    What did you do with your tank(s) today?

    Just look at our own Fishbox, we used to have a ton of active members years ago... There was also a very large group of cichlid keepers and there would be regular group buys of fish... We have even seen many fish stores go...

    What did you do with your tank(s) today?

    Was commenting to the wife that Ive never had as slow a growing fish as my EBJD... going on about 8 months now and I figure its doubled in size. Seems very healthy, outgoing and starting to even up in coloration a bit but just so little still.

    Guess I joined the cichlid club last night.

    A 40 is a nice (and necessary) upgrade for him. But dont rule out a bigger tank, higher water volume does make a difference in keeping tank parameters stable. The Aquaclear 110’s are great filters for media volume and super easy to clean compared to a canister.

    Stopped by The Glass Box in Port Orchard this afternoon on the way to friends for dinner. Met up with @John58Ford who picked up my L397 pleco. Just the perfect opportunity since I was already on the other side of the bridge. Was good to see you again John and getting a quick in person catch up.

    Ive been to Pet Works in Longview, nice little chain of store with the Olympia store about a Half hour away for me. Thanks for the info, I think we all appreciate that. I had a group of Sterbai but just wouldn’t breed for me but without even trying, I had bristle nosed pleco babies. They were...

Where, or what stores do you take the fish? lol, I know a lot of questions. having had fish spawn on me before its always interesting to hear...

    Yard work...

    Mowed the backyard yesterday before the rain. Had done moss treatments on both front and back yard so now I need to do some thatching to get that dead stuff out, ugh not fun. Got the grill all cleaned up for the season and am supposed to do the test tonight by grilling up some burgers.

    I think Im ready for some tank changes so Im going to list everything I want to rehome and see where to go from there. Basically fish found in my semi aggressive 65B and 46g bowfront are getting changed out. Prices are totally negotiable, just putting something up there to start the process. F2...

    Community catfish

    I like the look of those yo-yo loaches but a bit of confusion online as to the size... they say 3-5", if this is so, a bit too big for a school (3-5 recommended) of these for my 46g tank. Wet Spot has some dwarf chain loaches that are said to get 2.5" which would be a better match up if I have...
