if you set up your store in nc i'll be sure to visit...and help out whenever i can (everyday : )

timg

Can you imagine shifting all this across the pond?...lol

Kevin

no
...but i'll help with that too

timg

hehe.... it would be one heck of an exodus! Emigrating to another part of the world though.... such a temptation!

timg

I was talking to FLBC about this very subject a couple of days ago, and saying that I would need a container complete with power to be able to move everything safely....

timg

I would have to design special containers to hold the fish..... could be fun!

timg

Mind you, they wouldn't let me stay, I'm not mexican!

Kevin

lol...border patrol only allows illegal mexicans into the us

timg

yeah, I know.... put's me out in the cold, but let's some no-hoper stay and consume valuable welfare.... lol

Kevin

i'm gonna join border patrol...take my shotgun, teach the mexicans a lesson...and let you in

what you need to do is change your name to Pedro Menendez, say you're from mexico city and move the operation over (come up through texas like the terrorists and mexicans do).. and try not to speak american. you'll need to learn spanish so you can go about here without speaking the language of the country.. you could probably get more than enough money from the US gov't then to pay for the shop lease and operation expenses. :P

great operation you have there.. getting 150% out of your space and resources! ingenious!

You have me dreaming about a nitrate filter again. I looked at the link you sent me a long time ago about the coil version, but I think yours with the garden growing looks more my style also. I think it is really quite interesting, cause just last night I was thinking about how easily my platy fry could go into the nitrate filter. You could build a tank of sorts on top, that holds the Preg. females just before birth, then the fry would go down through the outlet to the filter......all by themselves, no muss, no fuss! Then when they are big enough for a tank with other fish they could go in and make room for more.

Had some more arrivals, and some bad news too. We lost Joe today, our yellow sailfin molly, completely unexpected and of unknown causes. I suspect it was his time.

The good news is the new arrivals, yep, more! This time it's Albino Guppies. They arrived this morning, just five of them so far, but it looks like mum is still busy.

Of the three batches of eggs from the angels, one turned out to be in-fertile, so either I was too quick taking them away or the male didn't do his job. The other two batches are coming on nicely and one of the pics below shows the furthest on in their container.

I am sorry about your molly, Tim. Sounds like he was a beauty too.

timg

He was a real beauty, but I have about 50 more of his coming on, so it won't be long before we have another just like him!

Well I guess with your success rate with breeding, no fish is ever unique.
