Hey everybody, I'm in the market for a Kirin/Killin Bonsai Blood Parrot. I know BP's aren't big on this forum but what the heck, you gotta try, right? I do know that these are available on AquaBid, however, if you have knowledge of another source for this species, could you please let me...

Eat lionfish? Sure, but beware of the nasty toxins - Vitals Eat lionfish? Sure, but beware of the nasty toxins Getty / Lionfish may be lovely to look at, but the invasive, voracious fish are regarded as the scourge of the seas. By JoNel Aleccia A federal plan to battle invasive...

Hey guys, About a month ago, a fellow fishkeeper gave me a japanese trapdoor snail. I love this guy. I'm at work so can't post a photo. He's a good size and seems to be very healthy. Right now, he's in my 75 gallon. There's lots of natural algae for him but I was wondering what to...

One of my striped kuhlis has developed a most interesting pattern..... although I've seen some striped kuhlis with what's called "wear spots", I've never seen such an exact pattern of polka dots before......

Got a gorgeous gold nugget pleco at my fave lfs yesterday. Pricey, but what the heck. I don't spend that much often and besides, I can claim him as a Mother's Day gift. :whistle: I assumed that all plecos eat algae. Dummy head. In doing some research last night, many sites indicate that this...

Do you have any? Please PM me. Shipping would be to CT.

Well, sometime overnight, the impeller on my Fluval C4 got fried. So, I find myself in the market for a new filter for this tank. I don't want a canister for this particular tank, at this time, so it's going to be HOB. I have liked the Fluval C4, no real issues with it, have had it for awhile...

I've successfully uploaded photos using Manage Attachments many times. Today, however, it's uploading a photo with the correct title, but it's a photo I didn't even take and that does not exist in the folder from which I'm extracting the intended photo. What the heck is going on? How can that...

I received 3 sections of taiwan moss in the mail yesterday. Only 1 really has much green to speak of and has already started perking up quite well. The other 2 sections are mostly brown with very little specks of green in there. What would be the best method to revive the moss? :thanks:

I got an unexpected work bonus, so it may finally be time to upgrade the lighting on my tanks. I have a 75 gallon and a 46 gallon bowfront that I would like to turn into planted tanks. My 16 gallon RCS tank seems to do fine with its existing lighting and the low light plants I have in it. I...

Please see my signature line for the inhabitants of my 46 gallon community. I was really surprised to see the tank walls speckled with lots of little eggs this morning. They are laid like cory eggs would be, individually. They are about cory egg size, yet I have no corys in this tank...

Yesterday, I was so surprised to see a little peppered cory frybaby in my tank! He was coming out to munch on one of the algae wafer pieces I tossed in the tank. I no longer put entire wafers in but rather I break them into pieces so that the tank inhabitants aren't all on top of each other...

Last night, I stopped at my fave mom & pop lfs to pick up some corys I saw there earlier in the week. They were super busy! It's only a 2 person shop at any time and last night, there was one kinda experienced guy and one virgin salesman and there were loads of customers. I was watching the...

My peppered and pygmy corys leave the RCS alone, but I read that loxozonus is a crustacean eater. I'm considering getting some. Will they eat my RCS? :ermm:

I got two BN plecos a few months ago. I was growing them out in my 46 gallon community prior to placement in my 75 gallon community. I thought they'd finally gotten large enough for the transfer and so I waited until it was easy to scoop one up. There's always been somewhat of a size...

I'm not quite sure how to phrase this question. Here's my scenario. I've been told I have low light. I want to upgrade my lights so that plants would do well in my tanks. I'm unfamiliar with all the terminology, so please bear with me. You know how table lamps might have a sticker that says...

I have one flame gourami in my 46 gallon community. I really love the way he looks and he adds some great color to the tank. Can I have more than one or are they the type of gourami that stress each other to death? I was hoping for two more? I have the room, as most of my fish are small...

I keep Apache, my featherfin, in a tank with emperor tetras and my blood parrots. These fish are real pigs which has sometimes made attempting to get food just to Apache an exercise in futility. He's always been pretty shy and I'd have to sit pretty still in the chair to be able to observe...

I responded to someone's query about fry food and suggested that they might try abc items at xyz.com. When checking my User CP threads, that thread came up and so I opened it and saw that my post was deleted. Are we not allowed to offer website information like that? Thanks!

I know that my BPs will slurp any small fish like spaghetti. Sadly, I learned from experience. I recently got two small bristlenose plecos that I bought for the BP tank, however, I'm growing them out a bit in the community tank to give them the opportunity to beef up to unslurpable size. :D...

Have there been threads for the October categories somewhere for voting? Did I miss them again? :oops:

I realized this morning that having bought my fish food in bulk, I have a large amount of freezedried bloodworms to offer as a swap. Still in the market for plants, so let me know if you're interested. Let me know also if you have something other than plants you might want to offer. You never...

I would like more plants for my low light tanks. I have some Decapsulated Brine Shrimp (good for both fry and small fish species) and Golden Pearls (good for fry) food that I would like to swap for your plants. I will pay my shipping, you will pay yours. Please let me know if you're...

I know where you enter a photo for submission, but never saw the August poll go out? Where does that get posted and how late in the month does it get posted? Thanks!
