The temperatures in the Lower Mainland have been in the mid 30′s for the past 2 weeks and it’s causing the water in fish tanks to heat up. So today I decided to change the water in both my tanks and pour in some cold water to even out the temperatures to 78-80 degrees. I [...]

SuperTank molted on Monday, the 2nd time since I got him and it’s great to see he is doing well. He has also been moving rocks out of his little den for the past week. None of the fish seems to bother him and once in a while he catches one for fun and eats [...]

I got a new crayfish on the long weekend and named him SuperTank. Why SuperTank you ask? Well my first crayfish I got was named Tank but he died a few months later so I decided to name this crayfish SuperTank as he looks really tough and is really big. He is an Australian Blue [...]

A friend of mine was cleaning her tank when she discoverd 3 little baby crayfish in her tank and since I am the fish tank nut she told me to take them so they wouldn’t get eaten by their mother. I took them home and added them to my 20 gallon community fish tank.

On the weekend my favorite crayfish Homer, just a day after molting died from unknown causes. He was getting bigger and bigger and I really liked him as he was really cool and mellow to look at in my 29 Gallon tank. After molting he was very orangy color which was odd, but i thought [...]
