First off, I apologize for the quality of the images, my camera isn't the greatest, and sometimes my punks don't like to hold still!
Also, all of these pics are about a week or two old, I have done some upgrades to Raphie's tank since these were taken.
Anyway, here is Raphie:
Raphie's set up:
We had just finished moving, so the tank was pretty bare while I waited for my new plants to arrive. The area under the dock serves as an underwater garden and fish hiding spot, since Raph can't get to it. It is now fully stocked with water plants, fish, and shrimp.
Now on to Lucia, these are the pics from her previous owner that were posted on her listing:
These are pics of Lucy the day I brought her home. I didn't have much time to make her tank fancy, as the rescue happened kinda quickly. Also, I had to drain out most of the water that I initially had in the tank so she wouldn't drown:
Lucy has a dry dock now and we've gotten her water level up to 1' without her panicking!! Also, I'm not sure if you can see it or not, but she had some bad redness around the edges of her skin which have now cleared up. I'm not sure what happened to her tail, I noticed when I brought her home that the end was black and tip seems to be missing. Of course I got no explanation from the previous owner. I think it is some kind of old injury, and I've been keeping an eye on it. So there are my girls, enjoy!!
