    Sooo...How was your day?

    In a DO problem you'd lose your largest fish. It would stand to reason that the smallest, least active would survive. They don't need as much oxy as the larger fish or the faster moving fish (higher metabolisms, greater oxy requirement).

    Sooo...How was your day?

    The first fish to die were small ones. Followed by all of the larger fish and some more smaller ones during the day while they were at work. It does sound like a low DO issue, but again the ACJr tells him that things were nice and steady. No spikes, drops, nothing.

    Sooo...How was your day?

    Most tests would show normal results. You might find high phosphates, silicates, copper, ... without showing abnormal PH, Alk, ... readings. Nagel lost a lot of his breeding pairs/fry last summer because of something his neighbor did in their yard. I don't know if it was pesticides, etc. That...

    Sooo...How was your day?

    Brian & Deb, so sorry to hear about the unexplainable losses. Not knowing is the worst part of this hobby. Things that look great today could be dead tomorrow. Having them go en masse like that just sucks. Sorry. Now we all know what to bring to Brian's for his meeting. I'll bring a chromis :D...

    Bill, I fully expected that you'd be doing your best to scare people AWAY from GBs, not leading them to it! :)

    Anyone take pics of things OTHER than their tanks? :)

    My daughter gave us one last year for Christmas. It started blooming at Christmas this year and is STILL in bloom. I'm amazed at how long it is flowering.

    Great stuff found in l/r

    We did a 100% water change the day or so after the rock went in and it hasn't smelled since. *whew* That first day had me scared! I haven't spent any time scrubbing or looking for critters yet. Guess I need to do that one of these days.

    Hey Keith, I tried fixing that URL for ya, but couldn't. The trees were BEAUTIFUL this morning on my way out to drop off the kids. Completely crusted with glistening ice. I wish I had my camera with me (and some extra time). It was just stunning. I know it caused a lot of damage and power...

    I'd like to thank everyone who ran for office this year. We hope to make this a great year for NJRC. I'd also like to thank everyone who voted. Our DAL - C election ran very close with two great candidates. The club would have been just as lucky to have either of them come out on top. We had a...

    I'd be pretty scared of a 5' clam. That would be big enough to swallow my kids!
