......the sun is out and we're almost to 60deg's....

....I'm airing out the fish room for a bit while I can.....with the dry fall air it's the perfect time to do it too....

Took my 20 adult Angels to the LFS.  Also found out that the wholesaler will likely no longer be buying from me.

......got a different source?....cheaper?....or did you piss 'em off....LOL....

Are they going out of business?

[LizStreithorst]

They're not going out of business, but they are a small family run company.  There's this guy that they've been dealing with for 16 years.

I think that by buying fewer and fewer from me they were letting me down gently, but I didn't get it.  I thought that they'd buy fewer from me but still buy some.  I have 60 smalls ready to go, but they don't want them.  I'll have to do the dread Aquabid thing. 

From now on I'll concentrate on my half blacks because there's a market among fanciers for them and my sunset pearl scales because I think that they are very pretty fish.

Did WC and emptied the 60 gallon plastic container and took it back outside where it belongs.  I also drained the 75 gallon but I can't rebuild the stand it's on until Mrs. Chicken hatches her kids.  That's fine with me...I can do basic carpentry but it's not my favorite thing.

...build another so you can just swap it out....... .....like a fan belt, or hoses, on a car....one goes...change 'em all...

[LizStreithorst]

I don't think so...

[Mugwump]

I don't think so...

..it's just one stand right?...with rotten sections..?.......why not just build another while waiting on da chicks?....

[Mugwump]

..like I said....if parts are rotting, how good is the rest ..?

[LizStreithorst]

I won't know until Mrs. Chickie is done with her hard work and I can turn the stand on it's side and give it a good hard look.  If have to trash it and build a new one I will.  If I do that, I'll throw this one on the burn pile.
