New fishy!!!

[Sicklidae]

Wow, hes really pretty!!!! He kind of reminds me of Aegir a little bit

[vaygirl]

He does kinda look like Aegir. I just went and looked at your pics of him and his tank. Great job! The tank looks so peaceful and he's adorable poking out of the rocks. Hehe. Fish butt.

[Sicklidae]

Haha, yea, he likes to explore everything, hes a cool dude.

Good luck with your gorgeous guy!

Okay, I scrapped the driftwood idea. I forgot that piece has funky white stuff on it and I just don't wanna deal with it. Lol. But I got some columns today. I think it's done! Now where is he!? :P

I'm going to seed his filter with a handful of ceramic rings from my 16 gallon filter once he's here.

Now I wanna give him a greek name to go with his decor.


Diagonal view. I tried to tie the two columns together but it was a no-go. I need silicone I guess. For now they're stacked and leaning in the corner.


A hidey place. For hidin'!


A teeny anubias. It's darling. I stole it from Huey because it gets lost in his tank all the time.

Very pretty! BTW the anubias you sent me is a monster! Its doing so well in Poe's tank. The baby didn't make it :( I think it got sucked into my filter or something because I haven't seen it.

[vaygirl]

That's pretty much why I sent it to you. Lol! It was a travelling anubias. No matter where I put it I'd find it in the filter. This one isn't really a baby, it's one of those dwarf anubias.
Your anubias' parent is still alive and kicking in Tango's tank. I got it at aquariumplants.com I think.

[1fish2fish]

Sorry for taking this off topic but how do you get baby plants from the parent? I'd like to get some more Anubias off my big one.

[vaygirl]

I cut the rhizome in half if I remember right. The really little baby came from a leaf that created it's own root. I just found it in the tank.

[BlueHaven]

He's pretty, and you have a cool aquarium for him! The greenery is very nice. :)
Achilles is a cool greek name that means handsome.
That cat picture is so funny, it reminds me of my cat when she freaks out.

[vaygirl]

I like Achilles. Hmmm. I'll have to run all these past my husband again. I just went out and checked my mailbox (cause my mailman is an IDIOT) just in case. No mail yet!
