I love you, man!

I've had several plakat varieties. My most expensive came from one of those chain stores we all love to hate and he was only $25. My other two were around $10-12. True wild types on the other hand I have never seen in person and are more than I'd be willing to spend. But I can dream.

I'm going to say a halfmoon. I am more of a plakat/wild type fan, so I cannot swear to it. Either way, he is gorgeous!

I love my Nicrew lights! They are a bit above your $15 limit, but are quality lights and very reasonably priced and I would highly recommend them if you could spring for the extra $10+/-. I also have a full spectrum light by Aquaneat on my 5 gallon. I paid $12.99 for it on Amazon. It's no frills...

Bye.

Are you familiar with paintball? Basically, they are spring, electric or high pressure air/other gas powered "guns" that shoot 6mm plastic BBs. As long as you wear proper eye protection, they are rather harmless. You use them to shoot each other. It's like a real life first person shooter video...

Wife and I went to Rev XI at Ballahack this weekend. Got all sorts of shot up (especially me and usually because my wife shot someone and I got blamed! 🤣). Met a lot of really awesome folks including SwampSniper, CJ and Alexis (c7viper), Skittles, Kermit Tactical Airsoft, The Rad Rosvadian and...

Our tree at home. Unlit and lit. And since I'm at work...

Green carpet algae as in hair/thread algae? You can have all of mine free of charge! You pick it, it's yours! 🤣

Yes. He is a crowntail betta. I was hesitant for the longest time. I was always a SA cichlid fan. Then I saw some videos of how intelligent and social bettas can be. I dove in and I was hooked. We are normally big fans of wild types and short finned varieties, but this guy was just too darn...

We hit up our LFS's "Black Friday" sale last night looking for deals on Neocaridina. We left with this handsome little guy instead. We aren't normally into long finned varieties, but he spoke to us. Last two pics were taken after settling in overnight. Can't wait to see how he colors up in a...

Oh boy, Mrs. Flushable, the kids and I all enjoyed a big belly laugh today! Yesterday I bought a new Taurus G2C replace my bulky and heavy everyday carry. So we all went out to my mother's property this afternoon to get some trigger time. I brought my new Taurus, the Mrs. brought her Walther...

I hate trimming the DHG. 😄 It's so fragile and makes a mess. Next time I will try a different carpeting plant.

This was taken a week after the TOTM photo. And after a quick hack job trimming.

Upper right corner. 😉 Better pic of him.

You should see it now. Those plants exploded since I took that photo and tweaked the CO2. I've started filling a 5 gallon with the trimmings. I'm going for a 3rd win! 😄 I blame y'all for our aquarium addiction. I've learned so many things here. I had never heard of using CO2 or root tabs nor...

I'm curious how you'd divide the 125. I'm assuming it is a 72x18x21 tank. They would each have their own filtration, correct?

Thanks everyone!

I'm a bit late to the party, but dwarf hairgrass (Eleocharis parvula) is perfect for nano tanks and doesn't require additional CO2. I love Rotala rotundifolia in my nano tanks and they do fine in low tech tanks. It's such a beautiful plant. Lots of small epiphytes such as Anubias nana would work...

Apartment living. Two bettas max. Otherwise we'd go all out.

I couldn't just throw away a bunch of perfectly good trimmings, could I? So... I took a spare 5 gallon and threw this together. Obviously just the beginning.

I didn't figure. 😉
