    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    My eyes are cloudy and I have a little finger rot and my wife noticed some spots behind my ears. I think it's a little ich with a bacterial infection

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Today, and yesterday I am kind of sick and I very rarely get sick. But I am not as immune as my fish, I think that is because I have Grand Kids. I think I may have a touch of HLLE or velvet so my wife is giving me fresh water dips and dosing me with Przapro and coppersafe. My pH is 8.4 but my...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    It was almost as bad today with much less ice. But the waves still made it not worth it to get any water. I would have gotten soaked so another 150 miles and no water. :(

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I am going out east near where my new condo is today and I will also try to collect some water here. The last time there was to much ice and the waves would have sunk the Titanic so I wimped out and didn't get any water except where the waves broke over my head. Hopefully it will be calmer. I...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I have not seen that clingfish in quite a while unless he is under the UG filter. I can't see the back of my tank so he could be there somewhere or dried up under the tank which I also can't see much of.

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Someone asked me about Selcon. If you are feeding live things such as worms or the right frozen things like clams, Selcon is not only not needed, but you can't make Selcon stick to wet or frozen foods. It will just wash off as soon as you put it in the water. If you feel you need to use Selcon...

    Wash Your White Worms

    Those Buck Rogers ships had a cigarette in the back that made the smoke. Very high tech for the time.

    Wash Your White Worms

    Blackworms will not multiply in the refrigerator, they are to busy shivering. Even in warmer temps they multiply very slowly. I mean you could feed two small fish maybe but thats about it. Whiteworms multiply very fast and double in a few weeks.

    Wash Your White Worms

    Whatever temp you live in is fine. They like it cool so don't keep in the sun. 70s is fine. I have them in my workshop all year long and I am on Long Island. Keep them rather damp.

    Wash Your White Worms

    It looks OK. I just got the worms but this looks better. You don't need a tank. I keep them in a shallow tupperwear thing with a cover that I put holes in. The worms need to be in the dark. I forgot to say that.

    Wash Your White Worms

    I realize 97% of anyone who is accidentally reading this has no idea what I am talking about. I like to feed my fish live worms and there are basically two types commonly available. Blackworms and whiteworms. Blackworms live in freshwater and you buy them in water in small portions or online...
