I see you DrGold, stealing my auctions on aquabid. lol. What will you be using the breeding caves for?

this just made me smile, thanks.

I shall step out of the convo now. Altho I also am curious what Drgold will breed.

Hopefully he will be using any caves in tanks...of his own, in his own fishroom, which means he will be getting his plecos back from me and I will have free tank space again

my bad.... I really liked those breeding bricks and the price was right. Tell ya what, I'll give you first dibs on the first fry that come out of them.

I need to stock up on caves for all the plecs in my signature line. Hopefully Larry (zcliff) can hook me up with whatever else I need - rumor has it he's experimenting with clay caves with removable tops. Those would be sweet.

And yeah...10 weeks to go until I can move out of ND and get some tanks of my own set up. I think I have everything but the house to put them in (oh - what's the word on those other 24x30 tanks?). Plus it wasn't all bad, you got some 260 fry out of the deal, plus all those grab-boxes of dead fish I mailed you from time to time.

That would be awesome, but no hurt feelings. I don't even know if any of my plecos would use them lol. I thought it would be a way to find out what they liked.

And based on your list you have accumulated, I will definately find a place in line for some. Cannot wait til your back in Wisconsin, BTW, where will you be moving to? (My large tanks are in Wisc. Dells/Portage and others in Milwaukee) I just had to do this post once I noticed it was you

It'll be great to get back - especially to watch Packers games without having to go to a bar. Plus, it's Vikings' territory here, so I always catch hell at work when the Packers lose. And hopefully it won't hit -45 in Wisconsin next winter, like it did here a few times this year.

I'm moving to Wausau - just need to line up housing. All my tanks are in my parents' barn in Merrill, and alga and I are trying to score a few more in MI. I'm hoping to start work on 9/1 and spend the time between 8/7 and then setting up my fishroom. It'll be my gift to myself for graduating.

I get to Milwaukee a lot (my grandparents are there), so it'll be pretty easy to set up some fish trades from time to time. I'm hoping to get back salmon/steelhead fishing again this fall, too. When I went to college at UW-Milwaukee, I took all night classes one semester and fished every day. That was easily the best four months of the past nine years.

p.s. I saw you were bidding on some L10a's that end today and I was tempted, but I laid off. Good luck!!

Nah, already outbid on them. I really want to purchase some of the L180's that are listed, I just cannot afford it right now. Getting married in 42 days, $30k in student loans, and $820 a month in rent.
