Welcome back guys!!

TheEssigs

Hey thanks guys! Glad to be back!

We have been a little busy. We have downsized our tanks from 11 to 6. We now have just the 125g, 65g, 46g, 2g, 10g and the 5g. If anyone lives in NJ we have the 26g and the 40g needing new homes...

OHHHHH, and we have a new addition... Rudy!

He is a 15week old border collie lab mix. He is totally awsome! Ill post a pic as soon as he sits still long enough to get one!

TheEssigs

Here he is!!

Shawnie

OMG hes adorable!!!

look at that face!

welcome rudy!!

TheEssigs

Thanks Shawnie! He is such a good boy. We love him to death... We only had him 2 days and he never went bathroom in the house again. He has the best temperment, especially around the little ones... he was a great find, and he completes our little family!!

MissMTS, we only had one pitfall since I last left, and it was my fault. I added 4 Twinbar platys to my 65g without QTing first and they apparently had ick. It wiped out the majority of my tank... I lost 18 fish. It was really bad, I never seen ick come on so fast and be so pronounced. It was crazy. But we made it through, and we are slowly rebuilding...

Wish we could come over & take those tanks for you.

Sorry to hear of your lost fish and that's one cute puppy!

TheEssigs

Me to Dave!

Thanks! It was bit of a shock how many fish we lost. I have had ick before but never saw it soooo bad, and never lost more than 1 fish at a time... must have been a doosy of a strain!

Keep yourself in a tank full of water at 83 degrees farenheit.... oh wait.. that's for fish.

TheEssigs
