    Perpetuating stereotypes in the hobby...not a bad thing, actually!

    The Doctor is in… Yeah, so what if I have no formal psychological training, and am grumpy, presumptuous, and often way off in my assessments of stuff…Fact is, I AM a keen observer of the aquarium-keeping world, and with my dual powers of assumption and opinion, I can make uncannily...

    This Is a REALLY bad day

    Years ago I was changing water in a fry tank with Beuscheri's and forgot to dechlorinate. I lost 40+ fry. Someone was helping me and we each thought the other had done it. It was the only time I ever did it and to this day I still regret it. This shows that stuff can happen to any one...

    Bad day for water changes

    Long story short, I was working on my 125 at school. I got distracted by a phone call and overfilled the tank. I cut the water off as the water in the tank filled the trim ledge. I thought the worst was behind me. I was wrong. My FX5 began leaking while turned off. I panicked and disconnected...

    The good, the bad, and the ugly

    So last night I went down the check on some holding females I had that have been holding for a while now. There were 4 mom's out of a bunch that have been holding for around 2 weeks. The good: stripped the 2 tangerine tigers and got over 50 fry! Stripped one albino Socofoli and got a whopping...

    Help! good or bad decision?

    Hey, I'm new to cichlids and fishkeeping in general. Tonight, walking home in the rain I picked up a few earth worms on the sidewalk that had been flooded out of the ground and threw them in my south american tank. They were instantly gobbled up by my jack dempsey and my salvini. Was this okay...

    bad news and wtb flower-horn

    So yeterday at the meeting I picked up my 4 balzani and a "female" festae for my male. After acclimating the festae I decided to vent it just to be sure it's a female, it was a male. I'm not willing to buy $100 worth of fish (minimum order) and pay full shipping just for a festae that might be...

    Does Prime Go Bad?

    I'm (again) fighting a nitrite spike in one of my tanks. I did a water change on Sunday and by Monday the fish were gasping and one was dead. I had not even opened any of the filter and didn't do a particularly aggessive job of vaccuming the gravel. I've been doing water changes, adding a sponge...

    Bah ... Bad Timing

    Talk about bad timing, my second pair of angelfish decided that they would do their thing this past Sunday. Not only that, but they manage to get it right and about 3/4 of the eggs are wigglers. Lift off day would be either Saturday or Sunday and of course, we go on vacation to sunny Florida...
