Loaches Online Forum

Sorry about long time no reply school kicks me in the rear occasionally. The sand is Estes sand I believe its just mixed sand of white and black. I think I mixed it 50/50 however if I had to do it again I would probably do more black with a little white... like a crushed oreo and less like salt and ...

Thanks for the nice comments. My clowns are i'm guessing 7 inches head to tail. That is what my pleco measured last august and they are all about the same size. Ok all but the 2 that I call the Twins they are lots smaller. As far as pictures go thats somewhat luck but also I have the Sony Alpha 100 ...

Haven't posted if forever and here are some pictures and a video I did the other night. I just recently added the new sand (white/black) use to be black only and I wish it still was. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2072/2380587653_b63a1d1f75_b.jpg http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3047/2381433946_dfe31b...

these pictures make me what my rostrata back so I could photograph them also. They were similar to these. Man I miss the cute litte buggers. They unfortunately were the only ones to perish in my move about a month ago.

How big is the fish? Was curious cause at around 3 inches or so my Lecontei or what I think is that, still had light black stripes? Now there aren't visible stripes really. Mine was a contaminant in Helodes. Its very defensive of territory but other wise fine.

Hehe, Yours is great too. Took me forever to get the dang simpsonize me thing to work. Oh well thats me simpsonized!

Haha Pool, I wish. It was a little bit like murder, but I am semi smart when moving as I have done it many times. This was the first time with fish tanks though. Its a college town and we moved here cause I needed to attend the university. So anyway the 1st is when all apartment leases start and the...

Well on the 1st and 2nd of August we moved to a new apartment in a city about an hour away. It went relatively well other than we had some casualties. All casualties were my fault as it was more than likely an acclimation problem. It sucks to lose all my Rostrata, The one Kub and my flying fox. But ...

I agree with Shari that, It looks like a healthy dark clown. I also have one darker clown. He/she has been that way since I adopted him/her. Here is a picture of him/her for you. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/244/452622082_a67366f679.jpg Hey, I just looked at the post to compare pictures and they a...

My loaches will eat MTS for snacks. I tried to use them for the sand and they all were eaten. now I have them in a lil 5 gallon tank and grow em to about 1/4-1/2" and then feed them to my loaches. They do suck them out of the shells somehow and then carry around the shells for awhile after ward. I g...

Great Pictures, someday I might be able to get that good. Hey, I can dream, can't I?

Yea ckk Thats "Baby", he/she was the smallest when I only had 3. I tell them apart by the thickness of their bars/stripes. "Baby" has the thickest, Then "Biggie", and "Medyum" has the smallest. Here is a bad photo of medyum but you can see the bar difference. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/227/51465...

Since I haven't posted any in a while I figured I'd put a couple up. Many more on my flickr account. But I haven't gotten too many good ones lately. Rostrata and Kub http://farm1.static.flickr.com/204/523690659_f165f7f898.jpg Another Rostrata http://farm1.static.flickr.com/212/523669054_2898ee3281.j...

Can fish get Tourette syndrom? I have no idea what this really could be but it sure does remind me of Tourette's

Thanks for the comments everyone I also thought the first one was the best. And he/she is so pretty very vivid colors as compared to the other two. The other two are like the one in the second picture that lighter coloring. I wanted a full body shot of the first one as I really like how its tail is ...
