    Walnut tree toxicity I don't have any experience with English walnut trees and fish, but I know that black walnuts release juglone(?), a substance they release to repel other plants. I was unable to grow many varieties of very hardy annuals and perrenials anywhere near the monster. I have even...

    Thanks for the reply. Sad to hear about the doubt of it or something like it returning. I did get screwed a couple of times and heard far worse horror stories. But, I used to always just view it as karmic. I would never send huge amounts of fish to anyone that I didn't know(of). And, in the...

    I have heard conflicting stories about the demise of the North American Fish Breeders Guild. I loved those days of swapping fish with like minded people. I never minded paying big bucks for fish, but to get such great stock at the price of a trade was fantastic. What happened while I got a...

    getting back into it

    Long time, no latin Pelvicachromis, not Pelvichromis, though it does roll off the tongue better. I did read a couple of older posts about Teleogramma brichardi. I kept two pair in a heavily decorated 75 with lots of tetras and debauwi(?) cats and a cory colony. I would have to say that I...

    getting back into it

    I was quite active in the hobby 10 years ago. Back then, I kept a wide range of dwarves and am hoping to try to keep it under control to ease my wife into my madness. I am setting a 75 with an opf. The tank will be heavily aquascaped with wood, ferns and Anubias and (safe)rocks. I have kept all...
