Wet Display - 5/24/2006 1:19:02 AM    capsoda Posts: 7510 Joined: 11/15/2005 From: Seminole,Alabama, USA Status: offline I used to rear and sell aquarium fish to the many local pet and department stores{Gayfer's, Grant's, Murphy's and Woolco and a few other long gone department stores} so my wife is putting me to the test. I thought since I am setting up an aquarium I might as well do it right. What da ya think.

RE: Wet Display - 6/3/2006 2:23:56 PM    Mihai   Posts: 276 Joined: 1/3/2006 Status: offline Hey Warren, Nice aquarium.I used to breed fish aswell but the wife got asthma and they had to go. I sold to other fish dealers my surplus, especialy Guppy and Xifo. It's a delight to see them vivipars, "giving birth". I use to keep count to when they are due and move at the right moment the females in another tank with freshish water. In a couple of hours they were making little fish like... rabbits. I even made and sold fish tanks. It seems like I knew that the glass is my passion but I didn't get it right from the first try. Better now then never. _____________________________ Mihai This whole worlds wild at heart and wierd on top (in reply to shadahoochie) Post #: 10

RE: Wet Display - 6/11/2006 2:07:34 PM    CanadianBoy   Posts: 657 Joined: 7/25/2004 Status: offline If you got some big stuff the fish could live inside it.I had a 500 gal tank, in it I had a big old demijohn + I buried stuff in the gravel hopeing the catfish would get into digging, but no luck. I used to bring my fish in from my pond every year, and every year it meant a bigger tank. As luck would have it a heron saved me from going to 800 gals,it took every one.Now I just have frogs, and my cat's really into legs. so it kinda works out. The word WORK seems to be showing up alot. _____________________________ So many Dumps,so little time. So get DIGGING. I've been "DOWN IN THE DUMPS" since 1970. Never dug a dump, I didn't like.

RE: Wet Display - 7/5/2006 6:41:05 PM    Yooper14 Posts: 313 Joined: 4/25/2005 From: Ohio Status: offline Warren, You know, I have some pieces that I think would look REAL good in a fish tank.  I was scouting back behind the old local glass factory, and they have glass slag pieces by the truck-load back there.  They're all colors (well, mostly blues), and with all sorts of angles.  They would really refract the light really nice in a tank, I bet. Let me know if you want some...like I said, I can send you a truck-load Tim Attachment (1) _____________________________ "Hegel was right when he said that we learn from history that man can never learn anything from history." - Shaw Yooper (in reply to CanadianBoy) Post #: 18
