Okay, I've decided to get a few more kuhlis and a redtail shark, and trade in the swords again. I want to go for an asian theme in my tank. I'm not sure that I have the right plants for this region though, I know the crypts are asian, but I'm not sure about the others. I'd like some...

Sounds like a swimbladder problem, if anything else. I've heard that with goldfish, feeding unshelled peas can help this problem. If he'll take them, try feeding those to him, and let us know if it makes him a little better. Good luck with your large friend. ~Angela BTW, do you know that a...

Update I did a water change last night and added both ferts this morning. I did something stupid last night though, I left one of the java ferns out of water too long. It was attached to a rock that I was planning to move. Before I knew the timehad passed, it has dryed and shriveled a little...

WOW! I hope mine get big and bushy like that.

Stacie, love your sig...Office Space, hee hee :p:

A few hours ago I saw a news report saying the the footage of some of the cameras of the shuttle shows something falling off jus after the feul cells fall away. I saw when they showed it, and something did appear to have come off some part of the shuttle. They have another shuttle already up...

I have to agree with Kas as well, I observe behaviors of my fish being happy, playing chase, exploring the plants, etc. I spoke to someone before at a reptile & invertebrate shop that said reptiles, fish & inverts didn't feel pain or emotions at all. He also thought of them as conversation...

Okay, so I've been dosing my tank with Flourish for about a week or so, and today I picked up Flourish Excel as a CO2 supplement. The other I need to get is Potassium. The progress of my plant growth is as follows. Anubias= Leaves are looking better, older ones not dying off as quickly, so...

Not sure about using other ingredients with the DIY method. I'm going to use Flourish Excel from Seachem (liquid fert), it's a natural source of carbon that's easier for plants to absorb. You can use that alone or with the DIY setup. Good Luck!

Yeah, but the one thing that still erks me is what you could see on a 20 dollar bill if you folded it right...Both the Pentogan and the towers. The places where the the smoke was drawn coming out of each tower was so accurate, I honestly don't know how to explain that without a conspiracy...

I was just recently having a conversation about this subject with my Mom today. I suppose I will share my knowledge on this so far. I know recently that a large percentage of the mercury preservatives that were used in the vaccines have been reduced some, but to what extent I'm unsure. I...

Hey, this is directed at anyone familiar with keeping reptiles, specifically geckos. I had to take out my leopard gecko tonight and help get some unshed skin off her toes, when I noticed she has something in her eye that she can't lick off. From what I've read, it could be a bacterial infection...

I remember having met rotties when I was younger, and they were well cared for. They were a family friend's dogs. Sometimes they'd be waring t-shirts and such. Yeah, they were big brutes but they had good temperments, and never hurt anyone. Of course as most dogs will do, they barked quite a...

**** Right!! And any dog breed does not just 'turn' on its owner. There is usually a reason when an animal attacks someone. I own a six month old black lab, and she's a real biter so far, I'm just hoping I can get control of her, because I have a parrot that I love like a child, and I...

As you know, I have a rising desire to get a redtail shark for my 55g tank. I needed to know a few more things before I bring him/her home. 1. Since they need a cave to hide in, what size should I look for in a decoration/ cave? 2. I also have a few swordtail fry left over from the fish...

I'll say! For a mosquito anyway... I'd know, I live in Florida.

I'm guilty of laughing... :hi: It would be really amusing if Rumsfeld had this kind of sense of humor. Unfortunately, I'm not sure of the guy, but hey, I guess the only thing we can do now is laugh. Not much else we can do for our own country's state, let alone others'. Despite all the...

Thanx everybody. :) I saw the pinholes in the crypts I have, but only on a few plants. BTW, I would say my tank is moderately planted as there is still blank space in a few areas. I am dosing with Flourish right now and will be getting Excel and Pottasium to also aid in plant growth.

Well, people who are deep into the hobby, and who aren't out to make money, generally learned overtime the tank size and maintenance, etc. has a big affect on the health of their own stock. This stuff has taken people many years to learn from experiences, and thus the hobby developes further for...

I have recently had a large amount of ramshorns populate my planted tank. I've also noticed a few pond snails, and just last night I saw a malaysian trumpet snail gliding on the gravel. Not any serious damage yet, just a few tiny holes, and those are weeks old. The snalis have all helped out...
