Udon, Soba, and the Noodles

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Sorry if I missed it, can you post some info on the "catfish frenzy" ? I like to offer a varied diet. I'm just about out of sinking shrimp pellets and need something to fill that void.
Everyone looks good! How's meatball doing?

I've read on this forum in the past, starting way back with beblondie, about feeding polys catfish once a week to try and prevent bloat and move things through the system. I got a bag of filets at the grocery store in the freezer section. I don't know how much it actually works, but I figure either way it's variety and they love it! It is a little more oily so I rinse it several times and I tend to feed it the night before my WC.

Meatball is doing great! Not picking on anyone (except cherry shrimp which... of course), always saying hi to me, eating well, and cute as hell. :) I love having a puffer - I've always wanted one. I love that these guys are FW, are middle of the road activity wise between lurker and hunter (not a lump like a lurker, but not spazzy like SAPs) don't need a huge tank (like fahaka) and can actually live with some other fish. I don't regret my decision at all.

Love the ropes here, they mirror each other a lot. Very graceful fish.

Look at Macaroni in the background! She's such a pig. She stuffs every bit she can in her face.

Sweet pics! They are going crazy and in a frenzy indeed! Love the pile up pictures. Everybody is looking nice and healthy!

That's cool about the ropes mirroring each other. Had no idea they did that!

Is macaroni yawning or belching? Can't tell ;)

Rope growing longer:) nice mix crew
Yeah, they're about 11 inches now and thicker, which is still skinny but they have more bulk now.

She is gulping food into her face! LOL
 
So pretty! I don't know snakes at all - what kind is it? What's his/her name?

It's a Thayeri King Snake and I don't have a name for her yet. I've looked online a lot at names but just can't decide on one yet.
