    🤣 This. Is so cool! 😍 And congrats on your new wiggly recruits! Also how awesome is it that Purple Guppy entered the competition??! ORD @TeeJay is onto something here. (MTS at its finest!)

    Fortunately @xXInkedPhoenixX they don’t have to eat the cuttlebone or wondershell. The cuttlebone is a slow dissolve (it will float at first) and the wondershell is quicker and provides other minerals besides calcium. I’ve used both and neither changed my pH. I don’t use a whole shell or cuttlebone, just a little chunk at a time.

    Link to baffle, he makes them custom based on your filter and color/style preference. Also takes special requests. Just message him.

    The Repens looks very bright green and happy! Nice work on the spray bar. The drilling looks nice & neat.

    Cleaned my sponge filters and fed everyone some carrots and bloodworms. And superglued some Java fern to rocks and wood.

    How do you set an ink bird? The instructions are confusing, like they were translated. 🤨

    Wow. Fun one last night. I kept finding tanks. The first one I found was of course, neglected. There was all kinds of fish in there plus fiddler crabs, some of the crabs and fish were dead. I was netting out a dead gourami and 2 dead fiddler crabs, then working on a water change and then for some reason I got interrupted and had to go to another room, then found another tank. This next tank was dark and on a wire shelf. I know there were fish in it but the tank was so dirty that I couldn’t tell what kind of fish they were. Then a third tank. So I started to get freaked out about all of the water changes I had to do and a goblin came and he made a deal with me that he would do 2 of the water changes. I wanted to accept the offer because I pushed a button and part of the ceiling came down like an elevator and there was another tank there. But that tank was really cool, it was a cylinder with the Tree of Life in the middle and lots of colorful schooling fish were swimming around it, and crystal clear water. But I didn’t trust the goblin and couldn’t bring myself to make the deal. I thought he had some ulterior motive. He was smiling at me with yellow, pointy teeth and rubbing his hands together. He showed up with 2 5-gallon Home Depot buckets. Meanwhile I found a normal size vase with 20 fancy goldfish in it, and there was a plant in the vase. The vase had a big bulb in the bottom of it (like onion sized) and the water was perfectly clear and all the fish were healthy. It had no aeration or filter. Then I found a roomful of tanks; looked like an abandoned fish store. I found a tank to put the goldfish in, and then I went to the LFS (I couldn’t have just called?) to ask if they would take the goldfish and they said they would. So back home, put all goldfish in a cooler with water, but then I found another goldfish somewhere else, a really huge one(?) and then went back to LFS. Finally, one of the problems solved. Went back to the abandoned fish store lookin’ room and found a discus floating through the air. So i grabbed it with my hands and I put it into a tank, and it was fine. Then I found a tank with several snails in it but the power head was so strong that they were blowing all around the tank tucked in their shells, and I didn’t understand how to access the cord for the powerhead to shut it off. It was like a big box store where you can’t see any wiring, just rows of tanks. I found another tank with 2 baby mystery snail clutches that had already hatched, and again I couldn’t figure out how to access the top of the tanks to ever check for clutches to remove them. It’s like a wall or (canopy?) was above every tank or the top of some tanks were up in the ceiling. Ok that’s all I remember. 🥸 I’m glad I didn’t hire the goblin.

    Measure your tanks in case you see scaping stuff. That way you can make sure it fits. And take a cooler in case you buy plants or critters!

    Casper could be the white snail and Zuul (from Ghostbusters) could be the gold one.
  16. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    Hmm. So there is another thread with @redfish and @flyingcow about Bolivian ram pairs bullying. I wonder what advice they can offer?
  17. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    So then what did we name these 2 snails? 🥸
  18. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    Oh I thought Flotsam and Jetsam were both gold. The gold one has lovely long feelers. Soon I may have mysteries with a white foot! I’m excited! I’m just waiting for temps to drop a little before the shipment.
  19. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    @TeeJaydid you get a white mystery snail or is that just the lighting?
  20. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    Curlyque’s shell looks like it needs a little help. Do you provide a calcium supplement? You could drop a chunk of cuttlebone or wondershell in there to help her shell. I have a snail like Curlyque. Her name is Button.
  21. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    Definitely not LOL I would just feed them with aquascaping tongs and make sure they all get eaten.
  22. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    Bolivian ram, black neons, pristella tetras, mystery snails, nerite snail
  23. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    Congrats!! So these snails are born live with a shell but the ww are born without shell?

    9 yr old prodigy, playing since she was 2. Her parents bought her a mini violin that she could hold easily when she was younger because she expressed interest. Link here to her lesson, look how fast she absorbs what she's told, like put emotion into it, you're going into a dark forest and it's scary, etc.

    Hey @Fish Folk - While we are on the subject. this question came up on another thread yesterday. Would Bolivian Rams eat the friendly neighborhood shrimps? @redfish
