Crayfish? Yes? or No?

C'mon guys. Keep it cool. The shrimp question was answered. Let's just lay everything down to rest...

Since you're on an aquarium topic I think you should know that a little crushed coral in your filter will serve to raise your KH and help stabilize your pH, allowing you to continue using your CO2 injection system. Also, bamboo shrimp are filter feeders. It's possible that they grew to a size where they weren't getting enough food out of the water column and simply starved.

Didn't you just start keeping fish like, in September? Or was that just plants...? Were you not the author of a post, September, this year, that went like this:

Hi all. I have a 55g planted tank that I would like to start fetilizing. I'm new to the planted aquarium thing and have asked questions about it here before. I would like to start using CO2 and ferts to help my plants outcompete algae but, before I do, should I get rid of my air stones? I kind of like them and the fish love them. I'd hate to have to ditch them. I have two six inch air stones running off of a small air pump. Are they causing so much surface motion that they would release the vast majority of any CO2 introduced by a DIY setup? I also have a canister filter so no surface movement from that baby

Airstones? How cute. With CO2? Hardy har. Having trouble with algae, and think the problem is no CO2 and lack of nutrients?? Hardy freakin har.

And you are going to give me advice? Bad advice at that?

Might want to check your anger and ego at the door... you need to ask a lot of questions before you make such a suggestion, especially about putting crushed coral in a tank.

And there was no implication in the question that I desired to continue to use my CO2. You need to read more thoroughly, instead of searching for places to be non-responsive and condescending.


And my KH is high enough, and my pH is not unstable. And your experience in this field is not lengthy enough for me to be impressed.

And thanks for falling for my setup, again.

You don't. But you seem to think that you can predict the future of all those who use bad grammar.

That was not an example of bad grammar. It was an example of something far worse than that. That is like saying Hiroshima was a standard explosion.

Okay, so all those who use bad grammar will become criminals and the world will descend into a sea of criminals who use bad punctuation.

Not soon enough.

Adult? Not by my barometer, based on what I have seen.
Imbalanced, perhaps.

This coming from someone who, by his own admission, enjoys continuing this argument for the same reasons that I do.

The parenting comment was bait- I hope you don't play chess. It was the kind of move that sets one up to lose either way he reacts.
1. If you said you were a parent, you would look the fool for some of your previous comments
2. By stating you are not a parent, that discredits your opinion to some degree on the issue.

Thanks for reacting.

Yeah, your intelligence is really scary. How do you carry your massive cranium around all day? I was more interested in seeing with where you would possibly go with that comment. Being a true derelict loser, you had plans to either attack my parenting or imply that I know nothing about it. You truly are a scum sucking @ss. Now that you've written down your intentions, everyone knows it.

I do play chess........and I'm actually pretty good.

Responsibility to be non-judgemental?
I am going to suggest you become a parent before you try to teach people a lot older than you how to act in the adult/child relationship.

A continuation of your aforemetioned strategy, I supposed? How droll.

I have to stoop... it is the only way I can smell you...

You see? No one is above anyone else. Thank you for proving that.

I feel sorry for the person in your life...Perhaps she is not at work and actually running like hell to avoid you???

Yes you are unbalanced...A good counselor and a shot of thorazine will fix you up skippy :)

Peace :)

I can assure you, she is quite happy. And that's all you really need to know about that. :)

And, again, I ask why you're coming to the aid of a man who feels good about putting down a child in an internet discussion board? How's your husband treating you lately? Perhaps he's getting a little tired of the old routine? Must be since you're apparently so pent up you have so much time to involve yourself in the sex-lives of your siamese fighting fish..........how is the little breeding experiment coming?

Nobody predicted the future. I pointed out the overwhelming presence of those who are ignorant in the criminal world, and condemned to unfortunately work at menial jobs perhaps the rest of their lives.
So not predicting the future- commenting on the present. The kid has his own choices still to make.

You are going to have to point that one out to me.

Your foul language and childish insolence speaks for itself. I need take no action other than engage you to illustrate the difference of "level".

Just plants.

Hmmmmm.....some people in the aquatic plants forum who I'm sure know a lot more about water chemistry than you can ever fathom have recommended that and other methods to me. Are you implying that they are somehow giving bad advice as well? Why don't you look and see who gave what advice from over there and tell them that they are giving bad advice.......but, wait, you can't............because you don't know much about water chemistry........

TetraBotia said:

Sooooooooooooooooooooo........you're saying that a small amount of crushed coral, on the order of a few tablespoons, placed in your filter, will not help to raise your KH and help stabilize your pH? This runs contrary to everything I've ever read from the people who've answered any of my questions on this forum.

TetraBotia said:

True. But you did imply that your pH was getting so low that it might be harmful your shrimp. Since they can tolerate a good range of pH, you must have been pretty **** low to have that concern.


TetraBotia said:

Just dropping so low from your CO2 addition that it's dangerous to your shrimp...................


TetraBotia said:

First off, I doubt that this was a trap that was deliberately set up. You're not smart enough.............if it was, it was a bad one since I'm just repeating info that was told to me by some pretty knowledgeable sources.
And, believe me, if I ever aspire to impress you I'll have really reached a new low in life.
 
Oh- after some of the last portrayals of insolence from this child, concerning alluding to sexual situations in peoples homes, I think it is time to flush this individual.

I think I would actually go so far as to request perhaps the removal of such low ended personality. While some may disagree with tactics employed in conversation methods on this board, such personal attacks and language is not acceptable.

Very revealing as to the character, or lack thereof, of the poster, but not acceptable.

Hey, I'm not the one who started talking smack about my girlfriend. I just implied that maybe you need to take out some aggression with a good romp instead of beating up on a kid. You're the one who attempted an attack on my parenting. Then, you and Pixie decided it would be a good idea to make an assault on my relationship with my girlfriend. You start bringing her into it then fair is fair.
