Day 190

Got a call from Shane, wants to donate fish on Sat.(Oscar,Pleco,Red Devil-Jaguar fry). Post pictures after Sat. Rob coming by tomorrow, going to build 140gal.

Day 189

Lima Shovelnose ran into side of tank(380 gal.) and broke nose...and he's not eating.

I have lots of heaters, 18 running. In this time, energy is on everyone's mind, saving energy that is. I keep all my heaters at 80*, I thought. I'm going to try to keep the tanks at average 75*, and see if I can decrease my kW/day usage. I have to factor in outside temperature and my setting up and taking down tanks. I am aware my fish will be less active and eat less. Here is a current list of tank temps.

Day 185

5" Flagtail for sale in Warren, $15. Sent a private message yesterday on http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/ , no response yet. Turned all tanks from 80* to 78*, all else good.

Day 184

These are Rob's fish, tank#19. Picture #2 shows the damaged eye from fight. Medicating, on the third day, four to go.

Day 182 continued

Ok, went to Rob's picked up 90 gal. Borrowed AC110 & AC70 filters, a light, heater, divider, medicine(fish were damaged in a fight). ,glass tops, and gravel. Set it up, no problems. This will be tank#19, Tank#20 will now be Piranha tank, and #21 will be Flowerhorn tank. the fish I'm holding for Rob are a Vieja Synspilum and two Red Tiger Motaguense. He had a Silver Dollar which I put in tank#8, and an Upsidedown Catfish that went in 380 gal.

Day 182

Cleaned tanks#2-#5 today, 25% water change, vacuum gravel, and filter cleanings. Set up tank#1, 29 gal.,with sponge filter, transfered Goldfish from tank#3. Tank#3 will be used to house a fish, not sure which one. Might go to Rob's tonight to pick up 90 gal. and fish.

Day 180

Cleaned tanks#6-#12 today with 25% water change, gravel vacuum, and filter changes(rinse). Went to Something Fishy Pet store in Clio,MI., wide selection of fresh and salt water fish and supplies.

Day 178

These are the fish I'm holding for Rob, Texas and Thia Flowerhorn. These are in tank#7. Went to his house today and moved 75 and 90 gal. upstairs, borrowed a heater, filter-AC70, and divider. Going Monday to get 90 gal. with assortment of fish.

Day 177

Per your request these are the pictures of new and old residents of the 380gal., taken today 4 pm.

Day 175 cont'

Tank #13(380gal.) vacuumed gravel and 25% water change. Moved Angels, Discus, lrg. Grourami, Algae eater and Bala Shark from tank#5 to tropical tank#8, moved Electric Yellow Lab from tank#5 to tank#12, and Lace Catfish, Pitcus cat from tank#5 and small Oscar from tank#16 to 380gal. This was all done so large Oscar in tank#18 could be moved to tank#5, and divider lifted in tank#18 for Flowerhorn alone.

Day 175

It pains me to inform you that Oscar in tank#6 was mortally wounded day after Christmas. This Oscar, I got from Nic, broke down divider and got on the Red Devil side of tank. Oscar died 3 days after injured, R.I.P. I still struggle with the death of a fish that I cared for. This hobby is a learning experience, still, after 30 years. So I move on, and make my hobby better from my failures...I moved the two small Parrots and African Leaf fish from tank#5 to the 380gal., no problems. Tanks#14-#20 were cleaned over the holiday, filter changes, cleanings and 25% water changes. The new filter pump for the 380gal. is ready to be swapped in, maybe Wed. night? Rob is moving some tanks on Thur., going over there to help out. I might hold a tank and some fish for him. More tomorrow, keep the hobby strong and don't let your failures stray you from this great fish keeping(collecting) experience!
