1)Dwarf Gouramis are a beautiful add to ANY aquarium. They thrive in highly vegetated tanks. Males are brightly colored, while females tend to be a bit dull in color.
NOTE: Breeding of this species is rather easy if you are patient enough to give them what they need. Plants are a must, as the male Gouramis make their bubble nests in the plants. You can also lower the water levels to 'push' spawning of these beautiful fish.
2)A good shot of my arrowhead in pond.
NOTE: Arrowhead produces stalks of delicate white, 3 petaled flowers above arrow-shaped leaves, from early until late summer reaching 2 feet tall. Plants emerge in spring later than many other marginal plants. Plant in containers lest it spread too aggressively. Needs wet soil or will grow in water up to 6 inches deep. Grow in full sun or in partial shade.
3)Electric Yellow Cichlids(Labidochromis tanganyicae). I have been fascinated with cichlids for a long time.
NOTE: Since they are Malawian cichlids, Electric Yellows are lacustrine fish that live in waters of high pH and hardness. They live between 10 and 40 meters deep. Thus, they are virtually uninfluenced by both water pressure and photosensitivity and will do well in a standard Malawi tank.
4)One of the couple guppies(Poecilia reticulata) I am breeding! These half black guppies are amazing. I love the veil tails as well. Check out the other pics of the all yellow guppies, and look in the future for the all yellows, with a larger black spot on the tails!
NOTE: The hardiest of fish, and one of the easiest to breed, guppies make excellent beginner aquarium fish, and also provide the seasoned enthusiast with many breeding challenges. Colors, fin sizes and even eye colors have made guppies one of the most interesting fish for professional breeders.

Start of new tank project
I am gonna be putting up articles bout every other day or so, on my new tank project. It's actually being built out of an old 15 Gal tank, that sprung a leak. I didn't feel like patching it back up, so I am using the glass panels to make a corner tank. Pics of everything to come as I get it put together!
Here are a couple pics of the start of project!

Other things I'm using to clean and seal glass with.

Mosaic Plant
For those of you that have been keeping posted, I will have Mosaic Plant for sale VERY soon. I just checked my parent plant this morning, and it is starting to shoot off keikis(youth, young - hawaiian), and those should be mature enough in about two, three weeks from today! I will have pics as soon as possible. Also by that time, I should have more Arrowhead, and Ranunculus ready to go, as well as Hyacinth and the Water Lettuce I have.
HAPPY FISHING!!!

New Gouramis
As I mentioned in an earlier article, I got a couple new tanks. I managed to score some beautiful Dwarf Gouramis. I got three female blues, one male blue, and one male red. The red gourami is BEAUTIFUL, and I can't wait to see if I can get him to spawn with one of the blue females. Keep posted. As these young gouramis reach maturity, I will have plenty for sale here in the Big Island, Hawaii! Pics and possible video clips coming soon of these new fish!!!
I also managed to score two half blue fancy guppies today as well. LOOONG veil tails too. An extra bonus to my fish shopping today! I will have pics of these two buggas verrry soon as well!
Don't forget you can now come by and chat with me, and other people interested in aquariums and ponds!
HAPPY FISHING!!!
