Once you get over the initial hump of getting things at the right levels, it's a lot of fun to decorate a...

Thanks guys! [emoji4] Giner13, I got my big E guy from my niece. She brought him back from a trip in TN for me from a pet store. We live in KY and she knew I wanted E's (She's a crabber too and got her E's from there on her honeymoon, haha). My other little guys were a lucky find at a pet store sup...

Haven't posted in forever! Things are going well. About to have to put my extra heaters on for the winter. Harder for me to keep heat up in such a tall tank. Kids are good. Usually have 6-10 up at once. It varies a lot and I can't really tell a lot apart because a bunch of my babies have had a big g...

If it's flukers, it's Douglas fir.

I once had to clean a flooded 20 long and that was traumatic enough to make me fix a false bottom!

I have lots of Marimo balls in my fish tanks. They are pretty hardy but they do lose shape if you don't watch and they get squished under decor or stuff. I know you can buy fake ones. Maybe go with that if you want one so there is no chance of them dying.

Once again, the gentle giant, the one and only Frodo has returned! I'm so happy! I gave him a bunch of worm castings to celebrate! http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160708/a18e1bf42d9ac297e263f00c149e38c7.jpg http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160708/45e7402d2f5d0cbfea0b8c04b7859e20.jpg http://upload...

In the second pic it looks to me like the eye on the right is angled up higher and pointing to the right more (speaking of my right not his) like it is pointing a different way ever so slightly. I don't know. Cute however he his!

Thought I would share this picture of Boromir (I think? Haha!) from the other night.

He looks like a crab angel or something watching over the tank! [emoji23]

In TN?? That's where I live lol wonder what pet store it was? Or part of TN lol That is really cool! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It's was neat pigeon forge/Gatlinburg area. I don't know the name. Sorry! According to her it is a shady looking place. She only went back to look for E's. [emoji2...

I think it may be, like oily waste stuff from the hermits? When the water gets dirty and they drag stuff in I think it does something to the water that makes the surface tension higher so the air has a little harder time breaking through the surface so it looks more "sudsy"? Don't trust me on that b...
