I think not! :banghead:


Not everybody that enjoys pushing the 'views' counter over 400 is a big mouth like us.

Just keep posting and make sure Scooby gets more show time! :nod:

btw- Neat fish






















:rofl:

It's starting to look like you've become an angel breeder. Make more like Grayson. :)

you have just angels in the one tank? Is that because other fish terrorize them? I have not put my big tank together yet.

The angels get too large for my other tanks. They are all residents of the 5ft and they live in there with 5 pakistani loaches, 2 clown loaches, 2 bristlenose, 3 cories and some shrimp :)

Snapped a few new random pics of the fishies

Sword runner with 2 new plants on it

Next up is Simvar checking out the new furniture for comfortableness

Then last off for this round is Scooby Doo...cause otherwise i'll not hear the end of it from a certain someone ;)













This is Scoobs reaction to me mentioning PantyFanatic *LOL*

Simvar is gorgeous.

Scooby told ME, that last pic was his thought when he saw that Simvar was who got to 'test' the couch. :hair: He said "Ma likes him best" :(

We have a new addition to the Ark :D

Meet Delilah, my new axolotl



The tank is still a bit bare, gotta add some plastic plants, only live plants will be the java fern that is already in there tied to the wood, as axolotls are like bulldozers and like to redecorate *L*

The 5ft tank as it is today.....i removed all the wisteria as it was like a weed and i was tired of having to remove pups every day that were blocking light to other plants. With the wisteria gone, new plants will be added. Dropping into the lfs on Tuesday to see what i can get for it.

You're not fooling me. That's a guppie in there.

*L*...Delilah is sitting under the filter, and they aren't guppies, there gudgeons and in there as feeder fish for Del :)

Some more of Simvar

Simvar is a very pretty kitty! Such a big fluffball.

And I can never get enough of seeing Scooby!

Simvar is beautiful!

Thanks...Simmy is very special to me. And i just adore him (not that i dont love my other critters mind you!)

Now, onto a better pic of the newest additions.........axolotls

Delilah ~ female




Sam ~ female






This one shows their tank

Those are interesting. I have never seen them before.

The so-called Mexican Walking Fish.

AKA retarded salamanders. With the right hormones, they change into full salamanders.

They're a amphibian Lil....and interesting for sure, you can feed them out of your hand once they get used to you.

Changing them with hormones drastically shortens their lifespan, also is not alway successful. While they can change it is not advisable to try to force them to. Some have been documented doing it naturally, but that is extremely rare.

They stay in this larval form all their lives, and are one of the few that breeds in this form. My kids love em, and me too *L*. They are just so different to the norm.

And there are 17 different ways to pronounce "axolotl",



















all of them incorrect.

looks a bit like a mud skipper and a dragon had a baby. who says there's no such thing as evolution?!:D very very cool animal.

aw, simvar is hugging that little lion! cute.

rooby roo's yawn is cute too, he looks like he's yelling for somebody.

ak*se*lot*l?
that was my guess.

Yes, Pat, I'd like to buy a vowel...or three...

Its pronounced Ax-oh-lot-ul

It's pronounced "banned in the Northern Territory". If those little suckers got loose in tropical waterways, it'd give the cane toads something else to eat.

They prefer cold/cool water. If the water gets to warm they tend to get ill, Not really a tropical critter at all, so i dont understand the NT reasoning there

Some new ones of Buddy





And his newly setup tank (still more plants to be added)

Random 5ft tank pics

Pretty. I love the plants. I have tried to take pics of my tank now that I have it all set up and have some fishies. I've started off with plastic plants because I'm growing my real ones from bulbs. So far we have 4 different types of plants growing. I have 4 very bright African Cichlids 1 blue, 1 orange and 2 yellow. I also have 2 red finned sharks. We've had it set up about 3 weeks now and all are doing well. I'm really enjoying having such a large tank.

Definately need pics Lil...sounds great! I'd like to get other types of cichlids one day, but most others, other than the Angels or Rams, are not real heavily planted friendly *L* I'd also need a larger tank, not sure Bilbo would let me have it *L*...i think he believes 10 tanks is enough *LOL*

Planted tanks are just awesome, like a bit of nature in your house

Just watch your red-finned sharks, they tend to be intolerant of their own kind, especially as the reach maturity. I had 3 of them, 1 was bullied to death and the other i rescued and rehomed before the big guy knocked him off. I was so upset too, the 3 of them looked stunning in the tank.

2ft tank updates

This tank has had a major plant reshuffle and haircut! The plants had taken over practically all the space, the were crammed against the front glass *L* I want to put fish in it so the need somewhere to swim, so maintenance was required.

I forgot to get some of it just before the prune, the one below was taken of the 14th

Not a jungle in the above pic really, but take my word for it, it was absolutely feral yesterday when i finally got a chance to fix it up!

Anyway, all the wisteria was removed as it was just taking over everything, some plants were trimmed and the trimmed parts replanted, runners were cut and replanted elsewhere, large sword moed from one side to the other, wood changed slightly.

New plants will be added over the coming weeks, but this is it today




**The pics come out not true to colours due to wood still releasing tannins

Buddy is a cool blue.

Scored a free 3ft x 18" x14" tank today, dont know if its watertight as yet though, will check that once i get some foam and work out where the fork i'm gonna put it. I may sell it on yet, dunno really.

I may have some more VERY VERY exciting news for the Ark tomorrow!!!!!

Well it took a bit longer than i thought for the VERY VERY exciting news *LOL*

BUT :D:D:D

OMG...i'm now sooooo excited.

My girl will be here sometime next week, she is not named as yet, it has to begin with an A, as she is from 'A' litter. The breeder and myself will come up with something i'm sure *L*

A pic from the breeder


More updates to come for sure :D:D

You're getting a bear? :D

*LMAO* yep, she certainly looks like one eh :D:D

She's a cutie, Noah! :thumbs:
