I took these a week ago and then proceeded to leave my camera in my dad's car. I know these pics kinda suck, but these little beasties won't hold still long enough for a decent shot. These are the only 4 I have that aren't ruined by motion blur.

Anyway, this is Leto, AKA The Tyrant, AKA Skunkus.

They can't see me back here!

Sup.

Oh, man. Does anyone remember what I did last night?!

And here's Leto and one of his sisters, Skeezix (she's at the bottom right of the chair, and it's too bad you can't see it in this pic, but she has even more of a "dude, where's my car" expression than Leto does).

Here's a short clip of the little turds playing:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYXWMn_IFh0

Ferrets are fun. Just have to keep their cage clean, bedding washed and give them a bath every other week. Otherwise they start to odorfy the house.

Here is a few of Sugar Pea



^^Here is my old 10 gallon fresh water aquarium.



^^Here is my 20 gallon before I added real rocks in.

^^Here is when my Mollies were having babies Look in the floating breeder.

^^ Those little guys are Black Tetras. I like Neon Tera's better, I had a school of 30 of them at one point.

^^Purple guy on the left(Freddie), an African Cichlid. Became very agressive so I moved him to a tank of his own(5 gallon). She grew pretty big,literally killed two male fish who wasn't interested in mating with her. By far she was my favorite fish. Yellow Cichilid I had him since he was just a baby,he was an inch in length.

^^ They were curious about what I was doing with the camera. Unstressed fish have characters if you get to know them.

Better shot of Freddie, and my crab too.

Cichlids will pick up gravels and move the them around to construct their own habitat.



I forgot these two guys haha.

Here is one more just for a kick.

Nice!! I eventually wanna get into saltwater setups, but I hear there is crazy maintenance involved.I've had my eye on this for quite a while:http://www.petsmart.com/produc...Bowls

^^ your link doesn't work.

basically the bigger the tank, the easier it is to keep the maintenance. that goes for both fresh and salt water tanks.

salt water is a bit harder than fresh water. and would cost more because you have to buy the salt. once you go through the ammonia-nitrite-nitrate cycle and the water becomes stable it's just as easy as fresh water. salt water fish are far more interesting than fresh water fish. you might as well get live rocks if you're getting a salt water tank.

i wouldn't go any less than 30 gallon if i'm aiming for salt water. go 50-75.

^ Its not just adding salt, you need to make sure water parameters are perfect. Everything needs to be just right. I could sit here and type pages on how to keep everything in check. Lots of research should be done before even thinking about getting into Salt.
