Aren’t you going to be at the NW aquarium swap? Will you be bringing any of the above mentioned tanks to sell?

Thank you, that’s what I figured happened but tbh was freaking out a little. I know most of the B.B. lives in the filter but I guess more of it was on the substrate and plants than I realized. Oh yea... the plants! ‍That’s it! There were a lot of plants in there, which were in turn helping the...

okay, I’ll try to keep this brief, as I know I tend to over explain! I have a 29g that’s been cycled, basically unoccupied, and environmentally balanced for 2 years now. The tank was set up for Irrubesco puffers, but now it’s going to be home to a completely different puffer species...with very...

I am embarrassed to admit: I have never been. If you’re coming to buy, not sell, how do you get in? Do you pay entrance fee than when you find something you like- you just buy it? Or is everything auctioned off?

What!?!? Omg that is amazing!!!!! I would love to see it, and would be honored to have him! I do FW Fish disease, and have all my fish as rehomes. Usually they come to me on their death beds and I get them healthy again, but would lovvve to have a fish that I didn’t writhe in anguish out of fear...

4 years?!?! I don’t think I have that much persistence, I suppose it’s the spoiled American in me! Really? Let me see, what color is your Congo?!?! What are you selling it for $$ wise?

The top picture is a Male, while the 2nd resembles a female Irrubesco, but is actually a C. Lorteti female, which are confused very easily as they look so much alike. These puffers are sexually dimorphic, so the boys and girls look very different. I think both sexes are beautiful... I just...

Well, after stalking mr. Larry for nearly a year... I’m hoping this month will be the one! I have seen them now in SC and MA, as well as U.K. Mexico and France! I’m seeing puffers in my sleep... I have decided that if they don’t come to me this year, I’m going drasticall another direction...

Min tank size 30 gal

I called them today, really cool ladies I talked to. They seem to like the puffers over there too, she said they have never been on the list (she orders any puffs available bc they like them she said ☺️) but would keep a close eye for me. I spoke to Sierra fish and pets, none on the list...

Yes, the nitrogen cycle will help eat the goo. I have spoken to some well versed wood and plant peeps and have been given an answer I like (Mainly bc what's been happening in my tanks reinforces it!) Lol So what I was *told* happens is the wood leaches out sugars and starches (amongst other...

Thank you Vicki! Sad story, but I found a girl on FB yesterday with 3 Irrubescos she was trying to sell in June of last year. I messaged her bc I could not help myself. And... OMG she still had 2!!!! Heart pounding, palms sweating, I beg her to ship anddddd... She's in freakin Newfoundland...

I can't wait to hear what they say. I called twice yesterday and didn't get an answer, sent a message thru Facebook and an email through their website. (Stalker much?)

I knew it was too good, if I had soup I would cry in it, good thing I have a pint or two of ice cream. Ten dollars, good lord! He coulda had 200$ for the two, how did he not see my desperate adds smeared all over the internet. Off to eat my woes away. Still haven't heard back from Olympia. I...

Not to everyone but to me, very! I fell in love the moment I saw it! as I read became obsessed. I am absolutely enchanted with puffers, and the red eyes caught my attention first! Its freshwater, and that's all I keep. It's max size is 2.5", and I have always preferred smaller planted tanks...
