My wife's coworker is a bird keeper and her coworker got a canary for my wife. My wife is very excited but I will most likely be the one who will have to take care of the bird in the end. Anyone here keeping birds? Are they more work than keeping fish? I definitely don't want to join a bird...

Is anyone from MoCo/Frederick planning to go to the Super Pet Expo? I was supposed to pick up plants at the April meeting from Chris Teem and I'm not going to be able to go because there's a surprise party for my mom's 60th in Philly that day. I was wondering if anyone a little closer to...

Anybody ever gone to any of their annual events? there is one this weekend (March 21-23) and i want to know if there will be some nice fish we can see in there?

They are my daughter's rats, and she isn't caring for them properly, and is leaving their care to me. I'm allergic to them, and I already have my hands full with my fish, so I am trying to find a new home for the rats. They are very tame and gentle. If anyone is interested, here is their info...

First arowana and its a jardini :)

I do love looking at pictures of other's aquariums. I get to be impressed and get good ideas (like for my Chi from mini tanks at Aquamania). But sometimes I see aquarium set ups that make me lose my mind! I have to restrain myself from chiming in my unasked for two cents! So here are some of...

Hi everyone, look at the new addition to my family. He is a pastel and spider gene python named Bugo. He is sweet and adorable and very friendly. I post pictures of his habitat soon but right now he is being kept in a big long tupperware with a bowl of water, some mulch-like bedding and a little...

Just bought one of these bad boy it was hard to find because every time I was told they had one I will drive all the way there and it wasn't it! Finally I found a pet smart that had only one out of a tank of about 15 supposedly red Texas cichlids. Here a pic of mine.. Sent from my iPhone using...

So I went into Petco today to pick up various foods (frozen and dry) for my cichlid tanks when some cichlids from afar caught my eye. Someone had donated 25-30 med to large Cobalt Blue and Red Zebra cichlids. Petco was selling them for 2.00 a piece which i thought was a great deal. I had the...

I will be in North Carolina this weekend, just outside of Raleigh. Does any one know of any pet/fish stores in the area worth visiting? I'll be driving, so anything along the main route would work too. I can look up what is local to the area, but would rather know what is worth my time. Anyone...

While on another forum, someone asked this question. I thought it was a good one and would like to hear some of your opinions. What do you think is wrong with fish stores? What would make you go more often? However, I want to remind you that this is not for stores that exist. Do not bring...

I caught a spider on April 24, 2011. I was able to identify it as a Wolf Spider. From what I can tell my spider is specifically a Lycosidae Pardosa Pullata, commonly known as the "Common Wolf Spider". My spider now resides in a plastic terrarium. The substrate is Eco-Earth. There are fake...

The Super Pet Expo is at the Dulles Town Center next weekend. I saw on their site that WAMAS is a sponsor and vendor and PVAS is also listed as a vendor. Does CCA have any plans to be represented at this event?
