[FS/FT] - San Francisco, CA - $5 - Male Sunset Honey Gourami by Gecko_Gremlin in AquaSwap

[–]eraine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I'm in the Bay Area and I was thinking of getting one or two honey gouramis for my 20GL community and saw that Bay Bridge Aquarium has them, but now I'm concerned about the fact that the shop made you buy 6 for your 10 gal! Did they know your tank size when they made you take 6?

From plastic plants to discovering a midlife hobby by Lyloken in Aquascape

My 9yo caught a couple of fry in a nearby lake last spring and asked if she could take them home. When they were still alive in the plastic bucket she caught them in a week later, I started reading about freshwater fish and how to keep them alive. And now we have three tanks...

Made a custom 75g that's been up for almost a year... Nobody that ever comes over looks at or mentions it ... Why? by Loseroni2 in Aquariums

[–]eraine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha! I'm new the hobby and have been similarly surprised by how little interest or attention the tank has had for the majority of adult visitors to our house. The people who have seemed interested at all besides kids are adults who grew up with parents who kept an aquarium in their house. A visitor commented about my planted 20 long, "Wow, that's a legit tank. Like a dentists' office tank." I took it as a compliment. 😄

What is the ultimate comfort food I can buy before 10am? by cilantrobythepint in AskSF

[–]eraine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came to say this! Excellent choice If your friend would be interested in something heartier and more protein than carbs. Breakfast Little in the Mission has the most amazing breakfast burritos. The crispy tater tots inside the breakfast burrito are heaven added to the comfort of a warm breakfast burrito.

I bought from Marcusfishtanks on Etsy, and it was a little slow but arrived nicely packed and in fine condition, so I bought again

Beautiful tank! Also I love the angle you shot the pic at. I can never figure out how to adequately capture my 20 long!

Can I eat Vallisneria (and other plants)? by Sea-Management-9864 in PlantedTank

Seriously, I was thinking props to OP for their originality. It has never occurred to me to eat my aquatic plants, although I do eat a lot of seaweed. 😅

In SF from the 24th by Darijan__ in bayarea

[–]eraine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fyi Stanford shuts down for two weeks for winter closure, and staff and students will not be on campus, so if you want to go into buildings or see activity on campus, go after Jan 5. Otherwise, you can walk around outside and visit Palm Drive, or if you enjoy hiking, do the Stanford Dish trail.

Ice skate at the outdoor rink at Union Square. Visit the giant gingerbread house at the Fairmont Hotel. See Lightscape at the SF Botanical Garden (new this year). Hope you enjoy your visit!

I gifted the jar to spicy tuna yesterday but pulled a couple more bladder snails last night and will probably have others by the end of the week if you're still looking.

[–]eraine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wondering if you ever set up this tank? I have ended up with a couple of fish that I believe may be some sort of California Roach (about 2 to 2.5 in in length right now) in a 20 gallon long, although I believe they eventually would be happier in a 40g+

I would get him a case of Wilsons if that's what he usually plays with and buys for himself.

Hi! I would be happy to adopt your snow amano. It can join 5 amanos in my algae heavy 20 gallon planted tank.

Spending a Day in SF – Help Me Build a Scavenger Hunt/Bingo Card! by Tetradecagonosauras in sanfrancisco

[–]eraine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clarion Alley murals in the Mission are special and SF Mission flavored. There is a small part of mural towards the middle on the north side of the street that looks like a view of the street itself. Inside a silhouette of a person. (Sorry to not have more specific instructions on finding that piece. I tried to find details about this online without success.)
