Tank vids

Post by Tinman » Fri Mar 14, 2008 10:15 pm

This is my avatar's domain.

My elusive modesta's, the back half of the top is black glass. This is my dead pool tank. With the light not entering the tank as much as my others it is maybe to hard to see but does show their behavior as a group before a feeding

My Syncrossus helodes are active,they are fattening up well.

This is a flake feeding to make sure all eat well. This tank will have the internal filter cleaned tommorrow so I over feed tonight to insure all have their fill with this flake. I am giving vitamins via the flake. They prefer to eat lots of shrimp and did last night.This is 48 fish in a 4' 55 US gallon and the toughest thing is making sure every last one gets enough food

Really excellent videos, Tinman! The Syncrossus are coming on a treat, and I loved that cheeky Y. modesta that kept coming over and doing the 'flappy flappy' waving with his pectorals. 8)

But where was Chico? I heard no squawking!

Thanks guys :lol: you are to polite.I will try to catch the Syncrossus all hidden,most of the time there are only a few visible if you sneak up or after I have been down there a while 8)
Chico has been traded for Joey my Eclectus, Joey is quiet and able to be part of the family upstairs, I also traded Tinman,my large knife in on that deal so it is very different here now. Tinmans old tank is being modified for more loach enviroment now 8) I prefer the non squaking and the family loves this new bird who is getting better care than I around here :lol:
Heres a link to Joey on a little vid I just did this morn so you can meet him
