I would have no problems selling the young angel’s (or any young fish I happen to breed if he wants them) to the LFS. I think there would be a better market in gourami’s or pleco’s (especially the dwarf pleco’s as they only order the sailfin pleco’s) though, as neither arrive here […]
Had been wanting to get back to this post, and have now found the opportunity. I can see that your LFS’s owner may well be quite profit oriented, going by those prices you mentioned, but then depending upon where his wholesaler is located, part of his prices may reflect the […]
Also just because they are smaller than they’re eventual size most cichlids will grow pretty fast if you keep their tank well cleaned and feed them very well. For instance I’ve had a Severum (which can easily get 10 inches long, not to mention how wide) for almost 3 months now and […]
Thanks Lenny, I will definitely let you know how long he makes it. As far as I can tell he’s healthy, just mad about his tank size, he thumps the other fish with his tail and either eats them or leaves them to die if he doesn’t like them, bad fishy […]
A question on pictus catfish. I’m going to rescue my parent’s pictus catfish out of their (yes I know it’s awful) 20 gallon tank. Good news is that he has only a few tank mates, but the really bad part of it is that he has been in that tank for easily […]
Yeah this is the worst winter I’ve seen since I was a kid, and I dont’ think that one was even that bad. So it’s been easily 15-20 years since we’ve had this much snow, especially all at once. I’m so ready for the rain to come back, at least I can […]
Sounds like I need to move to the ‘dirty’ south as you so put it Lenny We have had intermittent rain in between snow so there’s now ice under snow and more snow is coming down. There is easily 3 1/2 to 4 feet of snow out there, and much more […]

The tubing that comes with the filter is pretty thick, so they probably had the standard tubing that came with it, unless for some reason they wanted even thicker tubing (not sure why someone would). The tubing on the filter is fairly stiff, not made to bend very easily, not sure about […]
How fortunate for you that the fish chose a rock that you can easily view. The parents may have a hard time guarding the eggs effectively with all the other fish I am seeing in the tank. The other fish may successfully raid the eggs and/or the parents may eat them rather than utilize a […]
