more hourse in a day.... :hey: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
