    How supportive are your partners in this hobby?

    Within the last few months my wife and son (5 year old) have expressed a lot of interest in the hobby. I'm not sure if it's because I put my interest in the hobby on hold or what. They were the ones that tried to maintain the tank. They even did a partial water change on their own! Over the...

    Sick Angel or Just Stressed?

    Yeah I read about the heat treatment for the ich and if it turns out to be ich I'll go that route. I'll test the ammonia tonight, I just don't have much faith that it's an ammonia level issue. Thanks for the replies.

    How aggressive are YoYo Loaches?

    I watched the yoyos for several hours yesterday. Yes they are highly active fish. I did see one actually nip the veil of the large angelfish, but it's not like he was constantly doing it. The hyper activity of being buzzed by the yoyo's is adding to the stress for the angelfish though.

    How aggressive are YoYo Loaches?

    I've had three yoyos for several years. A few months ago, the wife got two smallish angels which ended up dieing within a week. I suspected it was the quality of the tank, stress, or other. We bought a LARGE angelfish, a medium angelfish and a small angelfish over the weekend. It appears that...

    Snail control

    We litterally had thousands of snails in our 55 gallon. Three yo-yos cleaned them out in about 4 days. We never saw them eat a snail either, but hey. That was two years ago at least. They are still with us, eating flake food. I just had to do a tear down of the tank and though we lost two. The...

    Not new but haven't been around for a while

    Hey all, not sure anyone remembers me but I was around a couple years ago. Needed to look up some stuff and came here first. I logged in and got a pop up. What did the pop up say? "We'd like to take the opportunity to wish you a happy belated 40th birth day." Not sure if that made me happy or...

    Another question/advice for you techies!

    I'm surprised a PII can handle XP. Sounds like it would be running slow. I like the recommendation of using it as a file server, if you have a network going at home or you want to set one up. That system would make a fine computer for someone who doesn't currently have one.

    Bad News

    How far away are you going to be moving? Across town? Hundreds of miles?? If it's just across town, I'd move one tank at a time.

    Who am I?

    Hey I was here at much earlier today... where's my message? Oh well. Yes the answer is Mel Blanc. Fight amongst yourselves as to who is up. :) My earlier response related one of the most respectful things I've seen in my life. In 1989 when Mel Blanc died, WB bought the first two pages of all...

    My new eBay semi-career....

    One of the guys I worked with that got laid off last November opened up a storefront to sell items for people on Ebay. He takes care of everything, from the ad to the collecting of money to shipping the item. Just opened up last month and I haven't talked to him since the store opened, so I'm...

    Once again I come to you, my 2nd family for advice

    I was going to suggest a shadow box earlier but wasn't sure if you were crafty. My sister made one for us. She used one of our invitations in it. Very nice touch. Good idea!
