Very cool nano tank @John58Ford! That's what I need for my betta.

Thanks for that info @BPSabelhaus, also the reminder about 'fun', so I dont take this too seriously. Im getting pretty high quality pet fish not graded show fish! Yeah Im very interested to see what the "super black" fish I ordered will be like.

A bit of learning... after the fact, lol. I was watching some videos about how these Ranchu are classed and named. The Apache that I got apparently can be very unstable as to color. The black can over time disappear and the fish may turn more orange. So the consensus was to purchase a larger...

I apparently have a female goldfish... Eggs everywhere

Hey guys what is this? Im thinking goldfish eggs?

New Ranchu in the tank, still a bit stressed and color is pretty faded

Met up with @mtuttle02 who picked up my larger Chubby pleco. I kept the smaller one to see what it turns out like. My shipment came in and got it in the tank

Just got this in my email from Coast Gem USA Just in case anyone was interested in purchasing from them.

Today I await the shipment of my Apache Ranchu... and of course the day is dragging, lol. Had started my fish on the Saki-Hikari food and Wow, these are little sticks (baby is only size they make). The fish dont seem that excited about them either. I did end up ordering some Hikari Lionhead...

Hey Mike, I PM'd my number to you. There is not a whole lot of info on these guys but they look very prehistoric when they get bigger. I bought these guys as tank fillers and now Im in the process of restocking tanks a bit differently (You've seen the goldfish posts? lol)

Excitement waiting on fish to arrive. Just one of the new Ranchu goldfish I ordered last week. Always that sense of dread too as to whether you get a dead fish. Most of times Ive had great experiences over the years but on two occasion there were issues. Once package came really late during...

https://www.wafishbox.com/forums/threads/so-i-got-a-chubby-pleco.15811/ Yeah a fairly inexpensive pleco at the beginning but IF it decided to turn yellow, then price goes way up. But the other thing is that once yellow, doesn't mean it always will stay that way. lol

Some light water changes just to get some poo off the substrate, not my big water changes which are weekend projects. Did do a heavy water change on the 65B goldfish tank sinc they are basically in quarantine and a new fish comes tomorrow.

Ive got two chubby pleco. Might consider rehoming one or both. They get quite monstrous looking but not absolutely huge. https://www.planetcatfish.com/common/species.php?species_id=82

An update of sorts... The hard (Impossible) to find DR. BASSLEER 3XL pellet! Just got my Super Cichlids order in and they are great about giving samples too! Jar smaller than expected The pellets are BIG! I threw a couple into the tank with the large cichlids and they immediately ate them...
