    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Help! My fish is trapped!

I recently just started up a new cichlid tank... I unknowingly put in a rock with a hole in it... And it doesn't go all of the way through, just to the inside of the rock. And the rock is pretty big with a bunch of crevices. I guess one of my cichlids swam into the hole and I can't get him out... Does anybody know how I could try and get him out?
 
A friend of mine who has many cichlids told me to tell you to let him be. If you try to pull him out you will just hurt him. He probably swam in there to get away from another fish that was harassing him. If he is going to come out he needs to do it all on his own.
