Let's talk tropical fish and aquariums!

Only joking.. Of course, they go crazy over feeding time.

My Beta is the same way. Feeding time is better than watching TV.

Now you lot are getting me very broody ..

I wish I had been quicker when the free lovely fish tank and display unit came along ..

How do you keep your beta, are most of them grown in small separate cell?

I had few of them when I bought aquarium.
I had to get micro pellets for them, but they ended up with white growth on their body after they tear off each others fin, horrible sight.

I keep my Beta in a 10 gal. tank with a albino rainbow shark and a green cat and a spotted cat their the only ones living in the tank, The Beta and the shark don't get along with other fish but do just find a tank mates.

Ich (Ick, or White spot disease,) is usually caused by stress.

Keep an eye out, people give away tanks all the time!!


Beautiful fish, @Fernsdaddy !!

I've got several tanks I'd love to give away, but nobody wants a used tank any more. Had over two dozen at one time, but had to get rid of everything when we built the house. Just have one set up now, with a few guppies (fish, not toes!), but I DO have a 1,500 gallon pond and lots of goldfish,

I have 3 tanks set up right now and a 30 gal waiting to be set up my my basement, I'm going to add a 100gal tank to keep 4 breeding pair of dwarf South American Cicihlid. I'm looking at Ram Cicihlid or Panda Cicihlid. Most of my tanks are used because there cheaper and most are still in great shape.

Ok, finally it blossomed

not so good, it might be first and last flower of the year for this plant, as winter is coming!

Beautiful...... is it a nightbloomer?

 

[MaryMary]

@Rajesh Sethi, that is beautiful!!

Can't believe the speckled feature

It's white with blue streak.
It won IWGS, in 2007.

Beautiful...... is it a nightbloomer?

It's day one, closes before sun set, actually when direct rays stops falling on it.

@Rajesh Sethi, that is beautiful!!

Kind of funny, if you look closely. It's imperfect.

It's 3rd plant (one of the 7), 1st one grew too large, 2nd leaf started to rot, went dormant early, I guess.

This one, 3rd just started to rot. It's kind of small, I could put a ruler or something to get a relative size.



It reminds me of 4 o'clock flower.
