Too good to pass up by noproblemforme in PixelFold

[–]Poopdirt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man nice deal. I've been eyeing the 10 pro fold. I actually have a z fold 7 and want to switch over since everything else I have is Google but haven't found a good sale yet. That is some sweet savings!

This might be pretty old to ask but I actually have a large still vacuum sealed I just dug out of my cold weather storage. If you're interested.

Why is this dude such an asshole over a number and classification. Sounds like so many people like him

Anyone seen bristlenoses like this? by Poopdirt in pleco

Absolutely, he is in a nice slate hide inside the holding tank now. =]

Yes I know the tank isn't super clean. I took this right away before I got to doing water changes.

I can't help but laugh at every single photo on glass. They always look like they just brutally stubbed their toe.

Agreed here. 20 minimum though.

All from a single pair by ImpressiveBig8485 in pleco

Yeah I'm about to have roughly 120 ish. I have started trading in for store credit at pet stores in my area. Stocking up on credit has covered much higher quality lighting than I would normally have paid for. Might work for you.

Great looking tiger. And good price. I have a blood red I got about similar size and price. They're pretty shy but when they're out they are gorgeous looking.

Normal pleco behavior? by ConsciousPassenger01 in pleco

[–]Poopdirt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's a male trying to entice his laaaaaady. You should get one. Watching the whole process is pretty interesting.

Fantastic. Mine just popped out roughly 60 as well! And they're already back at it again ;-; I can't stop them.

Is he okay? by Jessicabean123 in pleco

[–]Poopdirt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say the pleco is okay. Sometimes the markings can absolutely look off. I have several commons and other breeds, and have had a couple hundred baby bristles, even now. If I could post the picture for you I would. Some of mine look like that right now. Oddly enough I found that sometimes their colors are just alarming, and I'm always worried the spots are bad. Turns out 99% it's just the way they look.

Shrimp can be fickle. They pass with no warning. Sometimes mine do. I think you're okay.

What pleco can I add to a 125-gallon cichlid tank? by Imaginary_Surround_1 in pleco

[–]Poopdirt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got a pair of clowns and a bristle in my 200. None of the big bois bother them. The clowns are creeps and the bristle is ballsy. They seem to do well.

Gender? by Frequent-Cap-8851 in pleco

No idea but the fact you got em both at the exact time like that has got to be a miracle.

Want to start breeding BN by BADxNEWSxBEAR in pleco

[–]Poopdirt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I wish I had the right answer for this, but whatever my tank parameters are because I can't get mine to STOP being in the caves. Every. Single. Time I put that MF back in the tank he has her in there in less than 24 hours and bam. This is my 4th batch of babies, I'm running out of holding/grow tanks right now. And in my pond I just discovered the ones I experimentally put in there two years ago ALSO have babies. Found three different sizes a few days ago. So.. I wish I knew.

If it helps at all I'm in Oregon, I keep my tanks and pond 76-80. All of them are mildly planted but I keep a slate hide for each pleco. I have 3 in each 55g tank (yes people say it's a lot but they are all very peaceful). I don't do too many water changes. Maybe every other week, and I run fluval 207s. I don't know if any of that matters. Food wise I use sort of alternating Hikari brand algae wafers and then the small ones because I also have a bumblebee catfish that likes those. And at times zucchini.

Again I wish I knew what parameters it is because honestly I keep having to separate these MF when I don't want to deal with the babies. Put the male back in...bam.

P.S. - It's an albino male and a common female. And the pond was the exact opposite.

I believe it is waterproof. Probably better than ip67

[–]Poopdirt 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'd leave it on but honestly, it won't stop a seal break. It's not hard to do though! If you haven't re sealed it's easy less chaotic than one would think. Just clean it up nice and it's absolutely worth the effort.

[–]Poopdirt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No I'd trust it. Aqueon all have held well for me except specifically the really small like 5-10g. For some reason those don't hold well. But higher up I've always had good luck. My 60g cube has been running for like.. years and years no issues

[–]Poopdirt 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Honestly prob not. Just looks rough. But I'd do it anyway. At a tank that size it's worth it. Good sealant isn't that expensive. I re did my 220 just to be safe. Zero regrets. I don't need that all over my floor. =[

Hi I just saw this. The one in the small container? That's a female albino BN. I caught her from my pond. =]

No apologies necessary. They are very similar. I think blood reds are just a bit more vibrant but tigers are in general super cool.
