Happy Easter!

yes, I have ramshorn snails breeding in two of my other tanks

I love my pea puffer! I've got him in a 9 gallon cube tank with 6 chili rasbora's and a few cherry shrimp and he is living his best life! As for the snails, get a handful of ramshorn snails and give it a couple weeks, you'll have plenty of live food for your puffer

Well, you know what they say, "Opinions are like a**holes, everyone has one"

Christmas moss has always done well in my tanks with little upkeep

The light is not completely turned off, just dialed back a bit in some of the color spectrum's. As far as Excel goes, to each their own, but it works for me and I guarantee my fish are treated with just as much care and are just as healthy as any I've seen.

I had a decent breakout of BBA a few weeks ago. I cut back the light during the day (basically set the light to reduce for about two hours mid-day) and I started using Excel when I do larger water changes...seems to be helping quite a bit

Oddly enough, this is/was my quarantine tank and has somehow become solitary confinement for a sole Polar blue convict cichlids (Amatitlania siquia), 3 spotted corydoras and a LOT of ramshorn snails trying to keep pace to feed my pea puffer in another tank. I've really enjoyed how this little...

I wouldn't say he is peaceful...he just makes sure any fish around him gets out of his way. He doesn't chase any of my other fish...again, unless they are in his path and they quickly just move away. I nicknamed him "Grump" because of the way his eyes make him look pissed off all the time.

I've had one since I first started my tank journey...he's always done well as he transitioned from one tank, to another and to his home in the 40G breeder.

Waiting for the LFS to open to get a new plant or two and hopefully find a rock for my 10-gallon column tank. Then it's Super Bowl time and trying to forget about the full day of work looming on Monday.

I know, life got in the way...next time!

2/7/2023 - Tank continues to fill in as the plants do their thing. I added a second 5 pound bag of sand substrate since the last update. Outside of that and the small banana plant on the front right and the rock kind of hanging out in the spider wood in the far left...everything else is the...

I feel that...

Today was all about the boys...one to his theatre company auditions for next year and the other a wrestling tournament. Dinner after with the family at an overpriced Longhorn, but quality time nonetheless. Now it's time for this old man to nerd a little on some video games.

A little work, a little water testing and trying to determine what is in store for me this weekend fish keeping wise...pretty sure the 307 needs it's first cracking since install a few months ago.

I have a pea puffer in a 7-gallon with 8 shrimp and they all do fine. The shrimp have already had offspring and while I thought they may have been eaten by my pea puffer, nope...just saw the little cherry shrimp yesterday. I believe I've heard possibly a small school of chili rasboras with a...
