  1. Good job catching that before you had any losses! I try to check the temp of the water going in the aquarium before adding it to avoid any issues.
  2. Oh really, that’s crazy! It’s good to know another NERM! Yep, that’s where I got them. They said they were locally bred in outdoor tubs, so I bet they were yours! That sounds like a lot of fun! I’d definitely like to do that sometime! And thanks for the kind words!
  3. Oh really, I’m in Garrett. I play sports in Allegany though, so that’s where I got the fish.
  4. Wow, it really does!! Very cool! I got my purple mosaics on aquabid, and then the others from a pet store here in western Md.
  5. Yesterday I swung by a lfs on my way home from basketball practice and picked up a group of 5 angelfish and a trio of beautiful guppies. I think @Fish Folk has a similar strain. picture time!! and a few of the things in my other aquariums…
  6. Welcome to the forum and hobby! I’m sorry you lost the discus, but it sounds like you’re doing a great job now!! Do you have any pictures to share?
  7. Thank you! I have been thinking about trying a few different species and seeing which one works best for me. Good ideas, thanks!!
  8. I would go with a group of corydoras of your choice, a bristlenose, and a school of guppies or other livebearers. For a show fish I think a dwarf gourami would be a nice addition.
  9. I just found this thread and I will definitely be keeping an eye on what you are doing! Looks very interesting!
  10. It sounds like he has a great personality and some good looks to go with it!! @EVoyager31
  11. I really want to do something like that! I am loking for good emergent plants to help cultivate that look. I have been thinking about pothos and bamboo. Any other ideas?
  12. Idk if I have room for a sofa lol at the moment I have an office chair Now there’s a good idea! I’ll have to see what I can do😂
  13. Update- I got a dehumidifier connected to a temperature controller that will turn it in when the temp in the room falls below 75F. In the summer I can also connect at fan or some other cooling device when the fish room gets too hot. I also purchased some low budget lighting that actually looks pretty good in my opinion. If anyone has ideas for other things I should get or improvements to make it would be much appreciated! Thanks
  14. It’s definitely a viable concern to have. I’ll be interested to see what others have to say!
  15. I always just run mine through the washer. They never come in contact with the water actually inside the aquarium, so it doesn’t really cause a problem for me.
  16. I have had pothos and I want to diversify a bit. Maybe some different leaf shapes?
  17. I am loking for some plants to grow on top of my aquariums with their roots in the water. I'm not super into plants, so the easier the better!
  18. I would definitely just move them now. Leaving them for an extended period of time and then moving them shortly after is likely to cause lots of stress which wouldn't be good for obvios reasons.
  19. I don't think I am going to be super picky about everything that touches the aquarium being south american, but I want the look to be that of a south american river. Thanks for bringing that up! I'm sorry your order was canceled though
  20. I think snails would be an amzing way to demonstrate the same thing without having to put a fish in that situation
  21. Looking good!! Make sure to keep those puppies hot! Ik @Fish Folk has some and knows a lot if you want to check out some of his posts.
