ADDY -- Oh I did look at your build! That may be the spark that started my interest. The thumbnails show up, but the other images (early in the post) showed up but not as links I could follow.

I can repost them, with what I have on photobucket, might need to wait until I get home after the 2nd, don't the the computer with all my pictures with us.

I am with Mmathis this bog thing is very confusing :) Addy maybe next year you can post a video?? Please please I want to add a bog to my current pond next Spring and I am more of a watch and learn kinda girl..please please.

lol not sure how to do a video of my bog build without building a new one, maybe a tiny replica, will need to wait until we are home again.

REMIND ME!

Addy do a scale model set up of a bog and pond complete with an actual pump etc. Maybe you could even set this up in your basement and make it a winter project.

Ha ha when I had them I had to separate the males from the females or I'd still have them now 10yrs later. It took awhile but they are all gone now............never again!

j.w.; don't belittle the mighty guppy! Those little buggers were a steady source of income in my younger days. If I remember correctly, I got something like two or three cents apiece for them. Big money back then!!! John

I guess those guppies made you what you are today John. Who knows where you'd be w/o them!

Yup, got my start in the hobby around three or four years of age when a friend gave me some baby guppies in a jam jar. Mother made me return them, but I was hooked for life!
