I love your betta's and how nice they had such a treat

good thing you saw the little guy in their, poor thing was probably wondering
what the hell,lol.

I presume snails dont have a reverse gear?

chibikaie · 12-30-2012, 07:03 PM

I don't think I've ever seen a snail crawl backwards, come to think of it. They're always oozing forward.

Bought a cardinal on that trip to LI last time

Doing well!

cichlids

This betta sneaked through a divider and got very very beat up

found him under an IAL while the other betta was strutting around. hes in a quart container now and looks like he is healing already..

Love my danios!

my lady cory is always very very very lumpy. its gross looking. eggs everywhere, and being chased constantly.

dad

dangila!

Enough photos already...

furnfins · 12-31-2012, 11:52 AM

Great pictures, it's never enough photo's

love your fish they're all beautiful. That little cory looks like those eggs are going to pop out her mouth!
That plant is reallly nice, looks like it's going to need to be trimmed in a few weeks,lol,I'll buy a piece

Could a plant like that live in a hob filter?

Nice ! Do you have a female krib too ?

If you've had the standard tanks for years and are looking for a way to avoid the large, weekly water changes, and still maintain pure water conditions, then research the use of the Chinese Evergreen. Emersing this plant in the tank water will remove all the nitrogens and create a vertually, "self-sustaning" tank for your fish.

The tank needs only a small, backup filter and water replaced a couple of times a week due to evaporation. Maintenance takes an hour a week tops.

If you're wanting to keep the fish healthy without all the work, then this may be your solution.

Bringing this back. I just did a trim, got more Blyxa if anyone is interested.

**ptr** · 02-09-2013, 04:16 PM

Hmmm, yes, I could use a few blyxas if nobody wants them.

William is also desperately looking for some.

Bluek24a4 · 02-09-2013, 04:56 PM

I got a few blyxas for anyone who can come get them in the next few days. Id love any low light plants anyone might have in return, but if not they are still welcomed to some blyxa.

Sure, how much do you have? I'm sure that more people will be as well during the swap meet in a few weeks.
