Ahhh, if only I could have a money plant in my tanks. Then this expensive hobby would finally pay for itself.

Whenever I need to keep BB fed for any reason I just make a little food package for it. Nylon is your friend. It cost almost nothing and has so many uses. In this situation just take a small square...

It often is... Too late now but for future reference you may want to hold off on medicating until you have a reasonable diagnosis. Especially with shrimp and marbled hatchets and with only one...

Awww crap. I do that one too. We do wash it a lot, but not every use. We have about 20 tanks and only 3 nets. :p

I haven't ever had any merah, but I have had a similar problem with brigs. I didn't loose as many as you have, but I lost 3 of 9 over the corse of a week. No signs of illness, no losses of other...

Haha. Great story man. That's some aquaria Macgyver style right there. Makes me think about those electric catfish. I've heard they can produce a pretty strong jolt. My wife wants one but they kinda...

Yeah, when I do remember to wash my hands I don't use soap. Just Warm water. I would be worried about soap poisoning fish as well.

That's exactly what I meant by "manual" way angel. I have done the exact same thing. Tank water in stomach AND lungs at different times. Lol.

And LH, there have been rare horror stories of people...

120, do you mean it's a bad habit to refill with cold water from the hose? Or did you mean it's a bad habit to not put the water conditioner in until after the untreated water has already filled the...

Yeah they are one of my wife's favorites too. I didn't like them at first, but I have to admit they have grown on me. They just always look like they are drowning. I have never seen a purely aquatic...

C'mon y'all. We all have em. You know, those one or two horrible habits that you know better than to do. Hell maybe you even give others advice about not doing them. But no matter what you try you...

I came back on the forum tonight after a couple weeks of makeup homework and final exam Hell, and spent some time chuckling at a few choice tidbits of goings ons from while I was gone. In the midst...

Damn cors I am sorry. This one just will not ease off for you. That sucks the angel gave up. At least you gave her a fighting chance. I know how that feels to loose them after a long battle. We...

Lol I promise I will. They do get progressively funny looking. :hmm3grin2orange: they are cute small tho.

Mad:
He is going into a koi/shubie pond we are currently building. We didn't get it done before fall got here and I didn't want it to turn into a muddy mess over winter, so I put a hold on...

Just wanted to share pics with you all of our new baby.

This is Eeyore.

Are you on a city water supply? It is just a thought, but this often happens to people when their water supplier has to add a new chemical for one reason or another. Storms, repairs, general...

This can often be mock pre-spawning grooming of the nest. I had a pair that did this often when they were young. I was sure they would spawn soon as they obsessively groomed a rock and cave and never...

+1 to the nerites. Get yourself two nerites and give them a couple days in there. Your glass will be so clean it will look like an optical illusion.

It wouldn't be the first time we have seen a normally quality or trustworthy product that just had a bad batch released tho. I mean I know that it is a long shot, but there is a possibility no? I...

Hey, thanks trill. No I hadn't seen that video of the one in the sound, but I have seen an octopus go through the breeding cycle before. Heartbreaking isn't it? It's crazy to watch the males after...

Yeah I know they are incredibly clever. That's why I refuse to own one. A friend of mine has one and was trying to talk me into getting one, and I would love to have one to care for as they are one...

Hmmmm. I don't know for sure. Someone else will have to weigh in. I don't use conditioner because I am on a super clean private well, but it sure does sound like that is whats happening huh? I...

Yeah it can be a fine line you have to walk between too much and too little. However that said I think it is better that you are on the too much side of the fence than it would be if you were on the...

I'm sure you are using a water conditioner right? What brand? How old is the bottle? Sounds like maybe it isn't working right and you have chlorine or chloramines getting into your tank in low...
