Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

[Katrina71]

Moved where? Within his tank?

We have been expecting this need, so we left a ledge slightly lower and behind where it is now.

I get confused/scared about needing to reduce the size of pvc for return pressure and that kind of stuff.

I just go to Lowes and build what I need right in the isles. LOL

Yep. Today we talked about the PVC. He decided it would be smarter to just use white for that.

What kind of fish is Angus?

He is a blue velvet damsel.

I was just reading what you wrote in WV’s thread, Katrina. I am also watching my elderly Betta as you know. That 6.4 gallon beautiful rimless tank is in my pico dreams often.

We talked at length to a marine biologist about his minimum tank size. The biologist confirmed our thoughts. He had been in the small tank for his primary development months, and it stunted his growth dramatically.

So pretty.

Bond and Goldfinger have a home here forever, but...

So pretty.

Thank you. He is very vivid in person.

I am always correcting um...educating folks about this misconception about “fish only grow as big as their aquarium” Me: “No, if they indeed fail to grow larger it is because the poor environment stunted its growth...not the same thing...” I say it nicely, I swear.

Nobody wanted him because of the reputation damsels have. It was actually a joke at the store. Andrew saw him for months and decided he needed a forever home.

I think the Damsel knows this. His gratitude seems obvious. We all need an Andrew to help us sometimes.

He certainly changed my view of the world.

Clearly no aggression here.

I guess you can see how big the frogspawn is. Lol.

He probably realizes those clowns would team up to take him out.

They all cower to the Goby.

I would too. Goblin even survived the Weirdo attack. Tough fish!

I brought a porcelain crab home once. Put it in the 140 and kept looking for it and just couldn't see him in the tank. So, I assumed he got eaten and someone got a pricey crab dinner and just forgot about him. Then more than a year later, there he was. A little bigger, but just sitting on a rock feeding like he had been there all along. Neat invert, but I hope yours isn't as reclusive.
