    Scarlet Gem Badis Breeding?

    Cool, I read online you can start a paramecium culture from just tank water. It won't be ready for this batch but certainly for future ones. Kinda neat how this hobby can take you to so many diff. places.

    Scarlet Gem Badis Breeding?

    I don't want to get ahead of myself but if I do get fry and can sex them later on id be happy to send you several females only for the cost of shipping. Not sure if you want more fish or want to pay shipping for a few but just offering.

    Scarlet Gem Badis Breeding?

    Thanks! Ironically I was bummed when I realized I had 2 females and a male, I only wanted males for their looks and had no interest in breeding. But now that I saw them mating it's pretty exciting and interesting. I hope it all goes well and I see fry.

    Scarlet Gem Badis Breeding?

    Found a nice guide for cultivating micro worms, seems pretty easy. None of my local pet stores sell them, would you be willing to sell me a starter group?

    Scarlet Gem Badis Breeding?

    I just literally caught my Scarlet Gem Badis doing the do in the leaves of my cabomba. I thought they were fighting, looked closer and the male wrapped around the female. I read online the female should lay her eggs on leaves and the fry aren't typically eaten by other Dario Dario. Anything...

    Pro Caught Stuffing Bass with Lead Weights During Tourney

    Well when you're done making claims on my behalf that I did not make, feel free to explain how a cheating fisherman and some poor decisions on fish stocking in select areas calls for an immediate ban on professional fishing and eradication of all bass in non-native areas. Never did I say it...

    Pro Caught Stuffing Bass with Lead Weights During Tourney

    My post wasn't in reference to your views on the ecosystem, it was in reference to the term you used to describe those who participate. I'm not denying that they may have caused damage to certain areas, but overall I don't see or hear anything about them decimating native species of fish or...

    DIY Co2 Problem

    Nope no leaks at all, I think it's also just the back pressure. Im going to get a "T" connector tomorrow and set up another bottle and see what happens. I just threw a fine bubble air stone on the end but took it off to see if it was adding to the back pressure problem. Ill update once the...

    DIY Co2 Problem

    So I set up diy Co2 for the first time on my 20g high, and it's producing co2, as in I can see about 1 bubble per 1-2 seconds going into the second water bottle. Problem is, Im just not getting enough pressure to push the air into the water. Im using 1 2l bottle and it is beneath the tank in...

    Ich, right?

    Yes, ich has only been a problem when getting new fish. The tank was cycled 2 weeks before adding the fish, and I'm sure parameter flucuations contributed to the outbreak. Just wanted to make sure it was ich as I've not had a case this bad. Ill continue with my heat/salt treatment and daily...

    Ich, right?

    I am battling what I was sure was ich(I still think it is) but I figured I better check in to make sure. I just got my new fish a week ago and waited patiently for the inevitable onset, as Ive battled it many times before. Sunday I noticed my first few white spots on fins, and started raising...

    whats your favorite fish?

    1. Satanoperca juruparu is my fav. I impulse bought one when I saw him picking up sand and sifting it through his gills, fun personality and just beautiful. 2. Syno. Euruptus(sp) -featherfin- had 2 of these, beautiful fish and just stunning when they come out at night, fins fully erect and...

    Got my 55g yesterday! YAY!

    Kinda sounds like you dont want to use the existing substrate. If so, dont even bother as it sounds like more work. Your old filter is plenty, especially if it's just 10g stock going into a 55g. Like they said, run both old and new(when you get it) for a few weeks then simply remove the old...

    Weee new setup!

    Yeah they are still adding stuff. I really liked the previous store, I got an S. Jurupari and a S. Luecsticha(sp?) Years back, JPs seems more salt water oriented, as he stated in the newspaper. I hate the petco here.

    Striata botia loach in carpeted tank?

    Oh wow those Yasuhi's are beautiful, never seen them. Unfortunately I was hoping to find something to fill out my order with live aquaria. Min is $30 and cardinals are on sale for $.99. Nearest store bought are an hour south and $4 a pop. But now they are out of Otos. I hate my luck. And I hate...
