    Food you just can't survive without ( fish food... that is)

    Blending nightcrawlers will create a sticky, slimy goo, that 3M might offer you royalties for, but industrial strength cleaners will be hard pressed to remove from your blender; not that you would ever use that blender for anything ever again. Then the sticky mess does not emulsify well with...

    Paste food pearls: Be bold with the gelatin ( sucks to have things fall apart before you get to watch them tear it apart). Steamed and pureed beets yield a bright red color. Frozen mixed seafood is often cheap and processes like lilfishie says: very well. I avoid salmon because its too fatty...

    Cool, would you mind elaborating. My indoor cultures tend to crash. Dunno if I have magna or pulex, or if it makes a difference. My outdoor container cracked and drained awhile back and I didn't get to it before hubby washed it out and cleaned up all the debris that had the cysts. :shock:

    I am curious if there are fish foods that your shelf, freezer or garage are never without, and why. My list: microworms, artermia cysts ( for either fresh-hatched or decapped eggs), golden pearls and flake from Brine shrimp direct, and homemade seafood-based and vitamin-laced paste food...

    Overall Experience 4 Cost 3 Quality of Fish 4 Variety 5 Service 4 I am going to guess around 150 tanks. Exceptional variety of plants and decent prices. Substrate, rocks and wood in abundance. Lots of CO2 paraphernalia available. The freshwater fish selection is fantastic. Honestly, I don't...

    Brine Shrimp care

    Keep them bubbling ( if you shut off the air they will rapidly use up the O2 and die), but turn off the light, which will slow down their metabolism. They will be fine and your fishies will be happy!

    What is your biggest fear?

    when I am vacuuming gravel or trimming plants... and one hand is resting on the rail of a metal gorilla rack, I will sometimes glance at the strip light cords or the heater cables.. and get a little dose of the heebies.
