I would have no qualms setting up a betta sorority in a 30 gallon tank. Females tend to get along alright once they adjust to one another. They'll do nicely in that particular tank.

Disastrous results from ignorant actions. This is the very real life version of the "alligator in the sewer" urban legend. Well-meaning owners who release their pets into the lakes/ponds/rivers rather than euthanizing could have stories like this coming back to bite them in the ***. The local...

As an aside, do you notice anything odd about its swimming or behaviour? Does it bump into things and turn in circles or something? I don't recall ever having a one-eyed fish before. Maybe you can call him Jack, as in "One-eyed jack".

Another vote for a male betta. Love these fish. If the stores weren't closed, I'd run out and buy one right now. Maybe I'll camp out my LFS til morning.

Nice looking rock. I was thinking about collecting some interesting rocks for my tank this summer. My current rocks are kind of unremarkable.

I think I know what you mean. It's probably the way you re-position everything into the gravel. When I first read the title of your thread, I thought you were talking about something psychological. I've noticed a phenomenon in the hobby that I call "shrinking tank syndrome". It's very weird. I...

Hey, nice work, dude.

You got some real beauts there, chesterthehero.

Yes, I just keep black worms in a yogurt container in the fridge. I change 100% of the water everyday just before I feed to the fish. I use a worm feeder so the fish have a chance to feed before the worms all sink into the gravel. I don't use sand or gravel at the bottom of the yogurt container...

Male, but likes to cross-dress on weekends.

What do you feed a Siamese Algae Eater? I've never had one of these fishes before, although I've searched high and low for one. I finally bought one recently but he was listed as a Flying Fox by the LFS. But I'm pretty sure he's a SAE based on pics I've seen. I was thinking about buying Hikari...

Beautiful fish, and awesome pics. The driftwood looks like some sort of animal, especially in that last pic.

I wonder how their fins can reach the pedals?

Gosh, he shore is a purdy fish. Good luck with the breeding and keep us up to date on your progress. There might be some interesting colouration in the offspring. Being a hockey fan, those are the team colours of the St. Louis Blues. So, I'd call him Blue, or St. Lou.

Did you cycle?

Specifically, my favourite is my 10 gallon Metaframe tank. Anyone remember those? It was my very first tank. It's kind of unique, and it stands out like a sore thumb when juxtapositioned along the all-glass tanks. It's got a slight leak but I'll get around to fixing it. I haven't used it in...

I would love to see pics of this 110g monster once you get it set up.

Unless they are stunted or freakishly gigantic, most adult angelfish varieties grow to similar size.

I never tap on the glass. I just don't think it's necessary.
