Mercier,

I have about 650 dollars plus a $125 speeding ticket to pay off.

Figure it'll take me abouttttttt a month. Couple hundred bucks from christmas, 300-400 paycheck from working at walmart nonstop before christmas,

It was like 800 but I paid 150 on the credit card yesterday.

I'd be fine if it wasn't for the damn tires I had to buy and that stupid speeding ticket.

No, Jack Dempseys are New World cichlids that require very different conditions and will get too big for the rest of your cichlids. Tell her thanks, but no thanks.

yeahhh I figured that was the case. I told her I probably couldn't take it but I'd look into it. She offered me an oscar too. And a "green one" which I'm assuming is a green terror.

... oh and if you didn't notice, I'm no longer going for an all male tank. I'm going for a 3-4 females per male ratio.

hopefully I'll get some babies.

ok, one of the female white top afras now appears to be a male. Two days later and he's colored up and going after other fish. Is it possible to have a 2maleX2female ratio? or no?

And if it isn't possible, is 1 maleX2 female ratio ok?

I took the last three white top afra's in this city and ordering one fish offline isn't really my fancy.
