good to hear. i hope she spits a reasonable time before the swap so she is good and strong for a move.

Great shots and fish!

That is a very nice looking tank! I'm wanting a 125 real bad, but having to wait for the finances.

one of my female peacocks started being reclusive. then she stopped eating. i gave her a couple of days... no change. i thought she was sick.

i get out the hospital tank, set it up. then i take half the decorations out of my main tank so i can catch her. finally catch her. put her in the hospital tank. blaaaaaam! she spits fry everywhere. they were so small they couldn't even swim and they all had yoke saks as fat as fat can be.

darn it. i was so paranoid after the last bloat outbreak i didn't even stop to think she might be holding. her gills were not puffy.

oh well, i'll know better next time.

You should put some updated photos of this tank on here. I loved the rock that you now have in this tank even better!

[signde]

thanks.

i want to take some new pics as well but i haven't been able to in a while. i've had breeder nets with constant occupants lately which doesn't make for good photos. i'll get some up eventually.

btw - the baby plecos are doing great and have some tankmates now in the form of lithobates fry. thanks again.

[plecoman]

I'm glad your enjoying the pleco's and I'm also looking forward to those pics later.

finally got some new pics of the tank with the new holey rock. not my best pictures, did these in a hurry and didn't set the shutter speed low enough but whatever.
