This morning around 4:45 as I was getting ready for work, I watched one of my ruby tetras just SAIL effortlessly out of the tiniest opening in the top of the tank and flop around in the kitchen sink. Ridiculous! Not even my shrimp or kuhli have tried to get out of there!

Was wondering if I could get your thoughts on something. My CO2 canister seems to be leaking somewhere because I barely have it going at one bubble per second and almost a quarter of the canister seems to empty itself within 8-9 hours. This has been going on for several days, even though I've had this canister since mid-December. And before I put on that new canister a month ago, I had come home one day to find a half-full canister completely empty. I submerged the entire system last night, including the regulator and bubble counter and all the tubing, and I don't see any leaks. Any idea of how to find out what the problem is?

I want that betta i have never seen one with those colors, but i dont know if it will be a good fit to my tank.

Wasnt this thanknthe one you offered me?

No way. The one I'm going to post for sale soon is the 3 gallon Marineland LED betta tank with the burnt orange and purple betta in it. That's the one I had sent you pics of.

[R_sustaita]

Thank you! I almost sold it in the first few months of having it because it got so frustrating, but I'm glad I held off! :)

This tank is hella fun to watch... lots goin on in there. Maybe by the next meeting in Feb, I'll have some yellow shrimp to give away!

The scape looks well matured, I would love some xmas moss

Ok. Text me and lemme know around when. I can't make it to the GHAC meeting this month cuz I'm working, otherwise I'd just bring it there for you.

[aquabee]

Is this what you woke me up for?

You know I did. Actually, I woke you up to see if you wanted some of that moss from my tank for free, since I'll be trimming it back soon. Now that I see how grouchy you are, I'm reconsidering my offer.

Beautiful nano B!

Many thanks, b!

[aquabee]

awesome start bee!
i love the pics!
what camera are you using?

Thanks Tater. The camera is actually just an old Canon PowerShot SD880is. I tend to use both the aquarium mode and the digital macro. The macro is just awesome for shots of baby shrimp.

Maybe in the future I'll work on some small pieces of driftwood or manzanita for the tank.
