My wife is great. I see a lot of posts where men have trouble buying things because their wife has other plans, but so far, in 45 or so years, my wife has never said anything about what I spend on the tank or even my collection of Speedo's. :rolleyes: She even bought me many of the fish, pumps...

I am going to take down my worm tank because of the move. I have so many white worms now that I can use them for a while. I will set up the black worms in the new place if I have a reliable source for them. I wil also make another white worm tank as they grow very fast and are easier to take...

OMG something happened that I have not seen in decades. A dead fish inside the tank. I normally find them on the floor. It was the female stripped cardinal. It was hanging, stuck on a thread from a spaghetti worm. How appropriate as I love spaghetti. Yesterday she was eating and spawning...

Thanks. I put glass in the windows and added windshield wipers.

Njtiger, I agree with what you said and my human lifetime was a bad example. All of our fish are on the take and none of them can be successes or make a living on their own, so I was just referring to longevity as a fishes perspective. If a fish can live to 40 and it dies at 10, that isn't a...

When I was stationed in Colorado I thought I was the hottest thing around. (I even had hair) I had this motorcycle and I was cruising out someplace on a deserted stretch of road in the plains and I spot these two beautiful girls in a convertible. (you didn't need helmets in those days) The...

I have been reading through a lot of threads on here and elsewhere and I hear all the time, "I use this or that with great success" or "I fed my moorish Idol bagels and cream cheese with great success". Or I never show my wife what I spend on my tank and have great success. What exactly is...

I liked them. :cool:

The whiteworms seem to live for about 5 days in salt water, just squirt them around the tank and the fish, shrimp and crabs can take their time looking for them. If anyone lives near me I will give you a starter culture for free. Just don't get crazy, I am not giving away Grand marnier or...

Yes, the reason was the house wanted me to buy a new door lock

If I was not home and they went downstairs, they would have been stuck there because from that side, there is no way to open the door without smashing it, and people buying a house frown on that sort of thing.

So one more person was coming to the house today with a real estate broker to see if they want to buy the place. So as I am waiting for them my wife and I are doing last minute straightening out although my house is so clean you could do an appendectomy on my floor. Anyway they were arriving...

I have so many whiteworms I don't know what to do with all of them. They really seem to like grain bread much better than regular whole wheat or rye. I got 1,675,327 worms and thats just the adults. I have twice that many youngsters and I have no idea how many babies. My mandarin thinks he...

My wife thought it needed some windows to see where they were going. I think she was right. I may put some glass in them.

Yesterday we had a house guest overnight. One of my wife's friends that she knows all her life. We also invited 2other people and I made a fantastic meal of stuffed calamari, Cippilini (Italian onions pronounced Choopalines) Grilled eggplant (sliced as thin as potato chips with a garlic balsamic...

:cool::rolleyes::roflmao::biggrin::cool2::smiley:

Speaking of eating, I remember some guys in Viet Nam tried the Beatles, but I passed on that because C Rations were so delicious. :eek: Guys in the Army do all sorts of stupid things. In training for Gas warfare they gave us this really big hypodermic needle that we were supposed to stick in...

Eventually the shoebox may get filled with these very tiny white mites, especially if you forgot to take your shoes out of the box. They are easy to remove because the cool thing about mites is they have this waxy coating so they can't sink. (Thats why you never see them while SCUBA diving)...

I let mine do my taxes last year. I just got out of prison last Tuesday. :confused:

I have been feeding new born brine shrimp, blackworms and white worms to my mandarins for many years and they are all excellent foods. My mandarins get live foods as do all my fish every day which I believe is a big key to this hobby for a number of reasons, but I just want to discuss...
