he wants brightly colored, most of those aren't dwarf. I'll figure it out. The Pandas are mature

I looked it up. If he insists on African Cichlids those 4 panda garras will be moving to my 55. with their former tank mates.

I have 4 panda garra in the 100 gallon tank I take care of, and the tropicals got old and moved to my 55. So I was considering angelfish for the tank and my customer wants african cichlids. I don't want dead panda garra. I think they are related to chinese algae eaters, who can live with...

Put a customer pump on. Hope to mow the lawn

I'll bet it was less than when the 75's right front started screaming and I had to have it towed to the shop and they changed the bearing

I think I need to treat the bees again today. I still haven't moved the grass out of the east bed, or mowed. I need to paint the case of a portable sewing machine to make it more marketable, and get a couple of cabinet models ready and on Marketplace. I could have sold 3 sunday if i had had...

they can't. I added too much to my pond yesterday, didn't kill them all but I killed 3. I didn't add a lot of water but apparently too much chlorine not to neutralize it. People came over while I was filling. I turned hose off but I didn't add dechlorinator

I'm afraid to test my tap water. I just hope it's safe to drink

Gardening, then checking mite fall on the bees and visit from daughter and grandkids later

I have wolf spiders all over. The red wasps hunt them. I find them in the house now and then and evict them to the garden

We have tarantulas that have mating seasons, the males come out of their underground dens and go girlfriend hunting, I opened my screen door a couple of years ago and one fell off the top right in front of me. He was about 6 inches wide, that would be what in centimeters? I just encouraged him...

with more hours in a day I could do so much more. I think I'm part border collie, lol ( I used to have a pair of border collie mixes)

I fixed the pond yesterday. Apparently when granddaughter and I emptied it last month we pushed on the milk crates supporting the top basin corner waterfall and made a small tear in the liner. with no child here it got everything out and pressure washed, leaks patched and refilled. Bottom half...

there is a leak in the top basin of my backyard pond. I dug up about 100 Jon Fannick Phlox yesterday that need given away, sold or replanted on the east side. and it's quit raining so I can treat the bees. Fixing the pond leak first, they drink at that pond, I don't want company during the fix

if the 2 that died were smaller males I have an idea what happened. I was looking at Sterbai corydoras last week. How hardy are those?

it might actually be better in my case, since the larger the water change at least in summer, the more likely I am to lose fish. I can't do 50% water changes with just dechlorinated water anymore. I think the pH is rising in my tap water due to lake evaporation

copy and paste from the email I got. Key futures include: Double impurity collection chamber and double valve disposal switch design Collect large particles of impurities separately, and quickly discharged Suitable for tanks with large size or large number of fish Reduce filter cleaning and...

IDK. It just came in my business spam account

selling sewing machines watching it rain

I don't know if the fish will use it. Actually this is a real piece of equipment being marketed to small pet stores. I don't have a small pet store but I still get some of the spam. The Hygger External Fish Toilet coming to a store near you soon. I'll let the people selling them detail the specs.

You hold that water temp at 90 and you can breed discus at a pH of 7.8. i can't, but I know people used to

I used to be able to keep mollies. I should be able to keep mollies. maybe the last mollies I bought just had something wrong with them. I haven't even tried platies in years. Lots of years.... My water should be hard enough for mollies and platies, given the stones my vet took out of my dog

More dollars than sense

I had to bring in Electric Blue Johanni African cichlids from an importer once, I got 4, 2 of which died in quarantine. Customer was willing to spend $200 apiece on them, this was back in about 2000

out of my budget, I thought $35 was spendy

About that tagline of yours, I think that the water in my area makes most fish too hard to keep. Except African cichlids and I don't want to keep them anymore

not really. They might be more successful in defending that honey in difficult situations. It also takes a microscope and a person to operate it to tell an africanized honeybee from a european honeybee. I've had hot a hive that made no honey only drew a couple of frames of comb and while I fed...

That's about the time I add a gourami. or an angelfish. I don't have a local fish store that would buy the livebearer young, and lately I don't seem to have the right water for platies or mollies so I just don't buy them anymore.

The first hive I bought turned out to be africanized bees with a cordovan queen, hotter than a firecracker. I always wear a suit. Getting honey requires rainfall. in 13 years I have had a honey harvest 5 times. I just like bees. I have no idea how many times I have been stung, I used to open...

I keep European Honeybees, these swarms are probably descendants of the Beeweaver hybrid species I bought queens of several times since 2011. Lose a swarm, seed the area with bees. When I planted wildflowers to feed my honeybees, I also attracted blue mason bees, leaf cutter bees, bumblebees...

more likely it's a queen issue. No need to separate the hives, and I am about to treat them for mites, which are the chief transmission of viruses in bees. Kill the mites it knocks out most diseases. Nosema is a contagious disease but it favors cold rainy weather and our currrent cold front has...

not enough bees, and I don't know why and it is late to requeen

Blue colony is in trouble.

home from work, I should visit my bees. Must do advertising first

just going to work. cleaning a pond with a resin or fiberglass waterfall feature

I moved all the plants from my 55 out on wednesday, dipped in bleachwater yesterday, rinsed and put in my 29 and my 40. Moved the clown pleco and the shrimp to the 40, because I had to bring home 10 Buenos Aires Tetras and a 6 or 7 year old moonlight gourami from the commercial account...

I don't think mine are that smart

I also got a 30 gallon tub for their backyard water, part of the problem in not drinking is the water gets hot. so I have a pump and an extension cord and they can have a fountain cooled water bowl.

cici is pretty good this morning. it's hot here so water that starts out hard gets harder when the water part evaporates. They have been out until noon or 1 each day then crated til at least 6 or 7 and that has not helped at all. drinking and peeing not enough, and hard water to boot, it can do...
