  1. They are overnighted from California to Texas. Expected delivery before 12 pm???? "LOL"
  2. After acclimation guppies and fish are in the tank how soon should they be fed? Should first feeding be a light one or more regular one with maybe brine Shrimp. TIA
  3. Thanks, I did not know that, I have found out that a Mystery Snail can bury itself
  4. That is a idea but about 2 weeks ago I got 2 Gold Mystery Snails and they seem to have brought 4 babies with them too.
  5. I received 9 new plants 3 days ago and got them planted. So far I have found 16 hitchhiker from them and I have them hard at work on part of the tank I cant reach, more bang for my buck 🙂
  6. I have my Fluval 3 light going on the factory setting except I extended the day time hours to run 7am to 7pm hoping to give the new plants a little jump start. I give them the basic dose of fertilizer about every 4 days for all the new plants.
  7. Thanks, these 2 were planted July 1st, if there is something wrong I need to take care of it and I planted 4 more on the 21st.
  8. It looks like I have a problem with my Pogostemon Stellatus 'Octopus'. One plant it looks like the bottom side of the leaves are turning a off white color and the bottom of one has black spots on it. Any ideas?
  9. Yep, this is why i got those 4 tanks a couple of weeks ago and I have 7 male guppies in my 80 right now using to as a learning tool.
  10. I am going to follow this very close because this is what I am setting up to do too 😊
  11. I received the 2 gold mystery snails that I ordered and when I unwrapped them they were attached to a green fuzzy material so I put it in the water and moved it back and forth to get them off. I thought all was good but the next day I found a 3rd gold mystery snail not much bigger than a BB that snuck in and came along for the ride. I feel good about it 🙂
  12. I am beginning to find that out, one time I watch them they are just barley moving along and then they will scoot right along to get to a new spot to eat
  13. The other little rascal finally showed up, maybe I need to name them Hou and Dini. 😃
  14. Thanks, I walked back in there and one showed up in the center front of the substrate. I cant figure out where it might have been, still looking for the 2nd one. there is a 3rd one but it is a baby not much bigger than a BB "LOL"
  15. Yes I have lids on both sides and largest gap around the HOB's is maybe .25" and they are wider than that.
  16. I put 2 Mystery Snails in my 80 gallon yesterday, they are a bright yellow or gold color about the size of a quarter. Today they are nowhere in sight, my plants are not that thick and I have looked over and under the decorations in the tank. I opened the HOB filter and did not find them there either. So any idea how they can hide, do they bury them self in the substrate??
  17. I added some new roomies, (9) guppies, (6) amano's, (2) Gold mystery snails plus a young hitchhicker
  18. I picked up 3 of these little guys today. The are hard to find on my substrate as they blend in pretty good.
  19. What does the blues spectrum do to a aquarium? like letting the blue on all night.
  20. There are times when they hook a water line up to a gas line and the water pressure can hold the gas back so they can weld on the gas line.
  21. Sorry about the name Odd Duck. I may just take a drive out there, they are on the east side of Dallas in Royse City.
  22. Like Old Duck I am from Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. I have a 80 gallon tank I am converting to a planted tank if I can get my Nitrates down. Currently I have one Clown Loach but he will have to go as I am planning on going with Fancy Guppies in that tanks. I did pick up (4) 10 gallon tanks, one for a QT and the other 3 for breeding guppies. Yes but I just started my plants 4 days ago, it looks like 3 will make it ok so I will probably order some more next week
