So I did a dirt tank for a local shop, and they want to put discus in it. Its only a 55 so I'm going to stop at 4 or 5, and the tank needs a few more weeks till I feel comfortable adding them. Anyhow figured I'd make a post on it and do some progress reports and a that. Here's a short video...

That's right, I'm rebuilding my garage fishroom. I moved some of my stuff into a spare room because the climate control is much better in there, but figured out that I have much more room in the garage. So, I forked out the money for a decent sized portable A/C unit, and now we are in...

Hello. I'm considering getting a handful of black kuhlis for my 120g angelfish tank. Anyone who has kept them have a little more info on them? I've never kept kuhlis but have kept a few other bigger loaches.

So new to SW for the most part, have done a bit of dabbling with high end brackish and also did a natural seawater tank for a while. Next project is a standard 29g. Just looking for some ideas and suggestions. Planning to get a boston bean cowfish, and want to build around that. For...

Can anyone tell me how these baffles are supposed to work? All 4 frag? tanks have them. The outermost one on each side is shorter and has a 1/4 in gap at the bottom. In the dead center there are 6 3/4" holes in line. Anyone have a clue how they had these set up? Sent from my LG-D850 using...

I'm doing a pretty substantial build with some frag tanks that I got a good deal on. They aren't going to be show tanks but serve a more utilitarian purpose. There's 4 tanks and they are 96x14x10. I'm considering using a 40b as a central sump since I have one available. Sent from my LG-D850...

Got some new fish in today, so I figured I would share. I got in some peacock gudgeons (no pic, had a DOA so a fast acclimation was in order). Also some Amazon puffer (Colomesus asellus), dwarf puffers, "Emerald Wag" platys, siamese algae eaters, silver lyretail mollies, Here's some pics.

So, I haven't really been doing much with tanks since my last rack setup which consists of 8 10s and 6 20s. But I saw a great deal that I couldn't pass up. I ended up getting 4 new tanks for $100. They are 8' long acrylic frag tanks. They are around 96x10x8 or something to that extent. I...

The blackbanded sunfish is a north american native. It is primarily found in sluggish backwaters and vegetated areas. It hails from blackwater type settings ranging to somewhat clear, but is almost always found in acidic water (again, ranging). Description: This is a small sunfish, I like...

Hi guys. Just wanted to share that we recently started a club here in the gulf coast. It spans from mississippi, alabama, to the florida panhandle. We are mostly freshwater fishkeepers but everyone is welcome. Our meetings are (for now) monthly and held in the Mobile, AL area. We are...

Just saw in one of the weekly wholesale lists, new glofish. A hybrid of the white skirt and lemon tetra. So now they are both gmo'ing as well as hybridizing new fish for mass production. I have my personal opinion but I'll get on that soapbox later.

I have a bunch of penn plax resin ornaments for sale. Most still have tags on them. There appears to be no damage on them that i can see. There's over 20 different ones. Pen in photo for size reference. Most pieces retail for 7.50 and up. Asking only $50 for the group, shipping included. US...

As some of you may know I've been growing submersed plants outside. Battling algae has been tricky, but the plants are still doing good. Here's a few pics. Wisteria is going red. Nesaea crassicaulis is not doing so hot, but otherwise everything is fine. :fish2:

Went out collecting today, got a few cool fish. A few tadpole madtoms, brown darters banded pygmy sunfish.

This is my currently favorite angelfish. There's a few blue marbles that we have that come in close second. He's still a juvie but looking better each day.

Just got my new solar powered fixture. Yes, they are pearling. Yes, there's co2 injection, lol.

Okay guys so I've been working on this project over the last month or so, and it has evolved quite a bit. My goal: To make an above ground pond, and to keep it clear enough to grow aquatic plants. Side goal: Collect and maintain breeding stocks of certain native fish species. My overall...

My florida softshell turtle thinks that he's a sand monster. Took a video with the gopro and thought I'd share.

Spring cleaning time, getting rid of some odds and ends and making room. Local pickup available in the Pensacola, FL area. Shipping on all plant orders = $7.50 I have some curly lucky bamboo stalks, all 12" or bigger, these look great in a vase on the counter or in a refugium/open top tank...

Hi guys. I'm looking to trade plants with someone here in the US. I'm primarily looking for less than common plants, not necessarily ultra rare, but not the most typical stuff. The only caveat is I already have a ton of plant species both in my tanks and greenhouse. So if it's relatively...

I have a 6 way co2 splitter made by aquatek. It's only a few months old, I just don't have a use for it anymore now that I'm running my co2 directly into a sump instead of separate tanks. Works fine, has some scratches and wear on it from having to put a wrench on it. Retails for around $65...
