    Native tank stocking?

    You might as well try it; worst case you'll have to split them up. Distinguishing bullhead species isn't too difficult. Yellow bullheads have unpigmented lower barbers. Blacks can be distinguished from browns in that they have an unpigmented crescent at the base of the caudal fin, over the...

    Native tank stocking?

    What kind of bullheads? Bullheads are awesome catfish. But they can be bullies. Pretty much anything alive in the aquarium (fingers included) that touches the barbels will get bitten. Combine this with the fact that sunfish sleep when bullheads are most active. Perhaps if you raise them up...

    Can someone help me to identify the species of Gar here? Thanks.

    Alligator gar are the only gars that I have ever seen snow white, even in pictures. All of the color mutations of gars I have seen online have been more of a golden color than pure white.

    Holy moly! Ebay fishing lures?

    I've never worn out a lure... I think most lures get snagged and lost long before they would have worn out.

    Easy Way to Level off Tank Stand

    I may be wrong, but I have heard that adding that kind of cushioning is only reccommended for frameless aquariums; I thing aquariums with frames need to be set on a solid surface.

    Easy Way to Level off Tank Stand

    My floor has more of a 3/4" difference, and I just used a piece of plywood to make up the difference. Then I used smaller shims in all the open spaces to completely eliminate any wiggling on the lumpy concrete floor. Probably not ideal, but it's not as if the stand is going anywhere.

    Switching Bullhead Aquarium from Sand to Tiles.(Feeding Vid).

    Wow, the mottled color! Mine has some slight mottling, but nothing like that! And I raised several black bullhead babies up from 1.5 inches, and they all displayed varying shades from yellow to jet black, but none of them had that kind of contrast. Is that a locality thing? (Then again, the only...

    My block pond build

    I don't know if this is at all useful for someone attempting to build a pond, but I've been building pools all summer, and some of the techniques could be used to build a pond as well. In addition to the single piece fiberglass variety, there is a type built out of poolkrete and a liner (I knew...

    Switching Bullhead Aquarium from Sand to Tiles.(Feeding Vid).

    My catfish got ich a little while ago from feeder goldfish, so I took the tiles out to medicate more effectively. Anyway, while medicating, I noticed that the detritus problem was completely eliminated, so I just left them out. 40 gallon breeder to answer your question. I'd like to do bigger...

    Best type of Hose for Water Change?

    To say that hauling five-gallon bucket after five-gallon bucket up and down stairs is a ENORMOUS pain in the butt is a MASSIVE understantement. So, to solve this I plan on running a hose from my kitchen sink to the basement. What would be the best hose for this task? Clear vinyl? Corregated...
