alright so you just answered another question of mine i was about to ask cause my mantis has been cooped up in her tunnel for a couple of days now so now im pretty sure that she i molting and the crab that is left is small and the larger one that was in there my LFS owner threw in for free with...

so Mez do you think my buffet of food is a good thing or a bad thing for my mantis cause they way i see it if he gets hungry he will eat something and if he's not he wont atleast i hope not and so far it seems to be working but i do have to say i think my mantis is sadistic my LFS gave me this...

i had read that they had to excersize their raptorial appendages hence the reason for the hermits, snails, and small crab that are in the tank with her the ghost shrimp are just an easy treat for her to eat if she doesnt want to work that hard plus she appears to love them and yes Mez i have...

thanks for the help guys i will start trying to feed frozen food once he has finished off the ghost shrimp, hermits, and small crab that are still in the tank but they may be a little while since there he love snacking onthe ghost shrimp cause they are easier to kill i guess so i have an...

thanks guys it is a peacock mantis and i feed him a variety so he never gets bored and that way if he is well fed some of the hermits and snails last a little longer and add a little extra to the tank and can do their jobs of cleaning and thanks for the info about the frozen food i may try...

I just got 3 oto for my 29gal to help with a huge algae problem and i was wondering how i can sex them so i can know what they are and if they will breed

Well i just went to go check on him and he was no longer breathing or moving i guess he was just too messed up to survive the whole ordeal

yea i know what i may have to do but i dont know if i have it in me to do it im gonna give it a couple of weeks and if he is looking better im just gonna keep treating but it he starts looking worse or doesnt improve what is the best way to do it(by best i mean most humane) and i just...

the one that got attacked is a yellow lab the attacker is a zebra OB (from what im told he is a male) they are about 2-3in he just sits there on his side he is still breathing and moving his side fins every now and then and i have just got back from the LFS where i picked up some melafix and...

one of my cichlids last night was severely attacked most of his fins are torn apart and his sides are beat up really bad but he is still alive barely and i need to know what i can do to help him get better at the moment i have separated him into a bucket with an air stone be he isnt looking good...

come on somebody here has to know of a site where they can be had

if i were you i would get a minimum of 4 more rosy tetras casue they prefer to be in groups of atleast 6 and they same goes for cory cats they are also a schooling fish and i would say that 5 would be the minimum for corys

yea he is pretty cool looking but i dont think he is a true albino i think he is one of them gold xanthistic variety like oakes mentioned cause he doesnt have a red eye he has a normal eye

i will definitely do that when i have room to get some and i know that they will try their hardest to get them for me cause i have a great LFS and i wonder what an albino neon would look like

Well i went to the LFS yesterday to pick-up my plants that i had ordered and at the same time i decided to finish stocking the 10gal that plants were going into and this consisted of 2 more neons tetras and 6 glowlight tetras and one of the glowlights i was told is an albino and i was wondering...

I am looking for an online site that sells aegla and would like to know if anybody on this fine site knows of any

thanks for the help guys i am having a little harder of a time trying to find live food for him cause he doesnt come out very often and the previous owner would feed him by sticking a square of frozen blood worms in the gravel and letting him find it i was told by a pretty reputable LFS in my...

I have heard that there are 2 species of angels and that the ones we normally see are the most popular ones to be imported and they just have alot of color variations and that the other is rarely sold in the states and i was wondering what the scientific name of the second is

how much do you feed them cause the one i have has been raised on frozen blood worm squares and the person i got it from really didnt feed at anywhere near often enough but would feed it an entire square at a time Im actually gonna try and find a LFS that sells live food for him tomorrow

I was wondering how often you should feed a peacock eel

thanks for all of the help guys and right now the tank he is in is a little over crowded so i am gonna quickly setup the 29gal tank that i have and stick him in there with the rainbow fish until i can get him a larger tank and when i do that i will get him some more eel friends to hang out with

thanks i will definitely take that advice

sweet and i was thinking of keeping it on a mainly live food diet of brine shrimp, ghost shrimp(when it is big enough), and fish fry and feeder guppies(again if it ever gets big enough for these) and some frozen food and see if i can eventually get him to eat out of my hands and the tank that...

I am buying a tank this weekend that is coming with among other things a peacock eel now i really like him cause he is pretty cool now the rest of the fish i am gonna trade to my LFS cause i am gonna go a different route with the tank but i was wondering what size tank a fully grown peacock eel...

I am buying a 30gal tank that is already set up and has fish in it already but i only want to keep one of the fish that is in it the rest i will trade to my LFS. Now for the help i want to do a dwarf cichlid tank with a couple of centerpeice fish(the cichlids) and a school of tetras. The only...

i would like to get these because they stay relatively small and dont need any dry land like FW crabs do and i would be keeping them with tetras which are pretty fast so if the Aegla did get hungry for a tetra hopefully it would be fast enough to out run it the only problem is i havnt even...

how large is your tank cause if you really like them both you might be able to get a school of each that would be pretty neat looking having both cardinals and neons
