Rock on Moby, we got your back, your on task With the Africans.

Will enjoy you eating your emocons.. lol friendly bet is on!!! you have however already lost this one

Yes, without doubt.. for one ocellatus examples have been reported to grow to about 45 cm (18 in) in length and 1.6 kilograms (3.5 lb) in weight...wiki link and a fully mature specimen can and will vary to a %. roll your eyes all you want... then prove it wrong!! or better yet I can get the...

I would err on the side of caution and assume that they do not.. Even if this is true that they "may" regenerate.. the pain involved is substantial and the thickening is equal to scar tissue.. All of the above equates to a reduced quality of life and should be avoided if at all possible...

Or more.. I've seen them at 14-18" and probably 4 lbs easy

Media will remain viable for a few days in transit if packaged correctly. 2-3 days really, easily maybe more. Might look for possible donations up to 500+ miles... Be aware it doesn't excuse you from water changes, just reduces the time to cycle the filter.

The have been in for a bit, tank is getting fish in 2 days. I have a pack of the medium in transit and it should finish this out nicely.. No weight= no need for milk crate. and hollow = little water displacement. Love em.. and yes I shopped and got the 10 pack for a bit less.. The plants in...

This stops here... yeah right.. :rolleyes: Oh yeah .. Crab bongos, crabby crab bongos!!!! :cool: :drink: Need's more cowbell!!!

Looks allot like this Oscar reflection He is seeing his own reflection in the glass and defending his territory.. put a dark backing and side on the tank like the linked post recommends maybe?

Being a cold blooded animal (given that they have a certain amount of activity) a fish should be able to last a week or two before they are at risk of wasting away . If they were more sedentary I would give them months.. Patience, When it gets hungry, and only the "new"food is available It will...

:D thank you , that is as stated the "quarantine tank" they will live there for a week b4 i let em swim with the rest. The black makes it easier for me, at least, to see any abnormalities present. I'm really liking these boy's allot. New to me lfs by the way.. might have to frequent them more...

I'm relatively new to "researched" proper fish keeping but common scene would dictate that a given species requires a specific area to facilitate its swimming style, its temperament, etc, you also have to take into account its bio-load ( how much does it poop)..And about a million other ideas...

I have noticed the differences in color over time as well... But as stated the kit says 5 min so 5 min it is. Ok maybe 10 but no longer :D I myself took a hole punch to the card and will not only put it beside but also pass it behind the holes (with a proper white background) to give myself a...

Oh.. I see you actually want to try a marine tank though or you wouldn't have asked... Get with it and update us freshies on how it goes already...

Just found these and couldn't resit.. The pictures are from the quarantine tank.. These 3-3.5 Inch males are stunning in my opinion...So much color for being so small... Will be a great addition to my peacock tank :good:
