  1. Got the ice cube tray and the repashy, mixed it up (gosh it stinks!), and froze it. Plopped one in and after a few seconds the guppies went insane over it. Really glad I got it.
  2. Thank you all for your replies. I ended up ordering the Repashy from the Co-op (and the silicon ice tube thing from Amazon). I'll let you all know how my gups like it.
  3. Wow, how did I miss that on the Co-op, thank you for pointing that out. Edit. Ordered!
  4. Wow, beautiful betta! Welcome to the forum, you'll enjoy it here!
  5. Welcome! I'm not a facebook fan either. I've been here for a week or so and I've really enjoyed it.
  6. Welcome fellow Canuck! I enjoyed your pictures very much and I hope to see more from you.
  7. Hello C.A.R.E. Givers, So I was watching Michael's Fish Room and he mentioned freezing something called Repashy in a silicone ice cube tray. Have any of you use this with guppies? I was thinking of ordering Repashy Soilent Green and this tray. <Insert Soylent Green joke here> Is this a good Repashy for my guppies? If there is something better, I would love suggestions. Right now I'm feeding them Hikari Tropical Fancy Guppy Fish Food and some Aqueon Fish flake occasionally (mostly for a change of pace). I have a poorly stocked Petsmart near me but no local shops, so I've been using Amazon. I hope posting these links are ok, if not I'd be happy to remove them, they aren't affiliate or anything. Also, if there is a better online vendor, someone supportive of the hobby, please let me know and I'll order from them happily. Also is this Repashy thing overkill for someone like me who is still very much a novice? I've read some about hatching brine shrimp, but I was a little intimidated, and I don't think I have the population (~10 babies and another ~10 adults) yet to warrant it. Thank you for reading this! I hope you all have a good week!
  8. Welcome, you literally described me, right down the time-line of 2 months!
  9. Hi Steve, Welcome! This is a wonderfully friendly place with some incredibly smart & helpful people.
  10. Just re-reading this thread. Brandy, I really like the idea of a rock pile. Thank you.
  11. I hope he is ok, you'll have to keep us updated on him. I have a mystery snail who seems to sleep a lot, my family often jokes "He's dead again", then a couple days later "He's dead again". It's become a running joke. Pakal, a month really? That's amazing!
  12. Hi Arc, from another canuck, welcome!
  13. Hi Toobit67, I'm new here, but welcome. Looking forward to reading more of your posts. I too binged the Co-op videos, still do. There is so much good information.
  14. Hello Mike! I'm new to this forum as well. Just checked out your channel and I think your tank is beautiful. I hope you're feeling well and I look forward to seeing future posts.
  15. CorydorasEthan, thanks! I love snails. 🙂. I'll start looking at your suggestions immediately. Brandy, thank you also. I'll add your suggestions to my research. Kristen, you just blew my mind. I did not know you could use super glue in the tank. Thank you for your info as well! Levi_Aquatics, thank you for your info! I hadn't heard of water sprite. Thank you all sincerely for your suggestions. I appreciate you taking the time to help me and for being so welcoming!
  16. Hi! I'm very new to the hobby (2 months) and I've been learning as much as I can about guppies. I just love the little guys, both the color and their 'spunkiness'. I struggle to keep the 'big chain' fish alive. I've had some success with getting a few fry out of them but often experience the death of pregnant females. I've read that adding more plants will help with cover (using plastic square things right now) and water quality. So I'm putting together my 2nd Aquarium Coop order and was needing a recommendation on a live plant to add. I have a small breeder tank (10g) that I'm using while I wait for my 20L to get up and running. Once it's ready it'll all go in the 20L. The only requirements I have are: Low light friendly. Good for guppy fry. (I have a few Marimo moss balls in there now). Grows well in an Easy Planter. (No substrate in the tank, I don't want to mask my overfeeding mistakes etc. Still learning) Grows well with just Easy Green All-in-One fertilizer. Apologies if this is old hat or newbie stuff. Thank you for reading this and any info would be appreciated. Chris. P.S.: I'm a huge fan of Cory. I was inspired to start from his videos and I really appreciate all he does for the hobby.
