This will be the most boring start to a photo thred ever.
(I'm photo-illiterate)

Izzie took bunches of pix of my smallish tropical tanks while visiting from England, and we will land them here as she finds time.

Please post your own pictures as you like.

Mashed peas. Very British.

Right, Izzie?

@Robert Gentel,

Oh, don't mind us. We're just messing around.

We'd love to see your pics, RG.

Yeah, if they're halibut, count me in! Oh, I could go for some right now.

@Robert Gentel,

The second photo is of two "blind" albino catfish (part of the cleanin' crew) my ropefish, a swordtail, a guppy or two, and RG that is a kind of tetra, but it is not blind. I will have to ask my guru again. (have a school of 4)

The "Kansas Guppy harvest" was a success, and is still in progress. I will have some new varieties of guppy as well as some new giant white snails...

More to follow...

OK, now that we've solved the mystery of mushy peas...

I have a tank question, but I'm not startin' a new thred, so if I get an answer, you will be stiffed on yer red ribbon thingy.

I am REALLY fighting algae in the big tank. I changed out 1/3 of the water last night, but it is still murky and greenish.

No live plants yet, and it sits right next to the small tank which has zero troubles.

I have a large plecostemus, so the glass is not green, but the plastic plants are starting to fuzz...

Any ideas, smart fish folks of A2K?

(don't much like chemicals...)

Might have to play with the light, the big tank does have a significantly brighter lighting set-up.

Thanks, Alex.
