That's so concise CD. Be a good one for a fish tank. Can I use that? :whistle:

Absolutely Rick - anytime you like - maybe stick it on the rear-end of each fish !

They're great - maybe you should go into business with JT :lol:

On Juneteenth of the Year Ten
A couple dozen fiddlers, averaging 5-6 inches, made the 50-mile trip home to Smin Studios.
There was a stowaway, I'm guessing a Bluegill.
They are getting along fine with the goldfish - I even see a few cats swimming formations with the golds!
They really really don't like when the pump comes on.
I can now use the Smiley...
:getfish:...and that's exactly how I dance too!

Yea, I've found that my catfish are scardy cats. Opening the lid on the tank when the fish are near the surface is a good way to get splashed in the face when they dive for cover.

Here are a couple of angles I am thinking of putting in the "Usual set of Foliage Shots so as to Show What's Going On" :lol:
I have started blogging in the Gardening section of our daily paper. A picture is worth ten thousand words (don't know exactly when that currency got devalued but oh well).

This is the whole Growbed 1 but facing the fence.

Oh yeah.
Mandatory blurry, glare-challenged photos of shadowy fish shapes!
(Thinking if I provide enough whiskers I will be forgiven for the lack of toes)

It's not an obscure local Bait Stand Festival.
It's Slab Sale Day at Danbury Fish Farm. Monthly open-house where we not-so-big customers get a chance to stock our ponds too.
Very nice folks selling very happy fish. I and the Saturn will be back for more.

Tested water that returns from the GB.
Ammonia 0
Nitrites 0
Nitrates 0.5
This is via dipstick test at the pet store, it's "mg per ml" but I like zeroes on those two.
Still have 24 channel cats at average 6 inches, plus the dozen hungry hungry goldies.
Water has been low in the FT so I wanted to assure myself.
pH is "high 7s to low 8" - gonna put a Real Test Kit on my birthday wish list...

Growth shots! Should be coming up on the 4-to-6-week growth surge.
