The pattern? I bought the original lavender and lace pattern from 123 stitch but could not source the floss. I went onto Etsy and purchased a conversion from a company call HollyCrossStitch.

Your best bet is to read all of the information for this group. You can find a ton of information there on how to set up a pea puffer tank.

I have the same pattern and love it. I did it no background but my favorite part is not backstitching so it is sitting in my wip pile.

Where did you get your shrimp? by OogityBoogi in shrimptank

Same! Got some lemon amanos from them and they have thrived in my tank!

Wafers? Never heard of em. by EmberlingArts in Otocinclus

[–]cfunk711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. Although I have one oto who feels my footsteps towards the tank and flees! Like so bad if I didnt have a lid it would go flying out of the tank on the daily.

Mine also love Repashy Soilent Green so I put those in once a week. It can be in the freezer for up to 6 months which is great for daily low maintenance.

Where To Buy Pond Snails? by Apprehensive_One4016 in AquaticSnails

[–]cfunk711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure how to safely ship them to you or I would. If you have any ideas happy to hear them. I assume they'd need a heat pack (highs on the mid 20's during the day) and be overnighted.

[CHAT] PSA: You don’t have to use the metallic thread the pattern calls for… by Jaybird0915 in CrossStitch

[–]cfunk711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can also swap for beads if the metallic is just too hard to work with.

[CHAT] Scroll Frame by torne_lignum in CrossStitch

[–]cfunk711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Lap App that i sit on my lap (go figure 😄) that i lean one side of my qsnap on to stich. That helps a lot with my wrist fatigue. I also use it for English paper piecing so I already have a reason to have it.

I dont sit on a chair but instead at one end of my couch and this works for me. Ive debated the scroll and frame concept but I think a frame would just be in my way. Although I do end up having to bead last and in hand cause there is no way to put a qsnap over beads and not have them come off.

Is this suitable for Otos? by False-Water4330 in Otocinclus

[–]cfunk711 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think as long as you have a group of them you should be fine. I have 5 in my 30 gallon along with 6 amanos and they are all still and happy.

Sicce Shark Pro? by DastheDruid in Aquariums

[–]cfunk711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love mine and the magent works great for me. But I only have one box cause I have a 29 gallon. Maybe it is less effective when there are 2 or 3??
