Just set up another aquarium a 20 long. Put in a couple of Hillstream loaches, a couple of Panda Garras and 10 Amano shrimp. Everything seems do be doing well. All the fish stores here are open and what I can't get here I can get on line.

    Awww... kiddie tank. While at the shops take a look in the fish med for yourself. What were they saying folks were buying (I forget the two items) them to cure COVID19.

    Why are there green paint rollers in your fish tank?

    They just look like green paint rollers. They are moss covered tubes for future Plecko's to hide in. But for that matter there are a lot of fish that hide in them when the lights are on.

    I'm not worried about the fish catching Covid 19 as I don't let them out of the house. Yep its a kiddie tank its sitting right next to the 55. Next time Petco has their $1 per gallon sale I'm going pick up another 5 or 10 gallon tank and start raising shrimp. :)

    What was I looking where I saw pleco condo I thought was cool for mbunas or babies? They were modular Lego kind a deal. I think the price gave me a sticker shock. PVC pipes are so much cheaper. I think I'll throw some PVC pipes in the pond to collect hair algae for the cichlids to play and eat.

    Never got in to shrimp. I did buy some glass shrimp and threw them in to a 50 gallon barrel to see if they'll propagate but I got a big ass cattail growing in that now (for like 20 years).  For all I know under the cattail rootball I got 10 generations of glass shrimp? I should go to the local pond and catch a bucket of Daphnias to throw in the 300 gallon horse trough pond of mine.

    I've got some pvc ones in the 38 gallon upstairs that I put grooves in hit them with a couple of coats of matte  acrylic paint and they now look just like tree stumps. The plecos , yoyo loaches and cory cats just love them.
