My res doesnt like my water filter so he takes all his plants and sticks it infront of the water filter -.-, I tried moving it but he does it again so the water turns dirty really quickly. Also they pry out the bubble wall and stick it underneath the floating turtle dock and it normally wakes me up in the morning because it becomes really loud once it hits the surface.

O well, I guess he(or i think its a he) will do whatever he wants to do

She likes to pull the filter intake and spraybar loose from the tank wall every time after I finish cleaning her tank. I think I have finally beat her though. I found some new kind of suction cup holders which have 2 cups per holder. I put two of those holders on the spraybar and two on the intake pipe. Muahahahaha!!! She hasn't been able to pull it loose yet. Of course she just took out her frustration on the new plastic plant decorations I put in which are now strewn all over the tank.



Grrrr!!!! She ripped it loose. I swear she must be a teenage mutant ninja turtle or something.

Yes she is.

She was able to pull the pipe loose from the holders but not the holders from the wall so I just have to reinforce the way the pipe is attached to the new holders which I might add is already very secure. I could barely pull it loose.

I WILL NOT BE OUTSMARTED BY A TURTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh it isn't outsmarting. It's outstubborning. At least that's what I keep telling myself. :lol:
