Official Squatch Watchers

Have you tried a small dab of clove essential oil for the pain? You can dilute it with a carrier oil like canola or sunflower, whatever you yave on hand, if you find it’s too strong on it’s own.

Not yet, but I may. Thanks for the tip.

If I get live bears again I've considered getting these.
I know a small family pet store that carries them.

6000 pages in 3 years. Congratulations squatch watchers. Hopefully I'll be here when it reaches 10,000

I forgot this was a Squatch Watchers thread. Has anyone seen a squatch? I haven’t seen the original chicken this was named for but I did find bigfoot. At least a very decent sized statue someone in my neighborhood has in their yard. Lol!

Those look like the ones I have. They’re very pretty! Mine are called snakeskin guppies, though.

I hope I never see one, because it would scare the heck out of me!

Good morning Bob, how are you doing these days?

I'm doing well. Heading out soon to get outside work done before it heats up.

I was in the original thread and he was a beautiful rooster. We're pretty sure there was a hen too but she never found her after the initial sightings.

At my old house that I grew up in I saw all sorts of strange things and would not have second-guessed a Bigfoot or even a velociraptor lol
We had emus one time randomly show up, a nice indian blue peafowl, a pregnant python (dad got it with the lawnmower so we found out it was pregnant that way), we have giant freshwater clams in a pond on the property (get like 8" long!), Also had mini jellyfish show up when you're in the pond. Found out later on in college that they were the mature form of a freshwater Hydra. Still not sure where they come from though.
Then of course you have all the native local wildlife like mountain lions, bears, eagles..... Etc.

I'm the first pic that's just some mature anubias nana. Nothing special in there. It's a low light plant and grows easy. As for keeping it clean. I run two filters in this tank due to how messy the goldfish can get and the bristlenose pleco does a very good job at scraping algae on these tougher leaved plants and the glass.
The betta bowl has the purple passion and "ECHINODORUS VESUVIUS HELANTHIUM" it does not get really big lot corkscrew Val. The birds come from a little gift shop at the beach I went to one time lol.
in the third picture I can't remember what all the plants are in it. They was just some random once I grabbed at PetSmart. The one is a dwarf melon sword I believe. It's really just getting started back as the tank I had it in I tore down and had not had the light on in quite a while. I also have some anubias of course. Those rocks are locally sourced and I've had them for a very long time. I got them out of the creek next to the house I grew up in when I was a kid. I like them because they was kind of a blue color lol.

I thought those were anubias. Mine are completely covered in algae. I thought the ottos would help but they don’t seem to like them. Guess I’ll have to get a pleco after all and some ECHINODORUS VESUVIUS HELANTHIUM. I wasn’t planning on doing any tank shopping. Darn

Was he ever caught?

We had some wild turkey that had chicks this year in the back yard but unfortunately the family of foxes that lives across the road ended up getting off of the turkey chicks this time.

Otto's are great for some algae species but they really don't seem to care for the thicker dark green algae. A bristlenose plecostomus or a rubber lip plecostomus are both great for that particular kind of algae and do not get super large like Godzilla in my 125. He is the common sailfin pleco.
ramshorn snails are actually very good algae eaters also if you were not opposed to having a breeding colony of snails in your tank. I can't have them with the goldfish because the goldfish eat them but I have them in practically all of my other tanks.
I also got another new plant that is called an octopus plant. It's still new so I'm not exactly sure what the mature form is going to look like but I am excited about it. Hoping it lives it says that it is a low to moderate like plant I also got some dwarf sag that I'm starting in the living room tank.
