Haha maybe your right lol, I play a lot of rock.

Possibly he was just looking for attention though

Hehe, cool story JustinPSmith, when I saw my GSP puff, it was really early in the morning. Maybe he was just waking up.

I'm so happy I was just sitting at my computer with my guitar, and I happend to be watching Mickey, my 1" GSP, and he puffed up! I'm sure it was just a practice puff, but I was excited, I've never seen one of my own puffers puff up before. I wish I had a picture. Maybe I'll catch him next time....

Congrats!

Ah yes, a members map would be very cool...I've seen a similar thing: a map of the internet. It would be cool, but a lot of work. Well, at least a good looking one would be a lot of work. Not to mention the need for a filter of some kind to find how many people are in various locations. I kinda doub...

Well, the normal Hydra that I know of are a sign of good water quality, and mine cycled themselves out in a few weeks.

I would try increasing the salinity by a point, if your system is stable enough.

I agree, a toby would have to work really hard to even get a chunk out of it. Espeacially if they are that big.

Neale, have you kept horseshoe crabs before?

I agree with pegregrine on this, he has the exact same thoughts that I do on this topic.

and BTW, Chubby is a very good name for a F8

Well, IMO they will be fine in a 10g, for at least a little while. Mine was aproaching 1.5", and I don't think he would have needed a 15g until he was 2". The sooner they get the bigger tank though, the better. I was actually getting ready to give him a 20g, before he passed away from Para...

If the Horseshoe crab was big enough, I doubt it. But then again, i'm mostly guessing here. You could try it and tell us how it goes

Thats a really nice picture!

Sweet, I might have to look into that.

Thanks guys. I beleive the red-eye is gone from the plainfield VIpets. I was going to buy it too but someone beat me too it. Hehe yeah Greg would have cut me a deal. He sold me my modestus at less then half price as long as I promised never to bring him back :lol: Turns out i'm probably not going to...

Hes gone.... I thought he was doing better, but I walked in to feed him last night and he was dead, lieing on the substrate... :( Lots of worms drilling their way out of him too..... :x Very large worms....It was sickening how large and numerous they were compared to Chubbys body... I will miss and ...

When recovering from some gill issue, my F8 will clamp his gill, making it look "Sealed" off, but you can kinda see the gill opening.
