Fish Sanctuary

that is one big pacu, wait this is only temporary whats the permanent solution going to be?
Large tanks, most likely. Sounds like we are possibly getting a 200-Gallon donation, and yet another tank 150+ Gallons. Nothing will be changed until the tanks are ready. ;)
WOW! thats a BIG fish!
He is indeed. Guess I didn't expect him to be as big as I originally had thought. :)
an olympic swimming pool....
lol, I wish!
 
Awesome pool Brady!! I see that you have some lighting for it. Just wondering if you might be interested in some more. They are single bulb(6500k) lights that you see behind the counter of convenience stores on the cig. racks. 4 small holes drilled into the back to fit self tapping eye bolts is what I used to mount one horizontal. If interested, let me know and I could send you a pic if you want. Keep up the great work work man, you are the savior of wet pets!:thumbsup:

Thanks C.J., I appreciate it. ;)
I may have to take you up on your offer for when/if we get that 200-Gallon, but right now I'm booked for the next week or so, lol. New rescues coming soon as well. I'll keep in touch!
And thanks, and but sometimes, on those rare occasions, I have to rescue dry-pets. :D
Such as today!

The newest rescue, as of today. This one caught me off guard, lol.
I got a txt while in class with a pic of a Kitten, and it said "Meet Jack!".
This was of course from my mother, and as it turns out, in a way, I rescued him. A woman that I had rescued some fish from (There were no specific details) had a friend of hers trying to get rid of some of her Kittens that the mother Cat had recently given birth to. (9 weeks old) The Cat was a rescue for them, and they were not aware of it being pregnant at the time.
A liter of babies later, and they noticed that one of them was... different.
He was missing his toes on one of his back legs, which was most likely just a... "forming" issue, while inside the mother. (One of the cords must have been wrapped around the foot to prevent any toes from growing on that certain foot)
So, they adopted them out, and all that was left was this little guy; Jack. He had been in the paper for three-weeks, and no one had wanted him because he was missing his toes, so the family was going to have to bring him to a rescue, which would have put him down. They could not keep him due to a pet keeping rule at the apartment. (No more than one Cat)
When they found out that we rescue fish, they thought they'd try to get a-hold of my mother, and sure enough, she headed out to pick-up the little guy, and now we have another Cat in the family. :)
Long story, lol.
This is not something I normally do, but this was a life or death situation, and obviously we were this little guys on hope.
And last, but not least; pics! (He is a lot more active than he looks in the pics, lol, just taking a break ;))

Ok, I have a serious question. Would you accept donations of equipment/decor/lighting etc? If you pm me with a list of what you need and a list of what you use-including specifics on products and chems, I may have stuff that I could ship to you as a donation for the work you are doing. Pm me!!

lol, I understand the problem that you would have with that. :D

Jack is still one of the most active Kittens I've seen, even without a foot/toes! :grinyes:
Sounds like I've got another rescue next week as well; Saltwater too! Something different for once I suppose.
