I've been talking about posting pics of this pleco for a long time but, he finally held still long enough out in the open for me to get some pics of him. My brother bought Ugh for my mother as a birthday present a little over a year ago. He was about an inch and a half long. I took all of my...

When I was in the city (Thunder Bay), their SuperPet was out of live food for my geckos so, I had to call around to all of the LFS' there hoping to find someone who carried lizards as well as fish. I had stopped at a couple of smaller LFS' the previous day and hadn't been impressed by any of...

Oh, by python I mean the system for water changes, not the reptile. Alright, I have five tanks running and a sixth cycling (fishless). I'm getting a little exhausted doing water changes, folks. So, I've decided that the expense of a python will definitely be worth the reduced strain on my...

My son has been begging for a lizard forever. At the end of January, I gave in and he picked out a beautiful albino leopard gecko who is, well, the greatest pet ever. She is quiet and docile, makes no mess whatsoever and is cheap to feed (crickets and mealworms). So anyway... the lady at the...

I tried cichlids once before... 4 of them (the smaller ones - labs I think) in my 20H... lots of plants and hiding places but one killed the other three. I gave the last one to my friend because I didn't want to have just one fish in a tank. Anyway, I will have a cylced 44 bowfront in about a...

Thank you all for your support. Haven't been here much in the past few weeks but, I am starting to feel things again. Being numb certainly had its advantages but, cut me off from life. Gary's death has been ruled an accident. It was a surgical "oops". That's proving to be very difficult...

I feel sorry for the oscars at Walmart (yes, yes, I know, but it's all I have here) and think they are beautiful. Knowing they grow quite large, I thought perhaps I could keep two of them in a 375 with several smaller species of bichirs. They bichirs are #1 on my list (the tank is being made...

So, I had to go to Winnipeg unexpectedly (funeral) and I thought since I get to the city so seldomly, I would take a look at one of the larger box stores for whatever might interest me. I got an XP2 on sale for $160.00!!! I figured by the time I paid shipping, duty and exchange to order it from...

http://www.icm-corp.com/club.htm I know it's a saltwater tank but, it was SO wonderful! The green moray eel was HUGE - 6 feet long I think. And a honeycomb eel and three kinds of puffers, assorted tangs, groupers, damsels, clowns! We were there two and a half hours and I didn't touch a...

Okay, I admit it... I have a severe case of MTS. After a LONG nightshift I have this brainwave (well, it is a good idea and it was well thought out) - I want to start utilizing sand as a substrate because I intend to use it in my dream tank (the 375) and want to actually know what I am doing...

I was thinking about bullheads for a scavenger/catfish for my 375 - to clean up after the bichirs. Does anyone know where they could be purchased in Canada? I did google it a few different ways and 99% of the information out there is about eating them :oops: ! I just want pets!

Alright, the more I read, the more I worry. My husband found a local glass company to make my aquarium (outer measurements, 6x3x3). They'll have to assemble it in my basement since it would never make it through the basement door and down the stairs in one piece. Anyway, they are going to use...

Hello. :lol: I am SO happy to have found a forum with Canadian content! We (my family) started out the usual way -- lots of mistakes -- 10 gallon tank and lots of goldfish for my son after BAD advice from someone who didn't have a clue. A few tank upgrades for the surviving and growing...
