Hi all, 

 

I've kind of already introduced myself in a few of the other forums, but wanted to do an official intro. 

Im Nicole, I live in Duncan, British Columbia and I currently have two tanks, a 20 gallon community tank with guppies, white clouds, cardinals, a thread fin ( she lost her friend, hope to get another), an albino bristlenose, a nirite snail and two kuhli loaches, and then my 10 gallon which is my shrimp tank and hosts 30+ rili shrimp, a couple of guppy kids which won't be in there much longer and some nirites. I chose rilis simply because I have access to them for a great price and the colony I get them out of have some neat variations. If I had easy access to others I might add them to the group, but most of the local fish stores charge rediculous prices for very basic shrimp! I just love watching them and seeing all the fun colors and patterns, and watching the little shrimplettes as they grow! 

 

I joined cause I was having a few issues with molts and such, and also just love looking at all your beautiful shrimp! 

 

Anyhoo here are a few pics of my crew.. my guppies are an interesting mix of a long line of super fancy guppies I've had for years that I recently crossed with some pink endlers and some japanese blue swordtails.. gave me some fun results! I find guppies impossible to get good pics of.. they never stop moving so the pics really don't do them any justice

Welcome to the group, Nicole. I love the fish pics... what great colors! BTW, did you wake up to snow this morning too or was it just down south by us? SO not ready for winter yet.

No, definitely no snow up here! Still sunny days in the 20's up here ( 70 F), We don't get much snow around here though. Usually just rain all winter lol

That's right, I was thinking you were more north of us but you're west too... we're just on the east side of the Rockies... SNOW! Should be close to 70 tomorrow tho

Posted

yup, life on the wet coast! Although we did have that crazy drought this year and tons of fires... but that's not the norm!
