  1. Unhappy grass

    I keep making an *** of myself by ***uming. I've been trying to grow algae in a south facing window. It's taken four months for the tiny miracle of algae. Not giving up!
  2. Unhappy grass

    Good question. I've tried jungle val, (multiple sources), 'hairgrass' (multiple sources). Financially unsound investments. However, I have luck with 'giant 'hairgrass', which doesn't look like 'hairgrass', because it doesn't have split-ends. It's the most successful plant.
  3. Heating problem

    It has something to do with how the stomach/world turns. I've given up on paying attention to the water temperature.
  4. Non smoker rant

    Abandon worshiping the written law of the lease. When your flat/apartment is next door to a neighbor who isn't physically capable of throwing out garbage and adult diapers, but who is capable of writing a montly check/cheque..... Abandon All Hope.
  5. Do you feed frozen foods to your fish?

    No. Online is hundreds of miles away and will take at least 24 to 8 hours to arrive.
  6. Non smoker rant

    Are you allergic to the smoke or the smell?
  7. Non smoker rant

    The property owner also needs to include vapors/(vapers?) in the lease agreements, as vaping also exudes odors.
  8. Non smoker rant

    You live in an apartment building. The law protects the building. Not the inhabitants.
  9. First Freshwater Tank as Adult

    Go LONG!!! The standard/high 20 gallon was my first 'real' tank. I kept noticing that the fish all hovered in the bottom 10. What a waste! It's been my newbie experience, that most fish really don't like to be anywhere near the surface.
  10. Keeping The Interest of the Mind of a Five Year Old

    Oddball craziness. I have a wagtail platy (the last one) that kept attacking the neons. I moved him to another tank. However the (last) Sunburst platy in that tank abused the Wagtail platy. So, I moved the abuser/abused Wagtail to a 10g, on his own. I have bad luck with platys, but great...
  11. Three sudden deaths female bettas

    I agree with PascalKrypt in that it has something to do with how bettas are physically raised.
  12. Three sudden deaths female bettas

    Five days ago, I added two female bettas to my 75g. There were three existing female bettas. In less than the past 24 hours, I've lost two of the existing females and one of the new ones. I'm giving up on female bettas.
  13. Keeping The Interest of the Mind of a Five Year Old

    Does it matter? One exiled serpae tetra, one otispersonatus corydora......
  14. Do you feed frozen foods to your fish?

    Nope. Frozen food is 60 miles away. That translates to 120 mile round trip, a cooler,, 2 1/2 hours, plus $10 of gasoline. Nope. Fiscally irresponsible.
  15. What’s the best cheap fish that will do good in a ph of 8.2?

    From what I've read, most fish will adjust to the pH. My tap water is 8.2. Everyone within hundreds of miles has the same pH. I wouldn't worry about it, unless you're considering a species that is extremely sensitive to pH.
  16. What are you listening to right now?

    I recognize the music, but can't name it!!!! A 'theme' song to a show???? Probably originated early 1900s, much like my favorite song, Ging Gang Goolie?!!!! In this wonderfully technological age, why do we need videos in order to entertain our ears?
  17. Keeping The Interest of the Mind of a Five Year Old

    Yup - African Dwarf frogs.... hilarious creatures! I have a 75 gallon and 20 gallon (long) in my tiny living room. However, because I keep fish, no one visits me! Still, I'm the one who sees them, so they need to be show tanks!!! Bottom line though, is the 20 gallon long. I have a 20 gallon...
  18. Keeping The Interest of the Mind of a Five Year Old

    My 20 gallon long has ADFs, betta, corys, and misc collection of oddball fish! It's the tank that makes my heart go pitter-patter and puts a smile on my face every time (esp because of the ADFs)!
  19. Movie Talk

    Moving pictures change the written word. The ability to read the written word surpasses the moving picture.
  20. Dojo loach dust bowls

    I couldn't understand, until tonight, why, every now and then my dojos would twist and jerk at the bottom of the tank and stir up a dust bowl. It confused me, because I'm fairly attentive to vacuuming. Tonight, they've all been full of flatulence which made me giggle. However, I then...
