the last one didn't even get started :(

7 fish for $1500? That's more than the usual salt water fish. Just wondering what's so special about them (they look like regular cichlids to me, sorry)?

As for me, I'm out of the hobby (5yrs ago or so). Use to have a 46g salt water tank with soft corals, but it was just too time consuming and a huge money sink. No more pets for me now, I'm raising human beings. :)

If anyone's interested in a 20g plexigass hex tank with metal stand, please pm me.

they're WC and the price was also including shipping + export fee and duty tax etc

the 8 fish costed me 900 bucks. the reset was all handling and etc

theres many types of frontosa, and these are the top three in the frontosa family. called zaires which includes many more kinds such as kapampa and kitumba

That's what I'm working with in my backyard...Got about 8/9 koi in there including a few butterfly.

Just bought a Fluvial Edge aquariaum today. Only 6 gallons but it'll be easy to take care of and I won't have to worry about too much poop maintenance. I'll be setting it up tonight and adding some tiny/small tropical fish over this week.

It's pretty unique and stylish. It has an edgeless design which can be seen clearly from all angels. Makes it look like it's just floating. Same viewing ability from all sides including the top.

^ don't birds or raccoon come and snatch your kois?

those better be some cheap kois, or else.. LOL
are you planning to grow nice kois?
if you are my friends use a steel wire sort of thing to cover the whole pond, its ugly but atleast the few hundred dollar kois lives another day

fuckingn racoons ate all the koi in the pond i used to have lol

I've had this pond for almost 5 years now. That picture was taken I believe in it's 2nd year. My koi cost about $20-$25 each when I got them. The butterfly ones cost a little more obviously. They were about 3"-5" when I bought them and are A LOT bigger now.

I've lost maybe 2 Koi in total since I've had the pond. Biggest predator has been a crane that comes into our yard but our dog usually takes care of him before he gets too close to the pond. We've had possums come in too but we scared them off with wolf urine.

When we built our pond, we had it built so there would be ample hiding spots for the fish. There are tons of crevices and holes and paths for them to hide in so we're safe from most predators.

When we go on vacations, we put a net over it just to be on the safe side.

Here's what it looked like today:

Waiting for my light to arrive as well
6 bulb T5

you?

its a battle you can rarely win

easier to give up lol

since i live in richmond, island pets unlimited for livestock, and PJ's pets for tank supplies and food (cheaper there since it's a general pet store). i always see their tanks in quarantine and a large abundance of dead fish in their tanks though, so i stay away from the livestock there

I'm asking because I have a friend who is REALLY into corals. We actually just pitched in to buy him a bubble tip anemone for his clownfish. I was just asking cause I remember him saying how you can trade frags with other coral owners and such. :fullofwin:

I usually buy fish and plants from King Ed. Same with supplies.

I stay away from Island pets on North Road for live stock. Last 2/3 times I purchased fish they had Ick and infected the rest of my tank.

yes, what does he have?

"Lps: neon candy cane, several morphs of frogspawn and hammer, emerald favia, acans, 10+ types of zoas and palys, couple ricordeas"
