    Baby snapper rescue.

    Curious to see how your snapper is to this day!!! My daughter 6yrs old hatched an egg, it's currently 2dys old and we are building ourselves a journey with it. If it happens to become too much, we do have a 1 acre pond it can move into

    LFS "Tanks being treated" && new findings at home

    This pet store is probably the size of a double wide.. and I have no "homegrown business" that sells fish. I have local feed mills, my nearest neighbor is a mile away, and it takes almost 45min to get to civilization. I've been going to this store for years on a weekly basis and this is the...

    Female Betta Question

    Can a Betta show their "Stress/Fear" stripes for other reasons? Mine always shows hers when she comes out to eat, she starts black.. comes to the front of the tank, turns a brown with black horizontal stripes, eats then when she's had 2-3 pieces she starts slowly turning back to black. I've...

    A word about pet stores from an employee

    I gotta admit.. my kids and the "carne-fish" are what got me back into tanks :)

    Betta tank; lots of questions!

    I always feed mine right before I turn my light out for the night.. I started in something shallow for them to get the hint they had to come to the surface to eat. Now I know when they're hungry because they float at the top like they're on a lazy river. ADFs are most active twards...

    A word about pet stores from an employee

    My LFS, Pet Supplies Plus, is pretty good. They don't have a huge fish wall like PetSmart, they have a few people there and if they're not sure... They tell you "I'm not sure, let me ask so-in-so they will know" Their employees tend to stay for a while too

    A word about pet stores from an employee

    While I do think you should do some research on your own.. I don't agree with the whole moron aspect. That would be like me being a mechanic and you bringing me your car and me saying "Take responsibility of your vehicle, Google the problem and gain knowledge of the car you bought" There is and...

    The joys of children... and fish.

    lol- It's okay. I think those fish weren't a good bunch anyways.. I stopped in to get some Frog food and the kids always want to look at the fish. Half of their wall had signs on the tank saying they were treating the tanks and the fish inside w. signs on them could not be bought. I posted about...

    How often do you lose fish?

    Same here.. that first 2wks with some are tricky. If you're under the 2wk mark you can always put them in a baggie and take in a cup of your water sample, 90% of the time.. they refund/replace the fish you've lost.

    LFS "Tanks being treated" && new findings at home

    At first I thought it was maybe losing a few during the end of the fish in cycling.. but the Betta and ADF had been in there for a few days before I got the Tetra. I've had the Betta since September and ADF since Summer. It was at Pet Supplies Plus, I've NEVER seen those signs before.. I've...

    LFS "Tanks being treated" && new findings at home

    I was jst at my LFS not even a week ago and purchased Neon Tetras. I had some die in the matter of a few days. I stopped in Today to get some food for my ADFs and noticed that half of the tanks had signs on them that said the tank was being treated ((they didnt have the lights in the tanks...

    The joys of children... and fish.

    I did my research, and assumed that they would be fine in the earlier stages of fish-in cycling considering that it had been a few days since the tank was already up housing a Betta and 2 ADFs. I honestly didn't think that after telling my son 'don't touch the dead fish in the bag, we have to...

    The joys of children... and fish.

    For one.. The fish were dead. The tank was once an on going tank.. I had to tear it down because of a complete snail overhaul. I got Tetras to go in it with my Betta and ADFs. I have an easier time cycling because I have well water fed from an underground stream.

    The joys of children... and fish.

    Picked up some neon tetras to do some fish-in cycling.. 2 died by the next morning and had a fuzz around them Then another died. I had them sitting in a baggie to get the receipt to take them back and get new ones. I walk past my tank, and I see brown stuff in the baggie.. THEYRE SMUSHED!!! My...

    Show off your Betta(s)!

    This is The Tailsman.. (The book in the background had no play in the choosing of his name, lol-:angel:) I got him in September 14 (first picture).. This is him now :) (last picture) ((Note: He is not in either of these tanks anymore. He resides in a MUCH larger filter/heated tank))

    That looks really good!! I love how the mirror is behind it! Very nice, and tell your mom another mom said high-5, you could be wanting to do something a lot worse with your time :)

    Betta tank; lots of questions!

    PetSmart has an Aqueon Betta Bow2.5 it comes with the whole setup, my g.f has one and has frogs in it. They're quite nice.. Edit.. a black one for a few $$ cheaper and it comes with a separating screen.
