The critter thread!

[slashvanyoung]

That picture is just waaaaay to adorable! Makes me want a hamster really bad. But I already discarded my idea of getting a pug this year because I'm so often away from home and I don't like the idea of my animals being a burden to other people. Sucks...

 

[Tide In Mind Out]

Problem solved!

 

[slashvanyoung]

Hahaha awesome! I don't think there are many guys in bands taking their hamsters on tour.

That, gentlemen, is an axolotl, an aquatic salamander originating from Mexico. Also known as an IRL mudkip.

Can my little critters join this thread too?
Ok, they are just fishies but they are so cute.
If one is interested in the article that belongs to these pictures, please feel free to read and comment.
Breeding Gastromyzons hasn't really been a succes on a greater scale, so i'm kinda proud i have an active couple.
Haven't seen any fry survive yet but maybe soon, because i'm a few weeks away from redecoration on the substrate.
I now have sand but i'm going to change it into gravel.
Not all of it, i will keep a 'sandy beach' in front of the glass but pictures of that later, after the redecoration.
Here's one of my precious Hillstream Loaches and this Gastromyzon momma is mega full with eggs and ready to spawn ^^

Yep, those guys are so funny looking. I knew a guy that had over 60 fish tanks in his house (I know.... crazy) and he kept some of those.


Iris, love the fishies!! <3




and no offense, but the bugs are disgusting
I could never do that... brrrrrr insects. :zombie:

 

[Tide In Mind Out]

I wouldn't keep insects myself, but I think think they're kinda cool. The bug house is always one of my favorite places to visit at the zoo! (Zoos are evil, I know)

O hai indeed!

Meet Stanica/Fritz/Himmel/Undecided, the baby jackdaw!

 

[Captain Beard]

Is the bird edible?

 

[Morbides]

*steps back with a worried expression, holding the bird tight*

 

[Tide In Mind Out]

Birdie!

David would like to eat every critter shown in this thread

 

[Captain Beard]

Give or take one or two.

Well, it's been some time since the last of the bettas I got in 2009 passed away. My schedule has calmed down and I'm getting to spend more time at home now, so I thought it was time to bring another fish home (tried to get the most pathetic looking one, of course). I had wanted to get one of these long bookshelf aquariums for a betta a few years ago but didn't really have the space for it. I love how it fits on the desk!
