More likely Warren Boof-it.

How long before the cherry shrimp are big enough for the barbi? :bite:



The girl's coming along. (deep foot prints she's walking in) ;)

Thats as big as they get *LOL* You'd need a few for a feed!

Nika isnt Scoob thats for sure. She has learnt one of his habits and when she does it i still expect to turn around and see my old Oobert!!

Noah, are the cherries fresh or salt?

Are they alone in the tank?

They are freshwater.

They reside with some juvie peppermint bristlenose, other than the BN it is just them :D

Great pictures ... tell Nika she's a great model. :thumbs:

With that many shrimp it'll be one hell of a clean tank. My mom and I always kept a couple of small catfish and some ghost shrimp in our tank to help keep it clean.

Ooooh, the shrimp are so cute!

We had a beta about that color once. He's very handsome.

D'Artagnan? No Athos, Porthos, or Aramis?

Thanx :D

They dont play well woth others of their own kind

They do so, but only after they've killed them.

Noah;

yeah, he's pretty, but what has him so excited that he's so pretty ?

Just means you'll have to set up separate homes for all four musketeers.

This is true OF *L*

He is flaring at his reflection, so yep 'cause he's so pretty

Separate homes? - errrrrr nope *L*

I have seen them in bottles, grown too large to come out the neck. A bit like a ship in a bottle.

I came across an old friend in my wanderings through my files.

Cute frog!

More patience than I have.

My current animal interactions are shooting at cane toads with my slug gun.

What's a cane toad and what's a slug gun? Is it like shooting bull frogs with a pellet rifle?

Yes i would say its the same LS :)

Does the habit involve duck feathers? :confused:










:rofl:

Did they move to the RIGHT side of the tank because they know where EVERYTHING should travel? :confused:

:car:









:rofl:

Cane Toads are vermin imported into Australia in a misguided effort to combat some pests in the sugar-cane fields of Queensland. Think of the Simpsons episode where Bart smuggled his pet into Australia and it turned into gazillions.

A slug gun's a .177 in air rifle which shoots hourglass shaped pellets. It is not a BB gun.

Bullfrogs are native (to you) ugly things. Cane toads are toxic monsters.

A pellet rifle shoots .177 hourglass pellets. A bb rifle shoots .177 round copper bbs. Thank you for clearing up the cane toad thing though.

I only know them as 'pellet' guns. I'll have to introduce two younger generations to "SLUG" gun. :)

I love it, i'd have more in a heartbeat if i could only fit them in lol

She would eat feathers and all if she got a duck lol

No they moved out lol or they'd have stayed on the left!

Mwahahaha I was right, i thought you pellets were our slugs. Mark 1 for me!!!

That is a really neat background. What is it made of and how did you do it? :confused:

The background is made of styrofoam (from foam boxes), foam is ripped, cut into basic shape, then melted to get more realistic shapes, its then covered in a render layer, then covered in 2 coloured render (brown) layers, then other coloured cement oxide colours are mixied with water and blended in to make it more real looking. Then it is coated in 4 layers of pond sealer.

It is not exactly as it should have worked out, sealer went slightly white. But it is still inert and i actually dont mind the look.

I will be making some more soon, i'm going to try sealing with epoxy (danged expensive!)

Louise is beautiful ... and so are the pictures! :thumbs:
