The fog coming out through the skull was the cherry on top. Great job with this enclosure!

Others have mentioned several problems with this, including that there's always the possibility that the person is innocent, but no one seems to have brought up the fact that it's not good science. There are hundreds, if not thousands or millions of variables that you can't control if you use...

That just means that dogs, cats, lions, monkeys, and elephants aren't human, not that humans aren't animals. You can't describe a living organism, which is also an animal, without describing a human. You can't list out attributes that mammals have, without also describing humans. You can't be a...

That sounds exactly like it's about to shed.

I hope you can see how such a limited diet would be detrimental in the long run, and the fact that lettuce has such low nutrient value compounds the issue even more.

I'm not sure about chuckwallas, but I'm pretty sure most iguanas are almost exclusively herbivorous. Considering the effects of animal protein on green iguanas (liver and kidney disease), I would be very wary of feeding any animal protein to any iguana. You want dark leafy greens. NO LETTUCE...

Well, you're off to a great start. Welcome to MFK.

It would be better in the wet dry, I think. If it's in the under gravel portion, what do you do when the carbon adsorbs its limit? I would think it tedious to have to dig it out, replace the carbon, and rebury the filter.

Don't remember its name but definitely salt. Some kind of goby, I think.

I thought those two were cold water species....

To get a much bigger tank.

When the belly goes back to normal.

We can't take people's kids away from them just because we don't agree with their lifestyles. What if next someone comes along and says that fish keepers can't keep their kids because they will neglect their children in lieu of their fish? Or that large tanks are a hazard? Most people forget...

Gorgeous! I love the picture of the face up close, where you can see the details of the eye, nostril, and heat pits.

I've also never heard of this. I wouldn't risk it.

Well... they are related (pacus to piranhas), although they're not vicious meat eaters.

Great fish! You need more knifefish shots, though. All you see are little bits and pieces.

The bacteria need a source of ammonia. Preferably just ammonia, IMO, but you could use fish if you don't want to buy a jug of ammonia for cycling. The tank is ready when ammonia and nitrite are zero and nitrate is greater than zero. Basically, you're gonna need a test kit. It's a good...

If the stats are ammonia:0, nitrite:0, and nitrate>0, your tank is ready, at that moment and from that moment on until you or something else kills the bacterial colony in the filter.

I wasn't assuming, which is why I added the prefix, "Unless I'm misreading...". But if you know how to cycle a tank... shouldn't you know about test kits? Cycle with liquid ammonia and use liquid tests. Ammonia will rise as you add ammonia. I don't know what kind of bioload snails would place on...
