Aww... I went scuba diving one time and the groupers were hanging out under the boat like stray puppies. Sigh, I guess the shark needed turf ...and surf. And no, it was interesting, you didn't ramble at all.

Oops! Too late! Already put 3 of them in the 5 gallon with the turds & co, I mean didn't want to put them in the 20 gallon with all the oscars that would just be silly.

OK, I'm a rookie and I figured I'd have some losses so I bought 12 green neons. All the pretty little turds lived. They are not nice to my elderly Beta... not harm her mean but like "Ha! Made you flinch!" kind of mean and I think they are getting chubby from eating baby shrimp all night. How...

Phew! They don't seem to have the odd head. So thank you, I'll tell her to start chowing!

Aww maannn so I do this thing where I take my baby spider plants, cut them free, bundle them up and lower them into my Beta tank to root. She loves them. When a bundles roots get to be too much it gets pulled and goes into soil. Well, (I'm so embarrassed, this is so dumb) I took my strawberry...

But don't you play it until they day after Halloween!!!

Hence my screen name. Ask my daughter how that worked out for Cinderella the goldfish. 😢

Hey gang! Since @betheboat used the bio boost could he add a big snail while he waits so there's something active for the kids to watch while he waits for it to cycle? (And thank you all, I learn a lot hanging out being wallpaper in here! I'm still saving up for my dream tank, not going to...
