Thank you for the feedback the sarcasim was cute.

as i search for more informtion on breeding guppies i find that for the novice it can be disenchanting. with all the sientific jargon and technical termonology it can be quite overwhelming. many of the articles ive read were very impressive using terms i had to use a dictionary to define. so as...

Yes I work at a chain petstore and i have worked at two prior to this. Yes you will see dead fish at a pet store. Not only do we scoop the the dead in the A.M at our store we do hourly animal wellness checks to make sure customers dont have to see dead animals and to make sure the dead dont...

plecos do have somewhat of a amor plated skin but being that the will spend most of thier time bottom dwelling i would not take the chance especially on one smaller than the crayfish. i have had an armor plated raphel catfish that did ok with a smaller crayfish but i moved the cray fish for his...
