Wilds

[wuvmybetta]

I boil a pot of water and dip them for like a minute, then lay them out to dry, and use em! I stick them in the microwave if they've sat in the fish room for a while or something. The water gets milky the first two days after you put them in but it clears up really fast.

Very interesting! come summer time I'll have to give it a shot... don't really have any leaves around right now, being winter and all

And what is it with the wilds lately? my Imbellis are spawning like rabbits lately too, every day, some times twice a day there are more eggs! madness, even tho one of my Koi Swordtails that lives with them was eating the eggs, she was promptly moved!

I'm not sure what it is but I'm guessing the cooler temperatures?

Mahachai update-After spawning with male #2, I guess she felt pity for male #1 as he has a nest full of eggs now too! Or he kidnapped male # 2's J/K, they both have eggs which means one female spawned with two males today! I took the second female out last night as female #1 was bullying her a bit. Strange!

Taken from one corner of the tank. Just an example of the insanity which is now known as 'baby mania'
I hate how photobucket decreases my pic size. to see the baby's close up click on that weird box in the bottom right corner after maximizing.

Nice pics.
They do keep you busy.
Good job on the Java Ferns, too.

So teensy-tiny!

 

[wuvmybetta]

There's just hundreds of them, all different ages, it's crazy! But quite a learning experience. It's quite remarkable how different they are. Good parents and siblings etc

Sue, I couldn't kill that fern if I tried! I've had them since October and they don't get any light or anything.

Ah-Ha! If I ever get a Betta from you, send me a leaf.

[wuvmybetta]

Will do, Sue.

Sukie, I got these particular fish from our last show. They were sent in for our wild class.

 

[sukie]

Oh man!!! It sucks to be me then. . . . I don't have any shows near where I live. . .
