    Got Geckos?

    Guess you're up you're latin. :o Speaking of iguanas, I have heard so many stories of them being such wonderful characters. They really become quite a part of the family, but then again doesn't any animal just about? I actually had one for a short time when I was very young. My dad had...

    Sick Goldfish in Outoor Pond

    Thanx. You saying that does make me feel alot better. I think I'm still going to try to do something, but it might take a while before I can. My Father has alot of problems at work sometimes, so I guess I understand his snapping at me. I don't have a job yet, so my mind gets taken with the...

    Is There A Best Way To Keep Water Parasite Free?

    Oh, well thanx for that:) I've been keeping a close eye on my danios because of the one that died recently. They all appear normal, along with the rest of the crowd. Anything I see that I haven't seen them doing before,and I'll sit there and watch for a few minutes just to make sure it isn't...

    Is There A Best Way To Keep Water Parasite Free?

    I'm curious to know if there was a way to keep a tank parasite free. Would some kind of additive, or chemical work? I ask this because it seems things can pop up out of nowhere and really get out of hand. I wanted to know for sure if there is a way to have some kind of prevention of this...

    Not Sure If I Should Keep Swordtail Fry

    I think I posted a while back about having some baby swords left over from the four adults I originally had. I'm growing fond of them, but I'm not sure of how good an idea it would be to keep them. I'm going to list a few questions that I need definite answers on. 1. How many, if any at all...

    Got Geckos?

    There are many color phases that have been bred in these geckos, many beautiful. BTW, the latin name means: Eublepharis= eye lid Macularius= spotted Aside from that, I unfortunately don't have any scanned in pics of my own gecko but I found some that look very similar. Her color...

    Sick Goldfish in Outoor Pond

    I just had a huge argument about this whole thing. Everybody is yelling, they won't listen. It's hopeless. The only thing I can do is to pray that a heron or egret comes to eat all of them. The priorities thing came up because I've been waiting on jobs to call me. I can't do anything but...

    Sick Goldfish in Outoor Pond

    I've tried to talk to him about it, but he won't listen to me. Last night I brought the issue up, and he said to forget about it, that I needed to get my priorities straight. I think what I might do is just put down the sick ones, and take the others to a decent lfs. I wanted to try an maybe...

    Got Geckos?

    I've had a female leopard gecko for about three or four years now. She is one of the most interesting and cute little pets I've ever had. Her name is "Plasma", symbolic of her ancient reptilian blood. Little info on this species: Common/Latin Names: Leopard Gecko/ Eublepharis macularius...

    Building a Pond

    I'm no genuis on this stuff, but I wouldn't put RES and koi together. The turtles might be fin nippers, and they alone produce copius amounts of waste. The koi will produce a decent amount of waste as well. So I doupt you'd want to double the load. The koi alone should be fine, one thing to...

    Sick Goldfish in Outoor Pond

    Well, there are a few goldfish(don't know exact number because they hide) in our outdoor pond, and two are looking to be beyond help. They've had ulcers for some time and now it seems they cannot swim well. They are swaying a bit when they swim. They most likely have parasites too. Tomorrow, I'm...

    so desperate to sell pacu, they're throwing in the tank!

    Back to the topic at hand... I feel sorry for the poor fish too. Looks like it would be a fun addition as a family pet. Hell, you could probably teach her some tricks or even pet her. I also must say with Harlock that if anyone is nearby and has the space and time for someone in need of a...

    so desperate to sell pacu, they're throwing in the tank!

    "Hexadecimal" from the computer animated series, "Reboot". BTW, Mainframe Entertainment produced it, and they are located in Canada. :read: I'm so proud of my geekiness I cannot cantain myself. :p: Really did love those shows though, the were both funny and interesting. Another fact...

    Weird Octopus Ways -- bipedal behavior

    You can surely say they are very intelligent little beings! I've seen those shows on the disc. channel, and they really are a marvel. I love cuttlefish, they're such cutey-pies :p: They both seem to have wonderful personality expression in their color patterns, so vibrant.

    Length of Salt Baths for Goldfish

    I'm going to treat some of the goldfish in our outdoor pond for their ulcers and such, and I needed to know exactly how long each bath should be and how many times a week I should do it. We are going to get better filtration on their pond soon, but for now, the water appears pretty clear and...

    Why ARE Men Happier ?

    You know, men are fun to be around too. More of my friends have been men than other women. These days it is unfortunately true that women are often vicious in the ways they treat eachother. I hope one day I'm lucky enough to find a nice, loyal guy to share my life with. :p: I don't think I'd...

    Fish Increase Helps Fertilize Plants?

    I was reading the thread sticky about ferts and what not, and saw that an increase in fish could help fertilize plants. My fish numbers and species are listed in my sig. But I have swordtail fry in my tank as well. I've been unsure about keeping them, but if they could help I wouldn't mind. I...

    Tom Cruise is an idiot!!

    The reason some people do selective vacs is because of the mercury content in a preservative they use. It has been linked in some studies to autism and other disorders. However, it is because of the amount of vacs given such a short period of time, say by 6 months you'd 've had about 33 of them...

    I think I am cracking up and burned out

    I would suggest talking to a lawyer as well. I'm with foo on being unsympathetic toward ex-idiots, eventhough I haven't had much experience in that department. It still upsets me that people can't just be more considerate, especially if there are children involved in the matter. You'd think some...
