  • Another Horror Story

    Well, it was nice and exciting while it lasted, but unfortunately, I think I may have just whitnessed the demise of another brood of tiny Chimba fry.

    I came home from work and turned on my lights on all my den tanks. I noticed one of my "older" chimba fry chasing a tiny new guy...."how cool" I thought to myself, and minutes later I see one or the same new guy get sucked up by the dominant male chimba....

    I don't know how many there were, but I haven't seen any more for a while now, I guess it maybe safe to say, easy come, easy go....????

    I took out a fake tree trunk and I added some more holey rock ....maybe that will help?

    Truth is the cement that holds the bricks and stones of a sane and civilized society together. Remove the former and the latter will crumble.

                Dorothy : How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?
                Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
                Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.
