A fishy place for fish folks

08/11/2024

Between work, IFGA show trips, and the Chattanooga area swap meet, I FINALLY got an off day to attend to the much needed tank maintenance in the fishroom! This group of young purple males seems to approve.

07/28/2024

We picked up some nice hardware for the wall in the fishroom at the Deep South Fancy Guppy Associates IFGA show this weekend!

I didn't plan to mop the fishroom today, but sometimes fate has a different plan...especially on water change day!

Another nitrate eating machine added to the tanks today.

06/01/2024

We added another variety of "nitrate eater" to the tanks today. A smaller type of Monstera (Monstera Adansonii) also called Swiss cheese plant.

Our latest batch of bristlenose pleco babies fresh from the cave!

I found this pie chart which illustrates the benefits of breeding and raising freshwater aquarium fish. I made the red, blue, and yellow areas bigger in hopes that you'd see them better.

We're gonna be angelfish grandparents again!

It is always a pleasure doing business with Starjumpers tank! If you are anywhere within a 2 hour drive, it's well worth the trip to see them!

05/03/2024

Celebrating the miracle of birth! Of the hundreds (if not thousands) of guppies that have been born in our tanks, this is the first one I've ever captured in a video.

04/29/2024

The weather must be changing today! So far, both of my Shubel Blue mothers have dropped, one of my Shubel Green mothers had a HUGE drop, and at the moment, 2 of my full red albino mommas are dropping! Baby guppies EV-ER-Y-WHERE! OH! Our bristlenose pleco pair have a clutch of eggs in the cave too!

Albino corys spawning on the glass behind the filter tube.

Some interesting color patterns in some of our "snotgrass" boys.

A bucket full of 4 month old pleco babies! We're transferring them to a larger tank to continue growing big and strong.

04/02/2024

A real nice drop of 1 week old full red albino babies moving to their next stage of development! This has been an extremely prolific line if guppies.

04/01/2024

We strive to feed our guppies a variety of foods both live and prepared to allow their maximum growth potential. Thanks to a local hobbyist friend for the starter culture of microworms! We have 2 cultures up and growing now and the baby guppies LOVE them!

03/24/2024

We got 4 (ultimately 6) 5 gallons up and running on the top shelf of the rack!

03/24/2024

Taking advantage of this nice weather to cut some lids for our 5 gallon tanks! Spring is in the air and we're collecting baby guppies like crazy! It's time to set up the top shelf on the tank rack!

03/18/2024

Moving some of our male teenage swordtail guppies to their final growout tank to get big and strong for next show season!

Happy Birthday baby mystery snails!

03/04/2024

The snail helps to keep the tank clean and the baby pleco helps to keep the snail clean!

03/04/2024

These are still available

Not all of our endeavors end with sunsets and rainbows. We strive to share the good, the bad, and the ugly. This is a 10 gallon tank which I did a deep clean on a week ago. I added about 10 swordtail male guppies there to grow out for next show season. The bioload seems to have crashed the cycle (I didn't change the bio-bead media in the filter in an attempt to avoid this). We lost one of the males which compounded an already bad environment. Luckily, we have plenty of tanks to transfer the boys to while I break this tank completely down to start again. Here's to a fresh start! It's never too late to start over.

When a mommy snail and a daddy snail love each other...

02/23/2024

We're aren't big on aquarium decorations as most of our tanks are bare bottom "utilitarian" tanks for breeding and raising fish. This little bonsai tree was one of the first aquascaping attempts several years ago. We put anubias nana petite on a real wood armature. It has been neglected lately, but hopefully now that it has the proper lighting, it will thrive once again! It's past due for a good trim too. Some progress pics of where it started to where it is today.

Restarting our HB AOC Leopard line with this prize winning female from last season and a few males born late last year.

Some of our "snotgrass" males

Our summer guppy pond has been doing very well so far! We put some of our IFGA Leopards and Greens together this spring to see what that cross might produce. While we hate to see pond season end in the fall (usually mid to late October), we're anxious to see what these kids look like in a tank!

One of our Green mommas decided to start dropping this morning! We moved her to the birthing basket just in time. Her sister is in with her and due to start dropping any time now too.

Some of our 4 month old half black leopard males are shaping up nicely for the next IFGA show season!

This is our bird's favorite jam! She usually does a dance when the beat drops.

We are excited to have a few of our black bar endler trios available! These are almost 4 months old. The males dorsal and caudal fins will continue to grow longer, but these kids are ready to start breeding their own colony!
