A 20 long; i submitted it a month or so ago for votes and everyone said it sucked :(

This aquarium is 72 inches long 24 inches high and 24 inches wide. It has 8 orange/brown cameta wild caught discus; couple of wc blue rams and a hefty school of 20-30 cardinals tetra. Also if you look with a flashlight under the drift wood you might spot the L397. They have been in this aquarium...

I did 3 hours of water changes ! See: half full !!!! -- and now it is all full: ta-da !

Blue Eye monster: -- Water change day:

The more complicated we make things the simpler they become.

I guess that is the question asked; but i think the better question is CAN they interbreed; while i don't know the factual answer my guess is yes given they are both in a small genus. The only place i could find selling them is $8-$12 range when they have them in stock (that's per fish)...

Naw - at 22 you should be lugging those 40 gallon pails of water without any issues ;) Being an old timer i put my 40 gallon on wheels so i can just roll it !

The western actor i like the most was Robert Duvall - he's 93 and still acting. The two movies i'm thiking of were open range and broken trails. I think broken trail was the better of the two. Oh well. Been a while since a good space movie; gravity was cocky in a way but pretty good - would have...

Yea i really liked the shootist; though at the time when i first watched it I wondered if it was a reflection on his real life; at least with regards to health. The remake of True Grit is actually pretty good though there are elements of both movies i liked - the little girl did a much better...

I'm going to sleep soon.

Not funny; they do that all the time with red tail catfish; which is a fish commonly sold to folks who buy 10 gallon aquariums ;) Which by the way can become too big for your bathtub at over 5 feet.

Yea i learned the hard way about 8 years ago; killed my favorite pair of rams doing a water change during the winter and after that date i always pre-heat the new water to the tank before putting it in. Of course despite doing that then 2 years later we had a 20 hour power outage that killed my...

Small update - i picked up these three spiders but don't really like any of them: I added these fishes: (to be precise - i swapped the sponge fitler with a mature one and then added those rascals - 4 'common' oto; 8 Brevibora dorsiocellata and 6 Paracheirodon axelrodi; the p. axelrodi were...

Yea; a lot of folks bet on the french till the germans walked around the wall ;)

So - off topic but i think we should have a contest - who can eat the most snails; your puffers or my loaches ;) I'll pit my army against yours any day of the week. Gotta warn you my army is very large but to an extreme lack discipline or predictability ;)

Well.... you obviously don't have kids ;)

I can sex MY angels from photo because i know the male/female trait for MY angels. However for a random angel i'm only right about %75 of the time - there are certain traits like thickness in lower region; hump in the head overall size but a lot of it is genetic so with the right gene a female...

Yea but don't they have like 1000 ending for gender based of a gazillion different rules. Hum what is 1000 * gazillion? Well a lot - i could never keep them all straight and vaguely to make things worse i think there are a few exceptions thrown in to keep you on your toe. ae us am arum is...

Btw when someone gets to the apistogramma group every book written about them will be broken :(

Good god who in their foolish way changed the names of all these fishes. I remember just other day i wanted to read about a dwarf cichild and some idiot changed the name of the fish. Can we please stop changing the name of fishes? Having said that i've kept under this new crazy scheme that will...

It is really a martian in disguise.

That is a nice scape; as for larger being better - i find that most people put too many fishes and not enough plants in their aquariums ;) The only problem with plants is they grow and grow and never stop growing and soon you need an even larger aquariums just for the plants :(

i guess 'cept when you don't see them for 4 months and think they died.

I put my fingers in there what more could they want ;)

Been a long day; no clue what i did but it has been a long day - right now i'm trying to relax but my angels are trying to breed and the 'baby' chocolate just finds the eggs too yummy. As angelfishes go this pair is a really nice pair and i'm thinking if i could catch them i could move them to...

Well you need a Elon Musk to pay $1,000,000 per voter ;)

There are way to filter out nitrate; i don't know what they are but given that you live in florida; the best suggestion i can come up with is move to colorado where the water is mountain pure ;) Also the air is nicer and the humidity is a lot lower. Colorado is the place to be not florida...

The background is black - it was mostly to put there to block stray light that was causing algae. The cory do come out when i feed them but not the green neon. I did just order 6 more to see if more make them more friendly ;) Of course it begins to beg the question just how many fishes can i...

I've posted this picture before so it is nothing new but despite obvious appearance this aquarium has close to 30 fishes in it: It is rather dim (maybe i need more light so they know it is day?); and if you shine a light under the leaf you might see this: They tell you that you should...
