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 […]

The only reason I am hesitant to breed anything more than simple guppies is because my LFS (well the owner rather) is rather… umm… profit orientated only, which means for me to sell any of my babies to him I would have to basically beat his wholesalers prices. Not to mention I […]

OK. That’s not a 75W bulb and it’s not a CFL. It’s a regular fluorescent tube. Depending on how long it is will determine the wattage and since you said you have a 40G tank (you never gave us dimensions yet), you could have a 24″ or 36″ long bulb so either 20W […]

With respect to goldfish I think this is over reactive nonsense. Ecology gone awry. It is certainly true that some other species do cause big problems however.
