  1. What's the next fish you're getting?

    Apparently some more CPDs. Saw two of these little guys last night, now if the shrimp will get busy.
  2. Funny Things Your Fish Do

    Don't have any fish anecdotes but our youngest malamute and I have this thing that she won't do with my wife. When she gets up to snuggle with me on the couch, if I start acting like I'm going to nibble on her muzzle she fully bares he canines and starts growling softly but doesn't pull away...
  3. Where are all the tanks?

    No kidding. Went in to Home Depot to get some boards for a small project, they wanted $35 for 1/2" OSB sheet, paid $14 for the same thing last May.
  4. Where are all the tanks?

    I've been waiting on a Fluval Flex since December. If I wasn't set on it our LFS has a reasonable stock of "normal" tanks. Talking with the owner, spending is up a lot, just know that just about every time I go in for something he doesn't have it and when he puts it on his weekly order its a...
  5. Refused the sale of fish?

    I don't know the outcomes, but I have overheard more then once employees at our LFS starting to go into the explanation of why you can't buy a tank and drop fish right in them.
  6. Crayfish - Crawfish Photos Only

    Have a pair of tigers that have shacked up for the past week or two. Bishop decided to go out for a walk today.
  7. New tank algae can someone help

    I've left it so far in both situations. The first tank is now cycled and the one that currently has that is in the process of cycling, just has plants and some snails that snuck in there.
  8. New tank algae can someone help

    We dropped some shrimp pellets in our new 7.5g to aid in cycling it and they have this "shell" around them thats hazy like your pics. Same thing happened to the shrimp we put in our other tanks to start the cycle.
  9. Kudos to Aqua Huna

    Like shopping at my LFS, but for the price of they want for pea puffers I am shopping elsewhere, and Aqua Huna is who I was planning on buying from. Good to hear they took care of the problem.
  10. What are you doing to your tank today?

    On our 55gallon its keeping an eye on our crayfish. They have moved in together so maybe babes will be not far behind?? Added some pygmy corys to the wife's small tank last night and still waiting for my small tank to finish cycling. And some sad news, the display at the LFS where the betta was...
  11. Changing substrate in an established aquarium

    I did half at a time last month. Had a small spike in ammonia after doing the first half of the substrate and waited three weeks before doing the second half. My notoriously high nitrates have since come down, tank looks better and the water parameters are better, win win.
  12. What's the next fish you're getting?

    Getting some golden back shrimp for my 5 gallon once it is cycled, and the wifey is looking at some pygmy corys and a betta for hers. After that, once we even get the tank, will be some pea puffers and otos. Also have a 7.5 gallon we are setting up for snails that we are talking about adding...
  13. So this is the rabbit hole

    The female tore up the tank at the LFS before she came home. The owner would reset the tank at the end of the day so that it could clear up by the morning but she had already redecorated again overnight so he gave up. Now here, be it that she is no longer in a tank with cichlids she doesn't...
  14. So this is the rabbit hole

    Since the beginning of December I have lost 2 neon tetras, 1 x-ray tetra, and 1 harlequin rasbora. Now, was that to the crayfish or not I don't know. At least two of them were on my filter intake, but if they died naturally or were snipped its too hard to say. Now I also keep dropping in ghost...
  15. So this is the rabbit hole

    Not as much as the blue crayfish are supposed to be. First night we had the female in there it was a little touchy, but since then they pretty much leave each other alone and when the do bump into each other it isn't a huge issue.
  16. So this is the rabbit hole

    Hey all. Have a 55 gallon tank at my office that has housed some shubunkins for a few years. Decided to change things up last year and moved them and reset the tank for a pair of tiger crayfish and a bunch of schooling fish. The crayfish are the most reclusive I've seen but they are fun to...
