i like that a lot

I remember you to Jimscott! What happened to Bugweed? You know, years ago---- I MAILED him $20.00 for some plants- only to never hear back from him again hahahha

yes!!! i'm so glad to see some people remember!!! and YES- i used to name each and every one of my VFTs!! They were my favourite carnivourous plants. I even met up with Larry, I remember, and we toured a greenhouse where we saw more VFT... We even had INDIAN food that day I remember... Larry...

It's my first time here in 5 years!! I used to be a madly active poster! I wonder how everyone is doing? I wonder if the same people from 5 years ago are still here????

yes, the first time i heard of a betta "sorority", i laughed extremely hard. it is VERY cute. they all interact with each other. they are not like platies or generic community fish, they are very quirky and explore their environments and each other. oh, and i also learned this year "Betta"...

Thank you for the warm responses. I did not know fish like these existed, either. I thought the local Petsmart/Petco bettas were about as pretty as they get. The double-tail is a rare trait but many breeders breed hordes of fish with the trait to get a few babies with the trait, so it's...

This forum section here is dead for a few days, hehehe... so I will post my betta splendens collection up: imported from Thailand via Aquabid.com (i highly recommend Nicebettas, she's SO sweet and likes to give deals to her buyers, her name is Vinita) "milk" "cloud" unnamed- HE'S A...

very beautiful. pleasant. how often do you water? is there drainage at the bottom?

this is an old post, but made me very sad to hear it. it was very awful/gross you had to endure that... i hope you have a flourishing tank of fish now...

what is a dogfaced puffer? i would like to buy a pufferfish too, they are cute. is your salt wateror fresh water? i went to a fish store and they were selling salt water puffers for $35 each or so, but they were large, about 5 inches wide or so. and they had that little pufferfish grin on...

yeah! so luxurious and enchanting. i can't believe you work so much like that and still had time to do that all yourself... maybe you are an engineer- my dad is an engineer and he likes to craft little things together... crazy.. soooo large! 120 gallons... wow... must be a tonof water weight or...

that's neat... today i was about to purchase some pufferfish, the store only had spotted green or somethig like that, and Figure 8.... the Figure 8's were more large ... but i didn't buy my tank yet and i am very new to this, but now know you have to cycle it for a long time... kind of all...
