That Pet Thread

[Quixon]

I just noticed you were looking into a 45 gallon being your first tank. The bigger the tank, the easier it is to maintain believe it or not. Much less fluctuation in water parameters and gives you a little more margin for error. That being said, I'd go with a 40 Gallon Breeder, it's got a much better footprint to work with (36 x 18 x 13 Tall). You want a longer/shallower tank, that way you don't need z0mg huge lights.

You will save a metric ton of money buying used equipment and rock from guys local that are getting out of the hobby also. Liverock online you're looking at paying $4.99/LB shipped. At a pet store you're looking at around $10-$13/LB. You need about 1-1.5LB per gallon for sufficient filtration.


Don't let the cost scare you though man. It's the most enjoyable and worthwhile thing I've ever spent my money on. There's lots of cheap ways to get around some of the high costs as well.

Here's some links for you to check out:

I'll add my pugs! All I need is a black one to have every color, but don't think I'll be getting one.

Bryce. His tongue is too big for his mouth and it always hangs out, even when he sleeps. He has a chubby tummy so we nicknamed him Porkchop.

Ollie. He's the oldest and likes to hold his rawhide and bones like cigars.

Isaac. Can't really see his face in this picture since he is tearing the ape toy a new one.

Fuck yeah pugs! love those. I gotta post pix of my french and english bulldog, god I love em so much

[Azalee]

Frenchies are cute too. If we didn't have pugs we would have frenchies. Our vet has both.

Edit: Who would have guessed! Last night my mom told me we were going to be getting a frenchie puppy at the end of the month. I am excited!!

Oh shit, sorry for the bump. Posted in the wrong thread, don't ask how. XD...

Has anyone ever owned or know someone who owned a hedgehog? I've always been interested in getting one, but was afraid to.

Either you are a small person or that cat is fat and the size of your torso.

I've only read a little bit about them. But I do know they freak the fuck out and get stressed over loud noises. Pet store near me had one and the woman was giving me a little info on them.

They are pretty cute little guys though.

It's hilarious, this didn't actually show up when doing a search (Heck it still doesn't nor my new thread) and Bwelch was looking for some old pictures he had here to put into the new thread and somehow necrobumped it instead lol.
