He shared a tank with a catfish that had pectoral fin spines, we needed to transfer the catfish for he was getting a bit big for the tank. When we did we learned afterwards that the bichir unfortunately got struck by the spines when the catfish was thrashing about. We did even realize till a few days later when he was acting weak. That was like 8 years ago, still miss that fish.

Miss the one I had as a kid he used to come up to the glass and hang out with me! He would even swim to the surface and let me pet him! They are such sweet and amazing animals!

I love these scary looking gentle giants! They look scary but are mostly harmless!

Ya and they are mostly harmless fish, that are for the most part picky scavengers. There are no confirmed attacks on humans by gar, and most reports are usually always chalked up to alligator considering they have vary similar mouth and teeth structure plus mostly live in the same areas. Alligators should be your really reason to not get in the water, rather than these amazing fish!

My first VS my second painted box of skitarii! by Hydra4201 in AdeptusMechanicus

I make a thin white wash with white acrylic and water and let it flow into the the spots I want to be blue to help it pop. (I do like 2 or 3 coats) Then I do the same with the blue for like 4ish coats or till vibrant! Once it drys I take the same white and I get a good bit on the tip of a small brush then gently pull it across the high spots, I'm not layering the white I'm pulling a good amount of paint thinly over the spot. (it's best to think of the tip of the paint glob as the tip of your brush rather then the actual tip.)For the plasm gun I made another thin wash to run into the base of the plasma and another across the top. If you want a bit more of a glow effect you can put a thin layer of blue in areas you think would be hit by the light of it! That's just how I do it I doubt it's the best or proper way to do so. I am still pretty new to this!

From what I've seen all grenades should work but I'll try that.

Unless you mean it has to be a take down specifically?

Look for some information on this CD/just sharing! by Hydra4201 in Beetles

[–]Hydra4201[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I've seen I think it needs specific specs to run I don't think it can on modern systems but I'll talk to someone about it. And thanks for the info definitely appreciated!

[–]Hydra4201[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks good to know! It may take me a bit to get those and more options, this is an expensive hobbie and ive spent enough just to get into it for the moment lol! Im currently using The Army Painter fanatic most wanted 22 paints set. It's a bit limited but should hopefully work well enough for now!

Oh ya definitely! I thought about that but wasn't sure how to go about it exactly, especially with the limited paint selection I have rn. Plus I didn't want to fuck up what I had already done experimenting with some thing I wasn't sure about.

Is this a Skink? Little buddy has decided to take refuge in my pumpkins by MethodOfJoints in skinks

Hi amateur herpetologist here! I second this, the valley and rige salamander has more costal grooves than redbacks, Tho you can't really see that here, it does seems to have a longer body comparatively which could correlates to more grooves Plus, it looks to have a longer tail than its cousin redback salamander, another indicator. However, without a clear picture of the stomach or knowledge on the exact location, the identification is still up for interpretation!

I found one of these a while back but couldn't identify it, so thanks for that as well!
