The lights are out for tonight, but here are some older pics:












I need a higher quality camera, but am unwilling to drop a grand just so I can take fish photos. When I get better fish, I might invest.

Cool

That 3rd picture rocks.

How many fishes are in there?

9

4 Domino Damsels
3 Yellowtailed Blue Damsels
1 Railway Gobie
1 Yellowheaded Sifter Gobie

I had a Mandarin Dragonnet, but the Damsels bullied him too much. He's back at the store waiting for the Damsels to die off.

Heheh, that first pic I can only spot three (?) blue ones.

They hide. If I didn't have so much rockwork I would catch the fuckers and trade them in! They're way too sly for that though.

I wish I still had my SW setup. My dad used to own a pet shop (actually it was more like fish and aquarium/terrarium supplies with some birds and stuff), so we had access to anything. At home we had a tank in every room. And we had a 175 which was the centerpiece of the store. We kept the expensive/cool shit in there. And a lot of smaller tanks.

Since the store closed my dad converted it to a FW setup. BORING. The coolest thing in there is 2 clown loaches.

Most beautiful! Showing the kidlets too!

Nice!

my tank is tooo dirty.

you need some coral, stock that tank!! I made my own Kalkwasser dosing system and protein skimmer for my little 25 gallon saltwater tank. I'm going to set up a 2-3 gallon nano tank soon for the bedroom.

Nice pics.

My 20 gallon has been empty for about a year. I want fish again.

Do *NOT* put a fishtank in your bedroom. I'm serious. It's a Cardinal sin of Feng Shui.

I would have just replied with a "fuck you".

JustErin said:

it almost rhymes with feng shui too!

JerseyKRS said:

Oh, the perfect archetypes

JerseyKRS said:

I have an 8 gallon nano and a couple of freshwater. The big tank is only 5 months old, so not many corals yet. I'm not into losing tons of cash by overstocking too quickly.

Someone who shares my passion thank you!Ill be posting my pics

Very nice tank

1 plecostamus(dont know if I spelled that right)



My daughter's Betta Mellow:

I have a betta that looks just like that in my 55. Whenever I have space in a tank, I like to save a betta from those fucking butter dishes they keep them in.

Mars23 said:

I agree 100%. I saved him from Walmart of all places. I bought another Betta but he died 1 week later sadly.NEVER buy fish from Walmart they dont take care of them properly as I have seen. Anywho, when we got Mellow he( and the one that died) was the only male Bettas that had ANY color in his I call them "torture bowls"

Mellow is now happy and well taken care of in his 1.5 gallon tank. I would rather see bettas in a 1.5 - 5 gallon tank then I would the "torture bowls" at Walmart.

Sorry didnt mean to hijack your thread but I had to vent a bit

I used to have a great 55g setup. I loved my Fire Eels!!!


*not my eel*

RenHoek said:

if I remember correctly , they are SW fish?

toots said:

Yeah Mars has a bitchin' SW setup and I only had FW... is that so wrong! Just sayin' that I love the aquatics too...

RenHoek said:

Nothing wrong with either Ren

I was only asking to verifyif the Eels were SW cuase I could not remember and Im new to the fish stuff. One thing it is costly but worth it to relax and enjoy in the long run IMHO( but peoples opinions are different)

toots said:

Sorry, I was just playin'... Fire Eels are FW but SW tanks are decidedly more vibrant... some day, some day...
