Neoprodigy and Vicious_fish came over today to help me transfer my fish. It went seamlessly with very little stress. They are all settled and chilling in their new home.

AWESOME! I'm so glad it went well. I know you were stressing about moving your babies. No fishy freakouts?
What did Mr. Grumpypants think of all this?

he was in a frisky mood today so was too busy attacking the magfloat to pay too much attention. Neo is a pro, not a single fish thrashed or was at all stress. That is why I asked him to do it, I knew wiht my nerves I would not do as seamless of a job, lol

Da beasties are getting some size to them, they'll definitely appreciate the larger tank. What do you feed the fat buggers?

They eat massivore (by Hikari), market shrimp, tilapia fillets, and sometimes livebearers for a treat.

Dang, I need to rent him when I'M trying to catch something. Those neons and endlers are SNEAKY.

I wonder if fish can pick up on a persons mood like cats and dogs can?

That was the quickest fish swap ever! Li is the man at catching large fish. I'm glad all the fish settled in real quickly. That trop gar had me worried at first but he ended up being the most calm during the whole move.
