Tank looks great. I love dwarf sag. That is going to look awesome shortly (when it fills in - won't take long).



And off topic, that is not a truck :flick:

This is a truck :icon_cool

LOL that thing is a beast! I'd give little old ladies heart attacks driving something like that around Naples! :icon_cool

Actually, there's no dwarf sag in there- it's all E. tenellus "regular" and E. tenellus 'narrow' All the E. tenellus 'narrow' came out of my little 10gal tank- plus I gave and traded about 1/2 of my 'narrow' away! :icon_eek: That tank had 4 years' growth in it, though.

Since there's no CO2 on this tank it is all taking its time filling in...

My bad.

I just pulled my 2 month growth of dwarf sag out of the tank to redo it. Started with about 15 plants. Now I have 10+ in my 28, replanted 35+ in my 210, and still have a good 50 if not more :eek5:.

 

[lauraleellbp]

That's a ton of sag! Sounds like you'll be making some sales or trades in the S&S soon

 

[MikeS]

I would, but I really haven't dabbled with paypal. I thought about it, but.......

 

[lauraleellbp]

You could always do just trades if you don't want to use PayPal.

I've never had a problem with PayPal personally, though.

 

[MikeS]

My main concern with paypal is where does the money go? How do I get to it? Etc? With everyone using it today, I believe it's safe. Just have questions. And seeing I really haven't had a need for it, I have never looked that far into it.

Now swapping, that might be an idea. Thx.

 

[lauraleellbp]

It works pretty much the same as a debit card linked to a bank account. You can leave money in the PayPal account or you can pull it to or from your account of choice. You can also have PayPal linked to a credit card... IME it's pretty straightforward.

:thumbsup:
No this is

And the tank's looking good Laura, to keep on subject

LOL What is it with guys and camo'd trucks? I love the Ridgeline inset though :thumbsup:

Back on topic... I have a VERY fat cory cat... and no GBR eggs left. I think the parents stopped guarding the eggs. I got home from running some errands and there was a cory with a bulging belly scavenging around the sword leaf where the eggs were, and the parents were scattered around the tank.

Feeding frozen foods seems to be a huge spawning trigger for them, and I fed Mysis tonight... we'll see if any of the other females come into spawning condition. There was one female last night that kept hanging close, was flirting with the male and was wearing some shimmery violet coloration... I'm going to keep an eye on her.

I see the vesuvious in the center of the tank.. it looks good.. now you just have to get it to grow like crazy!

No real changes, just some new pics. Haven't seen any additional spawning since the last time.

First, the Apisto that's the King of the QT tank:

And just some shots of the tank and its inhabitants, in no order other than the order they were shot:

clear water is a site for sore eyes

Is that a dead fish in #6?

Looks like a fat otto suckin' on the glass

 

[ColeMan]

it's hard to believe its the same tank without all that green in the way...so the cory ate the GBR eggs...wouldn't you have done the same thing? And while you were away, also - smart fish.

Yeppers! :thumbsup:

Anyone spot the TWO preggers Amanos? One you can't really tell she's berried, since you can only see her back. She's red and vividly striped though. The Big Girl is only seen in silhouette, she tends to stay back in the shadows b/c otherwise the Pristellas try and steal her eggs!

 

[forddna]

Looks nice!!!!!!! I just might be inspired to rescape now!

 

[SeaSerpant]

It looks great. It looks WAY better without the green water.
