Aquarium Project....

[Zod]

Decided to setup a small aquarium for the boys. Instead of just going to the pet store we went down to the creek and collected minnows, crayfish, plants. Figure its a bit more fun to collect our own and educational for them about the local environment. Anyone else done this? SO far the crayfish have already eaten one of the minnows which was a huge hit with the boys to watch. lol

awesome

its addicting

the crayfish will build themselves a hideout if they cant find a rock to hide under

[Zod]

Yeah, there is some slate I put in there and they are currently hiding in the little caves it made. One idiot fish swam in front of it and was grabbed and torn apart live while his other minnow buddies ate floating bits of him. It was awesome.

Add a snake or a frog.

my crayfish are way too pussified

I tried to put one in a goldfish bowl for a little while with a minnow so they could battle it out in the thunderdome and nothing happened

Water moccasins make great pets.

You need to clean that mess up under the fish tank. How do you live like that?

[bleys]

sounds like a great idea... the crayfish is a nice addition, one I might have to remember for the future...

only came on to add how addicting aquariums are..

Add a snake or a frog.

Tadpole would be better. If it survives, it gets a name.

How did you catch the crayfish? Heading to the mountains next month and that sounds pretty cool.

get an aquarium fish net and look under rocks

the bigger the rock the bigger the crayfish will be usually

as soon as you startle them they'll hit it in reverse so put the net behind them and they'll swim right into it
