    Cool Pickup!!!

    my shortnose was always calm and never as skittish and crazy as i'd heard and expected, i guess it just depends on the personality of each individual fish

    Disappointing fish

    Dunno about that, my gars seem quite active, they spend more time swimming about than they do sitting about, although they do occasionally have their lazy times.. I have to agree with the bettas aswell though, they just seem to hover there in 1 space, although the fact most people who keep...

    Any one figgered out the cause or cure for Drop Eye yet?

    I know one person who has always managed to raise his silvers without dropeye. He's been keeping fish for 40 years or so, and is an "old skool" fish keeper, using no medication except salt and no additives such as de-chlor or water conditioner etc.

    our gator seems to have started a habit of grabbing the 2 ID catfish by the head and shaking them about even though they are too big to eat, but he leaves all the other fish in the tank alone. is there a reason for this or has the gar just taken a disliking to these 2 fish for some reason?
