I may do that - will have to think it over though as I am not sure how it will react with my other fish. I have a handful of tiger barbs and a pink convict male that is 7-8 years old...wouldn't want to see a turf war or new fish eating old fish :( How old is the one you gave Gerwin? Is it male or fe...

My convict (Stripey) has been moping around the past two days, sitting on the bottom, and occasionally laying down on his side. He does not get up and run around the tank and even skips out on dinner, only getting up when Pinky comes over and bumps him (almost as if he is saying get up and eat!) The...

I am there with a little notice and as long as I don't have to man the grill

How do you know if you have ick?
Pictures? (newbie here - never seen it)

Very nice. One day I will grow up and get a reef tank...one day..

Gerwin: If you had more room for them, it would be cool. Steve: Your tank is looking good. Doug: I was actually just thinking about that the other day but I was not 100% sure if that was the case so I just kind of let it go and passed it off as I may be getting old, lol. Glad to see that it wasn't j...

Hell, why don't ya just call them Squirbles and really throw everyone for a loop.
If you are going for change, might as well make it fun

OIC...Sorry - just had a hard time following that one for some reason, lol

Buffer the ph, huh? I just liked the looks of it, lol

Okay, the only new photo contains some new items I purchased this evening and put up (right side reef looking things and plastic plants. Now I am good for a bit. I do need to replace that God-awful rock with some crushed coral or something though... See pics on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/albu...

Nice..
I have the same piece in my tank that you have on the right of yours...just bought a few more pieces tonight.

I like the ship coming out of the top of the tank - that is pretty creative.

Umm..I am not sure what opinion 1 was, lol - You think he is sick?

Yes it is

I may be wrong, but I do not think that is the case because: 1. The tank is the same setup that he has been living in for years (albeit much cleaner) and the settings on the waterfall thing are the same 2. I just added a reef looking thing for him to hide behind which has bubbles (I bought a bubbler...

One of my convicts is acting real weird over the past few minutes... He is swimming really fast, then splashing at the top of the tank, then swims back to the bottom and mellows out. He has done this 3-4 times now in the past 15 minutes... Keep in mind this fish is about 7(ish) years old and typical...
