I agree, he's not as magnificent looking anymore. :( How can I identify finrot on him, given his color? Seems quite challenging. Sloth is doing wonderfully! Her fins are almost completely grown back and have regained their beautiful coloration, although the blue lines aren't as even. I have the two in a divided (glass divided) tank with some AQ salt and Methylene blue to heal up their fins and let them meet each other. Phantom hates her, but she's pregnant and ready to go! Hoping they don't carry the melano gene...

Sherm is still in QT? Aw, poor guy! Thankfully he has someone as attentive as you taking care of him - I'm still confident he'll make a full recovery and dazzle us all again someday soon!

Oh I most certainly will! It won't be any time in the immediate future, as I have school obligations and have a job in VA, but probably over spring break or somewhere around there I'll be in CA. Will definitely keep you posted!

I figured it was time for an "I miss you, Sakura! We haven't talked in so long! How are you?" post since I haven't been around for a while. Please tell me we have some positive updates on Sherm and that he's fully recovered... I hate hearing about sick fishies.

From what Ofl says you need a 6500K bulb. Plants are weird XD
I read that cabomba can survive in any lighting conditions except darkness if the lighting is consistently the same.. Maybe that's why it works for me XD

If I tell you,you'll laugh! It's one of those cheap tiny Chinese strip lights.. I don't remember the wattage but I remember the shopkeeper telling me it isn't good if I want to keep plants. I had bought it way back so I thought I'd let it burn out before getting another. XD It's just luck lol!
I think wisteria needs 3-5 watts per gallon, how big is the tank? And do you use any fertilisers?

Lol! Zuko's always doing that.. He even poses when I get out the camera.. He scared of fingers though XD
And thanks! My cabomba is growing like crazy! I just trimmed it less than a week ago! My swords are all brown though.. O.o

AHA I thought so. Your avatar is from Sakura Taisen. I have the first manga in the series :P

Lol! I'm glad she isn't an Oscar like big fish.. I'd be missing some fingers XD
She's loving it now, since I gave her live bloodworms and she didn't have to fight off anyone for them XD

Agreed :/.. Darn the soft hearted-ness!
I've put Peaches in her conditioning tank.. She looks like she's looking for someone to beat up -__-

*Glares for being pinched :P*
I don't know.. Sometimes I feel like what if I had tried something else.. Maybe it would have helped? It feels like I took the easy way out and then sometimes it feels like I did the right thing.. Its still not the best feeling :/

Yup, I'm the official fish killer.. -__- I've killed more fish than mosquitoes! X(
