I agree about True Value, our local true value, while it’s more of a “mom and pop’s” type store since it’s very much smaller scale compared to other true value stores in the US. The employees have all been there for several years and they do their best at offering help and […]
Before I joined the CA2020 community I believed that the Philippines had no hope of becoming a first world country. I always focused on what’s wrong with the world. It never even occurred to me that I was not contributing to the people around me. My family belonged to the upper-middle class of the society, […]
OK. For future reference, when we refer to an LFS (Local Fish Store), we mean a privately owned specialized fish store where the owner and employees are a little more likely (but not definitely) to know what they are talking about. While there are going to occasionally be knowledgeable fish people at […]
Wow… whoever had the tank before you really falls for advertising. Tell them I have some beautiful water front swampland down here that I’m selling.
The Aqua Plus is OK to finish using as a dechlor product. Once you run out, get a simple dechlor product like API or Top Fin… without all […]
If they were the dip sticks, I guess it depends on which end you are holding. From now on, whenever you have them test your water, write down the actual results.. the numbers that are showing up on their tests. Without that, it’s hard to know what the tests are showing. You can’t […]
I did a quick Google and found two wholesalers/distributors in Brentwood, New York.

The store probably doesn’t show the feeder guppies at least partly because the death rate is probably pretty high. No customer wants to see dead fish in a tank, especially if there are several in the same tank. On the other hand, it is important to know they have a high death rate as […]
Dawn, In the last month or so I have seen someone selling wild guppy stock on Aquabid. I believe they went for a pretty good amount of money. These being “wild” means they may bring in something from the wild. Which means you would need […]
Regular guppies may be the way to go. I don’t even get to see the feeder fish. They are kept in the back of the store where only employees are allowed to go. So I can’t even look at them to see if they are healthy or how they […]
