    my garter addiction

    This is kind of bad, but hanging out here really kicks in my garter addiction.
    I want more.
    If I could only catch those two fully grown Siamensis in my 33G tank, then I could put the entire content of my 20G long into that tank. Who needs two fishtanks anyway - all those water changes are a pain.
    I'd really pretty much have to take everything out of the 33G to get them though. Maybe next week . . .

    Re: my garter addiction

    Hello. My name is Rhea, and I have a snake addiction . I think we're all pretty similar... looking all over the house for an empty spot where a new enclosure would fit.

    I've put my children up for sale on the internet. It will free a lot of space and just think of all the snakes I could buy with the money I get for them!

    I know the feeling.

    Just turned down an offer on a flat, because it was too expensive, if I wanted to keep garters as well....

    But I still like it.

    did you really do that?
    I've thought about feeding the Siamensis to the adult garters.
    They're a tough fish though, 3.5" long, muscular and 6 years old. I am worried that the snake would get hurt.
    I can bring them to the shop and trade them for feeders for the little ones.
    That lone surviving albino Buenos Aires Tetra - also ancient - l've thought about feeding that one too. He looks tasty and I bet he's lonely anyway, being a Tetra.

    Let's get this right....everything was perfect, but you kept losing fish and you Garters are happy? You've been raising snake food!! LOL
