Nice looking rics/yumas. I wish I could keep yumas

My tank is like a death trap for them

Got this yuma in about a year and a half ago. It went to Amy (Tippytoex). Coolest one I have ever gotten ahold of.

Im pretty sure Ive got way to much flow and light for yumas. Atleast thats what Ive been told.

Oh my gosh... Oh my gosh... That is the girlyest yuma EVER!!!! Where do we find this Racer Amy TippytoesX??? because I have to introduce her to a razor, some thread, and a needle...!

JGos- so putting them under a overhang wouldn't work for light and flow? I use MH and Tunzes in that tank, and mine are doing well in the open...

Laurie....you are just TOO funny, sometimes.

Amy is the MASNA Secretary. Tippytoex is her userid on most boards. I think she mostly posts on the Marinedepot board now. Thats where Borneman, Calfo, and company went after they left RC.

Ooo, see now that's even better that she is their sec, cuz I won't have to introduce her to the razor, just talk her into using it! Muahahaha, so here I go down the MarineDepot yellow brick road... Brb... Got to leave some Amy love there.. muahahahaha!

Laurie - I think the overhang would work for the light but not the flow. I really dont have a low flow area. Maybe I could make a low flow area somehow. After seeing some of these beautiful rics and yumas I might just have to try.

jessiesgrrl · Sep 26, 2006

Every once in a while I do this to look for low flow- mix a few drops of green or blue food dye in a cup then, pour it into the middle of the tank. You have to be really quick looking, but it will show you the eddy patterns in your tank, to fix it. I have a friend who uses oats, but that scares the crap out of me for possible decomposition issues...
