Sake Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Hey all I see a lot of familiar faces here. I remember this site popping up on TPT a while back, checked it out and meant to sign up but got busy...Then yesterday MABJ asked me if I was here, so here I am! I started out on aquarium advice with MABJ but a Nazi Mod annoyed us to no end, and we both ended up on TPT, figured I'd follow him here also Anyhow guess I ought to tell ya'll a bit about myself...let's see here I'm 6'7" with a 6 pack stomach and 32 inch biceps...Yeah okay no one will believe any of that crap, I'm a short fat white guy lol. I've been in construction my entire life, until I had some medical issues. Doc seemed to think stress was killing me, and told me to find a nice relaxing hobby...Boy did I ever pick the wrong damn hobby! I stress out more about my fish and shrimp than anything else lmao. Anyhow guess I should tell ya bout some of my tanks. Well I've got my newest tank a 20L dwarf puffer tank with RCS, don't expect the RCS to last long but I'm hopeful. I've got my community 55 gallon with tetras, danio, and Assassin snails. Last tank and oldest one is my 29 gallon with PFR, Tangerine Tigers (just got them I've wanted them for sooooooo long!), pest snails, and Chili Rasbora (just got these also). Okay I've yapped enough, it's great being here! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 All those fish can eat shrimp, so make sure you have plenty of hiding spots. Welcome! I'm a short fat white guy too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mosspearl Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Nice to meet you, Sake! I've seen you over on TPT, but I don't think we've ever talked over there. Good to see the group is growing over here. There can never be too many shrimpers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sake Posted November 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 All those fish can eat shrimp, so make sure you have plenty of hiding spots. Welcome! I'm a short fat white guy too! Yeah I'm fully expecting the DP's to devour the shrimp but for now the shrimp are bigger than them. They still eyeball them though lmao full of spunk those DP's. Same goes for the Chili rasbora in with the other shrimp, the shrimp are way too big for them right now but there are plenty of hiding spots in both tanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 Yeah. I hear ya. heh Don't be fooled though. Even rasbora can take down shrimp that's larger than them by "dissecting" them first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkcobra Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 I don't know how I ended up here either. I don't even have shrimp. But considering I usually use my Reebok Step so I can reach the substrate in my 46G, instead of its intended purpose, I see I still have some things in common with a few folks here.
