Traded my horned frog

hmm if it grows that big I guess I cant get em. Even if they will fit in a 40breeder. it doesnt matter. I think all animals should be given space even if they are lazy bums. Though I think osmosis water is bad for tanks other than reefs. Because they lack minerals found in fresh water. Which is bad. As for the thread. Yeah we can do that. :P Try feeding them earthworms once in a while. Iam sure theyd love it.

all my animals eat earthworms, lol, except my cat, she eats flies, reverse osmosis isnt too bad for water changes, i definitely wouldnt recommend starting a tank with it, as that mineral base is not there, i use this water as its softer than a neutral ph of 7, the water i get carries a ph of a little over 5, the reason for using this for me is that enviormental factors in my tank allow my ph to raise over time, these fish do best in a ph of 6.5, my tap water is around 7.5, so isnt real suitible for my gulpers, usually within two weeks of time my ph jumps from that nice 6.5 mark to 7.5 and if i miss a water change gets closer to 8, i did use spring water in the past but the neutral ph levels wouldnt bring my ph down to where i need it unless i do somthing like a 50 percent water change every week, the only factors i can think of that do this is the calcium that builds on my filters, everything i keep in my tank is there to help stabalize ph, driftwood, slate, clay,etc, i even keep peat in some of my filter cartridges to keep the water soft, really these fish are like keeping discus with a current, if you ever do decide to keep these and want to keep other fish, the only fish i recommend that is smaller are spotted rapheals, they are hard and spiny, my gulpers try to eat these but wind up just spitting them out, outside of that you will need somthing like a 240g and house them with fish atleast double in size(a 12 inch gulper can and will eat a 20 inch plus arowana) so fish of the slender variety arent good to stock either, i also use this water to mist my frogs, a lot of my gecko keeping friends swear by this as the minerals in tap water are not beneficial to most gecko species, and tap water can actually kill cat geckos if used over a period of time, not sure if any of this applies to frogs outside of the chlorine, flouride, etc in tap water are bad for amphibians, reptiles, etc

I like raphaels look. But not attitude. They hide more than anyt catfish Ived known.
Currently only fish Iam trying to keep are ones that my turtle wont be able to munch on. He already ate a goldfish(large one). Its a painted turtle but figures he still goes for fish. I may try a cichlid. See if the turtle strikes the cichlid will most likely strike back. I dont know yet. Though I still have some common goldfish and one fancy goldfish with it. Theyve grown. The commons are 4-5inches. I may end up giving them away or keep them there. In any case Id take the turtle to the vet first and clean out the tank before anything is added. YOu know to prevent further bacteria(bad kind) and parasites from bothering them. Though they are fine currently.

Anywho gulpers are a favorite but they just dont cut it for me because of the enormous size.
