thanks for the comments. The snapper is in pure fresh, I do add a tablespoon per gallon to most of my tanks, and that is good for most fish in my experience.

here comes the "eel" Echidna xanthospilus it lived for over 12 months, until the "snapper" took a bit chunk out of its tail and got infected beyong my powers to save it :( Arowspace from the other board came to see it and took some pictures hope he can send them to me or post them here when he gets a chance. Thanks for looking!

Ha Ha, I was getting worried that you weren't going to be posting pics of that nice FW eel you had.

By the way, nice Aro in the beggining, Quain Hu?

I thought a teaspoon per gallon was standard.
yeah, you're probably right, but honestly, i don't keep track of it at all, i just add salt when I get in new fish, but I don't when I do my weekly water changes....but the salt level is not detectable without a digital device or refractometer.

the catlocarpio siamensis, one of the largest carp family fish, gets to 200 plus pounds, and is rare and delicate!

the second picture is one of the red tail hydrolycus, purportedly the ones that grow real big, unlike the other ones that die around 10" can you see the difference? I had this about one year ago!
