    You mean choices good all?

    What would you do if you had two 150 gal tubs?

    I did Buenos Aries tetras ( 5 to 7) outside and had hundreds in the fall. If you get sun do water hyacinth. Great roots that eat all the fish waste and give you gorgeous flowers. Food you can get at the market but those flowers feed your soul. Some of your favorite Africans in the other one...

    The Big Fish Deal 2016

    Who is in charge of the weather this year. I almost got killed on the way to Dulles last year. Rental car had nothing in the wiper fluid and the slush was fun on the windshield. You guys need to get a handle on this. Call on a higher power or something. By the way, I missed all of you...

    Hurricane!!!!

    People go buy a bunch of stuff because they feel they should do something but they do not know what to do. Running around like a chicken without a head buying stuff seems like a good idea. Getting the generator ready like Pat does is too directed for most folks. I think the best thing to...

    Hurricane!!!!

    One never knows but my favorite weather guy tells me you folks can rest easy. The beast is going to drop lots of water on the Carolinas and turn away. It is shifting east. Sorry to disappoint the alarmists amongst you but I do not think you will need the generator Pat. P.S. Hope to see...

    I May Be Crazy, I want to Double Stack Two Large Tanks!!!

    I had a 180 6 footer over a 265. They were both plywood so lighter than glass but I still think you could get away with 2 by 6 if you use three up top and good bracing at the ends. The 265 was also 17 inches off the floor. If you could get Chris to do welded though it would be a whole lot...

    Summer tubs

    I found that chipmunks and birds got tangled in that black netting and died. Not fun. Chicken wire is cheap ans works well but looks awful. It really doesn't get too hot there to breed almost anything outside. My favorite plant was water hyacinth. Really cleans things up, gorgeous...

    Are wild caught fish verifiable and worth the investment?

    I have to agree with most of what you have posted so far and would push tank raised over wild caught but there is one very good reason to bring in wild caught from time to time. Now this may not apply to all but many fish are so established in the hobby that almost all you see is tank raised...

    AM3 The Big Fish Deal Picture Thread

    Late but I have been VERY busy. It was greater than you know to be seen. Most of the people I care about were there. I am hoping there will be a BFD 3 and I plan to be there.

    Food for Rams

    I have known people who kept their Rams with Their Discus. Everybody ate fine. As long as the bits are not too big you should be fine feeding them the same things. Of course that all changes feeding fry but you did not mention breeding. Whole different subject.

    Cold in Florida

    It was actually on the TV news that they tried to bring many inside. If you have ever seen the ponds you know that is not easy. This happened before in 2010 and they recovered so I wouldn't worry too much. Just found it interesting.

    Cold in Florida

    Hey folks, it was cold at my house this morning. Many of you know where I live. No sympathy when you are in single digits or even worse, right? I live on the water just an eighth of a mile or so from the Gulf of Mexico. Got into the 30s at my house. Big deal, right. Well inland from me...

    Tropheus question

    You have gotten good stuff so far. I always kept a group as big as yours in a 100 so a 90 should be good. The 55 might be a bit small. I do not Agree with the no hiding place thing though. I had piles of rocks and had females hide there when they were holding. Babies seemed to appear out of...

    New 55 gallon Angelfish/community tank with a stand that I built

    Nice update. More val and four super fish. Really wish I had room to do angels again. Hope they pair up for you. George

    The next meeting could be tough but this BIG FISH DEAL sounds like something I might have to check out. Sounds like some good stuff going on and I might even know a couple of people there. Big fish show? Can I sell manatees out of my room? How about dolphins? Just ask'in? In case.
