my hidden talent is…despite being in honors marh classes and somehow managing to keep an A…being absolutely hopeless at math, especially geometry, notoriously an easier subject. However, I love solving complicated algebraic equation…doesnt mean im any good ar them

Just learned how to backflip for a school project and I can now recite 75 digits of pi (it was a long road trip ok)

Love the Dat!! Rays are absolutely gorgeous!!

looks like its skin infection stemmed from bad water quality - good water quality is key here.

Not the same as bottled bacteria but I manually added ammonia to my tank to kickstart the cycle, from then on all my new tanks have stemmed from that cycle

In my experience the ‘starter kits’ are always more expensive for cheaply made products

I love winter, wish it was like this all year round. Sad to see it go

Egypt is part of Asia and Africa

Well to answer your question, bettas are called Siamese fighting fish for a reason. I have heard it’s possible, but I would STRONGLY recommend to not do it. An interesting fish species is something like a hatchetfish, though they need a school. Don’t quote me on this because I am a little rusty...

“Why” - Socrates

A female bettas are ok but males are not. I had a group of female bettas in my community tank with tetras and Cory’s. Perhaps a small gourami instead of a beta?

As for visitted…I’ve visited all over the US and Mexico, in 10 days im off to Costa Rica, Panama, and either Nicaragua or El Salvador.

The world is a scary place my friend, scary.

Exactly my reaction :)

African fish are well worth it!

Just an idea, but watch what you say. Your tone is harsh and political. From my research COVID is most definitely not patented. COVID was filed for a patent in England…in 2015…for a coronavirus that causes avian bronchitis, not SARS-COVID-19. Since the public can see all patents, can you show me...

I also had a cheat, African Tiger Scat are freshwater, brackish, and salt, and they have been known to reach all the way into the indopacific islands. So they made up lots of islands in my list!

Beautiful tank! In my opinion you shouldn’t worry about it. Fish can go a lot longer than people think without food. if your fish is thin my recommendation is to not power feed them, but just up the ante or up the feeding dosage to gradually bring them back to health

Just glazing the top with a gravel vac ought to do it. When I didn’t wash my Home Depot pool filter sand there was about an inch of silt (which my bichirs loved because they would almost bury themselves in it), and overtime I gravel vac’ed it out. Of course then I switched substrates after due...

Sounds like you know your shiznit! Very interesting tank setup. What plants are you planning on getting?

Yes my females were plain and my males were absolutely gorgeous with flowing fins with black tips and beautiful colors

Temp: prefer cooler water but can be in basically any water. Numbers: I would keep them in groups. Tank size: my bare minimum would be 30g, 20 is way pushing it Fish size: Mine stayed around 5”, but I’ve heard them getting around 7” in captivity.

Confusing title, but out of curiosity how many countries have the fish you’ve kept totaled? For example, if I kept beta macrostoma the countries that the fish would count for would be Brunei and Malaysia. So how many countries? Introduced does not count. I used fishbase.se and other independent...

You should ultimately be the one to choose, don’t let other people choose for you. Why have a tank if you can’t choose the fish in it?

I have: Semi-planted 29g w random leftover community fish such from years ago, kuhlis, Cory’s, flagfish, Amani shrimp. 40% wc every 2 weeks Semi-planted 90g heavy-filtered w 3 bichirs and a group of African Tiger Scat. 40-50% every 2 weeks Planted 55g w 6 Gymnogeophagus Terrapurpura plus fry...

Yeah water lettuce from my experience will always have some imperfections, can have some little pigment differences or some dead leaf tips.

I have a love hate relationship with Congos, mostly due to the ratio of males to females. They’re super pretty. Here’s a pic of one of mine. Enjoy the Congos!

I keep about 7 different species of plants per outdoor patio tank/mini pond, and water lettuce is in two of them. It’s a great plant, tho water hyacinth will always be my favorite. Water Lettuce is more attractive to look at than water hyacinth, and it’s a good contrast to dark green plants...

Beautiful fish!

The chargers fired there hc and gm! PRAISE OH PRAISE

We need all parameters of your tank, including PH.

Yes, I know what ph is, stands for potential hydrogen, base vs acid, yada yada, and things in everyday life have phs of 1. What I mean is that it is not possible for a household Ph to be 3.7, especially when the tap is not anywhere close to that. Unless he cuts his water w lemon juice, I would...

3.7 is basically not possible!

Ah ok, shouldn’t be a problem finding one that isn’t bred in ro water

+1 had this happen mysteriously to a group of African Tiger Scat…didn’t affect any other fish in the tank, just that species. Mine were killed within 24hrs. Could’ve been due to aggression, but i doubt it
