Hugs for all!!!!

*sheepish embarassed smile* LinkSys doesn't work when your neighbor moves away...

I got my OWN internet so I'm back to stay! I missed all of you and hope everyone's bichirs are kickin butt and gettin fat and healthy!

Thanks to everyone who emailed me wondering where I was - Much appreciated :) I feel luved!

My sig is going to have to be updated - I got rid of a few things... We downsized to a degree. We had excess Buettekoferi and excess Ornates so I sold a few, and I picked up a baby Albino sen. Also, I lost a beautiful Nigerian Endli... Indy kicked her butt :(.

Fruitbat, my deepest apologies... I bought that baby polli up at the Gallery, and only AFTER they bagged it did they tell me you were interested in it. They also reminded me you're still in the market for a nice male polli to go with your female. Polly would be perfect size, but we're a bit attached to him. I have a smaller fish growing quickly, and if it turns out to be male, I'll grow it big just for you!

Harley the Ansorgii is still doing well. She got very sick about a month ago (Anne... what poly illness is characterized by what looks like molting or shedding of skin??) but MelaFix, salt and patience fixed the problem.

To the people who own those Koliba... are we all experiencing insane growth rates and appetites? Mine was about 13'' in December, and now he's pushing 16'' and he eats about $5.00 in food a day. He's thick like an Endli... I can't keep up with him.

Remember those baby Endlis I bought from Darmali's Dragonfish? The ones that were small enough to perch on the MagFloat 10s? I lost one - he stopped eating and didn't make it. :( The other one is about four inches now - I keep my baby cons in the same tank and he's quite the fat hunter.

I'm up to 9 tanks now - a 1 gal, a 3 gal *my girly tank*, 2 10s, 2 20s, 1 29, n 2 55s. Planning a new 56 for my young endlis (tank dimensions 18x24x24). Large river stones and a small log - hows it sound?? I did an experiment with water changes, and it's true - all you need for gorgeous tanks is frequent water changes, not chemicals and all that. I do a water change and tank cleaning on one tank a day until I do all 9, then take a day off and repeat. If it weren't for the bubbles caused by the filters you'd think the fish were floating in air instead of swimming in water.

I have to get ready for work but I'm off the next two days so I'll try to get some new pics of the tanks and fish. The laps are gettin huge! Once again, I missed ALL of you! :)MFK for life!
 
Well Welcome back!!!!
