ROFL thats what i was thinking, which is fine by me i think the SD are awesome and not as much of a hassle to care for as the HM, ive just never seen her care a male so small before!

ugh LOL im even more confused now.   i believe the beard went all the way around, its just completely clear, maybe he is just a young hm male??   ill just have to wait it out and see im guessing, i have another short finned female and the ovipositer is very obvious.

ok so i saw him flare his translucent beard pretty largely at the new female betta my bf brought home yesterday, im assuming its a male, but if it is a male then i have no clue what KIND of male? my best guess was a delta but another forum user on another site said it was definitely not a delta...

so gorgeous!! i love that type of dog, really both of them! goodness i love my dogs. haha

thats kind of where im at, you summed it up and said it nicely, i bought it thinking it was a small male.   ive looked for the ovipositer and it LOOKS like theres a little bump? but its just really hard to tell because it likes to lay in the lilly pads and sideways on the leaves, it really is an...

thanks, its nice to see support rather than encourage giving up on her poor soul! shes a beautiful dog, ill find a pic. That is my beautiful lotus girl, just beautiful.

Thanks, and nice tank in your sig btw! i likeeee.     and the reason i am willing to give her the extra chance is because she didn't attack ME, and if she meant to kill my other dog she WOULDN'T have gone for her leg, a dog that means to kill knows to go for the jugular as common as that seems...

ok SO   i have 2 bettas, a red and purple CT male, and across the divider is a mystery gender white/blue/greenish betta.   i have come to 2 conclusions:   1. it is a small, shorter finned delta tail male with no beard under his gills, flaring or not flaring. with shorter vent fins and female...

ahhhhhhh I LOVE BLUE HEELERS.   we actually had a slight INCIDENT. in the middle of february.   our pitbull mix(shes not a true "pit" due to being more than 85% white.) attacked our black lmini lab while iw as carrying her inside to prevent her from jumping the fence.    long story later, Lotus...

yes!!!!it is like somersaults lolol. this is perfect.

thats what i thought, hes beautiful enough alone anyways!

i tried to check underneath but hes swimming too fast, but ive always thought him to be a male.    does anyone have a thought on putting a flowerhorn with an arowana? im sure people have done it, but we couldnt even keep our red/white devil cichlid with the arowana for longer than 6 months...

ahh! yes, perfect way to describe the relationship of owner/flowerhorn.   i have mine in a tank beside my tv/my usually sitting spot with my lap top.. i LOVE the way he swims.. all over the tank with no general pattern..    and he does get himself worked up over his reflection as well lol! ill...

i lol every time i see that^^ maybe im 7 years old at heart.     i was pretty sure on the male, like 99.5% but ive seen some people's "females" and im like. ehhhhh.

i was kinda worried about mine's belly being too full but hes pooping and what not, super active and eating normally so i think hes just healthy, im just not use to seeing a chunky little fish.  im thinking hes between 3-4 inches? i got him for christmas and he was about 2 inches, so thats about...

go figure when i post about this guy, he starts acting like a terrible flowerhorn toddler and started "pushing" on the rocks that are FIRMLY in about 2 inches of sand lol...   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVgyg903esc   here he is in action chomping some frozen beefheart cube..    and correct...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVgyg903esc   enjoy :]

LOL. typical FH behavior i see.    this is the tank now.. LOL more plants. ill just wait until he hits the period he starts pulling them up and move them all..i just felt kinda bad for the guy he never would stay in his cave in his other tank and this one he just swims around the pleco while it...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43bB3fMPErU   they started spawning with my other CAs, killed a couple, i removed their spawning rock and fry to hatch in a 10g, then moved these mean ole things to my 30g to be ALONE. so this is them eating. lol.   the females are black and the males are the...

the new FH residence :]  and i have not really had any issues of him with the plants, i think he really likes them. ive added a few lily bulbs that were growing to the top in another tank. and here is the back side, its actualy grown quit a bit since this picture, this was the day or set up

thats crazy because we have 3 other shelter dogs from the same shelter, my first was a husky mix whos all white with 2 blue eyes, then we have an all white pit, and a pit xminilab thats black. so far potty training as been good and her walking has improved SO much with a heavy feeding schedule...

meet my (mostly) baby boxer Mable, 7 weeks old, under developed joints and bones, 7.25 lbs, female. my other 3 dogs welcomed her with nose pushes, licks, kisses and snuggles, this has been a great week. she completes the family and is SUPER sweet.

lol i try to tell him that, but hey what can you do......... i now have just a couple bronze corydoras and the channel cat in with the FH and he doesnt bother them, yet i can't even put snails in the tank with him LOL..... but we discovered last night we have THREEE pods of mystery snail eggs...

i was grabbing a couple plants from our 75g and on the lid i noticed something and looked and it was a longish thick pile of creamy beige colored hard eggs, then i lifted up the other lid and i saw another batch!!!!!! and then i pulled out a piece off slate and felt something grind at the top...

i HONESTLY would love to sell all of my tank(7) which i JUST re did my 35 hex and my 75g long and moved my c/a cichlids to the 75 and my africans(mostly small ones) into the hex. such a great idea, now i feel like everyone is with who they are suppse to be with(relatively) atleast they are from...

loveee it, hes great :]

this is him now!! ive actually watched him kill off 3 feeder fish i had left over... and we are selling/rehoming the arowana soon, we just took him off the lfs hands because he outgrew the 30g they bought him as a baby.. lol... and as soon as my FH hits around 4-5 inches ill be upgrading to...

here is an updated picture and its only been 2 weeks!!

love it!!!! hes already starting to get bigger/prettier, i have him in a 30gallon thats just got a couple cory cats, 120gph of internal and HOB filtration and he is getting dried high protein snacks and hikari cichlid pellets.

geeezzzzz, yes we can fit a huge tank into our house, and we have a contractor on hand to support the house and the weight, we have sliding glass doors and a ramp so theres no problem there... and as i already stated, the arowana will be rehomed in a few months(you may not like my 75g for it...

he's a flowerhorn... so i honestly don't know. they haven't really tracked down the true origins they came from.. competely man made fish :]

oh WOW that's awesome, i've seen glass eyes put in dogs at thevet i worked at, and LOL metal testicles.. hahah... but not a fish, i've seen surgeries on arowanas out of water and its pretty awesome to see, im so ready to get rid of our arowana man. i know that sounds horrible, but i would...

:] thanks, she really is a beaut. we actually hae 3 "mutts" that we rescued all from the same shelter about 30 minutes away... best dogs i've ever had.

hes pretty vicious even this small but im already in love, working on getting a 125g for him pretty soon :]

lol CUtE! i think the other cichlids noticed his defect/ kinda picked on him a bit.. i was also thinking that if his eye didnt fully develope, did any of the other organs not get a chance to..... just a thought that crossed my mind.

the lady at the LFS told me if you are having clear worms that a table spoon or something of aquarium salt will make the salinity raise enough to kill the worms, but not harm the fish.

i cant wait, i think we might invest in a 125g but im not sure if we want to lose the space in the house... we have an l shaped wall we were thinking of putting a larger cube tank in, knocking out the wall so you can see all 4 sides :]

i know i had never though of it and i guess i had a piece fall in from a really old filter cartridge or something! it was weird, he got bloated but bloat meds didnt work, diarheatics didnt work and he had no sores, just heavy gilling

i completely agree, i slowly added fish and watched them carefully, i ahve a 75g long full of smaller fish that need to grow a bit more because the larger ones were picking on them(my boyfriend "donated" them to my tank because he wanted an arowana ~~~soooo~~~~~~~~~~~ bad) so he just has that...

I have 2 3-4 inch JDS in an african cichlid tank with a cobalt, a yellow lab, a spotted catfish, albino channel cat, and two 3 inch pink convicts, NOBODY messes with anyone else, they are all super active, very bright, and each have their own little "house" cave. its only a 35-40g hexagon tank...
