Yep, without a doubt. I keep a log for my tanks and make updates whenever I add or remove dead fish. Back in 1/23/09 I added two Khulis to the tank that already had two. Nothing else changed. I've got a mutant. :alien:

Thanks for the reply MikeV. The first picture is from about a year ago and the second is one I just took.

Very clever use of fishing line. :thumbs:

Nope. Unfortunately I've never seen it in a LFS. A few years ago Hikari had a promo where if you sent them a competitors empty flake container, they would send you theirs in exchange. Not too shabby of a deal. If I could find it now I probably would start buying it instead of TetraMin.

Has anyone ever heard of a khuli loach losing its stripes? For some reason ~6 months ago, one out of the four turned to a solid colored body. It eats and socializes like the other loaches. My water stats are consistently: Ammonia - 0 Nitrite - 0 Nitrate - 5-10 Any ideas? edit: added topic...

I was about to start a new thread but it seems as if you and I are dealing with the same thing. I recently added 6 rummy noses and within a few days they developed ich. :sly: Then when I was taking a closer look at them, I noticed one of the rummy noses had one black spot on the side of its body...

OK all you youngins' - don't do this one: Many years ago when I was new to doing water changes, I decided I would be smart by saving some time by filling my tank with an outdoor faucet/garden water. Needless to say, the water was too cold and within a day all my fish had Ich. Since I didn't...

I paid $15 (£10) for 6. What are they going for where you all live?

For quite some time now I've had my eyes on rummy noses to add to my tank that has cooper razboras in it. Yesterday I purchased 6 that looked pretty good at the LFS. Now that they have been it the tank for a day, their noses have really brightened more than I expected. :D I now wish I wouldn't...

Thanks for the legwork VaegaVic. "Prime® has a very distinct odor that is similar to sulfur which is completely normal. Also, the presence of small black specks is normal."

I just unsealed a new 250 mL bottle of Prime (water conditioner) and there are many tiny black flecks floating in it. I've been using this product for many years and have never seen this before. Have any of you seen or heard of this weirdness? edit: spelling

I once chose not to unplug my heater before doing a water change because I thought I wouldn't be removing that much water. Yep, you guessed it - CRACKLE POP! :crazy: I never moved so fast in my life to get my hands out of the water. (I really should have known better.) :blush: I will now...

I use a couple of these Coralife units as well. They cost ~$6 and their readings match two other of my glass thermometers - that's good enough for me.

They look like either like a Delphax Cory / False Blochi Catfish (Corydoras delphax) or a Sterba's Cory (Corydoras sterbai).

With a Little Help from My Friends: The Making of Sgt. Pepper by George Martin

AC/DC's latest CD, Black Ice

Good suggestion. I just added it.

I was recently was turned on to the music group Kings of Leon and I think they have a great sound. What are your thoughts on them? Has anyone seen them perform live? edit: added "Don't like them"

Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Poltergeist. :unsure: "They're here" - Carol Anne

Have you listened to anything by Kings of Leon?

What is a VLFS? ????

I've seen the term plywood tank but I don't understand what they are. Could someone explain what they are as well some of the concerns in keeping one?

In general, does anyone take the time to go to their LFS/LPS just to look around and shoot the breeze with the staff even if you aren't planning on purchasing anything?

Today I borrowed from the new section at my library How to Live: A Search for Wisdom from Old People by Henry Alford

Once I jumped from 2 to 6 I saw mine at all hours of the day. They have now become one of my favorite fish.

:unsure: OK, I'll bite. What's Poto?

I don't know about all of you, my fellow Fish Forums friends, but I've been budget conscious about my fish-keeping hobby lately. I would never compromise the health of my fish but at the same time I haven't considered any new major purchases. How are things in your part of the world?

Nice work BA. I especially appreciate all of the photos.

Gumballs. :-

I don't know how Hagen production standards have changed over the years but I've been running the same AquaClear 70 (402) power head nonstop for over 18 years. Not too bad eh? :cool:

The first thing I thought of when I saw 'ugly' was Quasimodo from The Hunchback of Notre Dame

Copper leaking ... I would be a lot more concerned about electricity leaking. :hyper:

Even though this isn't one of your choices, I thought I would share that I've been using the same AquaClear power head non-stop for over 18 years with no problems. :drinks:

I dig ghost shrimp since you can see the food they eat move through them and they are dirt cheep.

I'm probably starting to look like a broken record with all my comments but today I decided to start reading The Count of Monte Cristo by Dumas

Please move this to "Tropical Discussion". I messed up. Thanks

If you could keep only one tank for fish, what would it be? Keep in mind, the tank would be kept where you live and only you would be responsible for maintaining it. Don't be persuaded by big sizes if you dig something like a betta and would only want to keep it solo in a small tank. Also, the...
