Wyoming, brrrr!
:D Hi guys :wub:

I decided to expand my fishroom to include species other then bettas :thumbs: I did a lot of research to decide what would work best for me and I decided to go with guppies and kribs :p

I found some breeders and I bought four trios of guppies, and a breeding pair of kribs as well as receiving a TON of info on breeding and set-ups :flex:

So, I had to add some new shelves, and this is still not complete, but here's some mid-point shots :)

Ok, view when you first walk in, the betta motherload :flex: Bettas to the second to last shelf and extra tanks and my net dip bucket on the bottom ;)

edit~the kritter keeper that's only half full has a fish with a ruptured swim bladder and that's about all the water he can handle and still be able to breathe and eat -_-

Moving clockwise, my disgusting 55 betta grow out :X Hard water stains are killer, and I need to get on that :*) Right now it just has parakeet food and a sweater :look:

I have my air pumps and tubing stored in the stand too :p

Last one :p The new shelf that's in progress :flex: I'm gonna add a row of 5's at the very top for guppies. The two on the next shelf are guppy tanks. Below that are my kribs and I'm adding a second tank to that row too. Below that is a betta spawn tank, and I have a second one of those too, but it's in the kitchen sterilizing :thumbs:

On either side of this shelf are my parakeets and then just a supply/betta jar shelf :)

edit~you can also see I have an empty row at the bottom sized for kritter keepers because I am quickly running out of betta space :look:

Looks great, Stephani! :hyper: And congrats on the new fish! You got 4 trios?!!! :eek: :hyper:

I bet that was crazy expensive! :blink:


I want a fish room....... :grr: Other than my bedroom, that is. -_-
 
Thanks guys, I know the walls out there are horrible :sick: Thank the fishroom rabbit I used to have for that :blink:

Yes the guppies were a pretty penny, but I decided I want to start right :thumbs:

Couple clarifications...The guppy tanks aren't entirely full as they are both going to be divided in order to breed the lines true and my dividers don't reach to the top. Also, all the tanks will have hoods, but I am in need of bulbs first, and I'm too lazy to put the hoods on first with no lights :look:

Excuse that tan colored tank, it's something like 25 years old and the hood that matched it is long gone :S
 
Looks great ............somebodies going to very busy this winter , and I'm not talking about the fish either :lol:

Oh it's tons of fun :rolleyes: The fishroom is outside, and I have pipes out there, but no water hookups, so I'm carrying buckets everyday in and out of the house :S It's already well below zero here so that's always fun :lol:
