My bluestripe pipefish completely grew back his tail that was bitten to just a stump by the much larger Janss Pipefish. I really love these bluestripes and they are probably my favorite fish. I wish I kept records because I don't know how old they are.
They can really suck up new born brine...
Have a great Labor day. Labor Day, not memorial Day. I get mixed up because I am a Geezer and retired. All the holidays blend together as they all feel the same. But when memorial Day comes around, you can remember what I wrote about that. Then I will probably say it is labor Day.
If you...
My town was having a Salute to the Armed Forces and they asked me as a Veteran to come and display my Steam Punk stuff for the event. It was on the beach and very cool. There was also about 50 vintage cars there as well as bands etc.
That's the first time I wore my Dog Tags in almost 50 years...

Thank you EricP. If you can't see the Video. Just stare at that picture and move your monitor back and forth. :D
If you try my system. many people will laugh at you. I can hear them laughing now as it can't possibly work. :rolleyes:
Mark (or is it Shelly?) I would never put any type of food in my tank without "shooting" it in with a baster thing that I make. The worms die in about 8 seconds so I don't want them on my gravel although the fish eat them dead. They normally get eaten as soon as they hit the water as this...
I take whatever I find in the bays in the Sound if I think my fish will eat it. But I keep a natural, immune tank so it doesn't matter what I add from where ever. :D
Mark, here is a link to an article I posted on immunity. A discussion on Immunity
Bacteria from the sea will have no trouble living in cold or warm water. The tide pool where I collect goes from about 35 degrees in the winter to close to 90 in the summer as it gets very shallow at low tide...
The advantages of keeping a natural Reef
We all know that there are many ways to run a tank but I would like to start a thread about keeping a natural reef. The ocean is natural and the fish there are all very healthy and never have to worry about getting sick, getting enough food, getting...
My male pipefish seems to have almost healed his tail. It was down to stumps as the much larger janss pipefish would chase him whenever he came out to do whatever pipefish do. That pair of bluestripe pipefish learned that they have to stay on the other end of the tank so now I have to feed...
I had a blue wrasse that grew too large so I wanted to give him back to the store. I made a small fish hook by heating a small needle and bending it into a hook. I caught him in a few seconds and brought him back.
I wanted a smaller fish so I just told the guy to give me a flasher wrasse. I...
