Well, the blackout left my tanks in a bit of trouble. Didn't loose any fish, luckily. The only one that seemed alright was "The Honeymoon Suite", where my male "clown" and his little lady have been cohabitating since 7/31. Anyway, focused on the two tanks that had Nitrite spikes from the lack of filtration, and admittedly, one that was in need of a good vacuuming. With the two main tanks corrected, went to go to take care of "The Suite", then life happened, again, go figure, and I couldn't get to it for a while.   (2 comments, 345 words in story) Full Log Entry

Got started on ordering my new tank yesterday. Gave dimensions to two LFS's, one uses Perfecto, the other uses All-Glass. I should have the quotes back in about a week, and the tank itself, hopefully in two. (3 comments, 249 words in story) Full Log Entry

My clown loach is sick!

When I turned on the light in my community tank this morning, I found one of my clown loaches lying in one of the holes in my large lava rock. They do that sometimes, so I just said, "Wake up sleepy head!" and went in to get the brine shrimp I was thawing for Saturday breakfast. (25 comments, 676 words in story) Full Log Entry

My guppy delivered her second litter on the 20th, the day we were leaving on our trip. I noticed that there were a few new fry in the tank and took a closer look. Just then she gave birth to another!! I always find this SO exciting, but this time, I ran for my camera. (5 comments, 118 words in story) Full Log Entry

Decorating for new tank.
By guppygirl from the Diaries department, Section Diaries Posted on Thu Aug 30, 2007 at 07:09:20 AM PST Tags: (all tags)
Yesterday, my two sisters and I went shopping for decorations for my new tank. The tank is not ready yet, but they have been antsy to do their part in contributing towards my birthday present. So with four more eyes that have a flair for decorating "anything", we went out. (337 words in story) Full Log Entry

guppygirl's bent fry dilema
By guppygirl from the Diaries department, Section Diaries Posted on Thu Aug 30, 2007 at 07:09:18 AM PST Tags: (all tags)
Yesterday I realized that two of my fry have bent spines.   They are two weeks old now, so I doubt that they will straighten out. I have a dilema about what to do with them. (6 comments, 194 words in story) Full Log Entry

I'm not good at waiting it seems. The snow hasn't even begun to fall, and I'm looking forward to spring. (171 words in story) Full Log Entry

Swordtail baby!!!

My female neon X. Heleri FINALLY had one baby on 11/19/03!! I'm hoping she has more, she looks like she might. I bumped the temp up a bit, and am keeping my fingers crossed. The title for this entry could also apply to one of the male guppies that were born two months ago. (6 comments, 174 words in story) Full Log Entry
