AQUASAUR

So, SEX or not…!? I don’t know what to think about… Just saw it today and make a few snapshots…
Just before to dump all the stuffs from a quarantine plant tank of mine and clean it as well…
As I see now...the pictures are not enough qualify, but interesting, though…
So, here it is that Planaria story…













Ooops, I’ll stop the story here…because there are forum members under 18 ages, though!
Would be nice to hear your opinion about this event…

I feel like a voyeur... Here I thought you were going to show us how to tell if a fish was a male or female! Well at least I don't have those things in my tank.. (just poisonous centipedes)...

i think that the tube visible in the last pic is the planaria trying to eat something via its pharynx.

Only Hristo could make planaria beautiful.

Now I have something to tell the friends tonight.

"What did you do today Jess?"

"Oh nothing. A little work, mostly macro Planaria sex."

OT: Texgal... you have WHAT in your tank?

Tex Gal

I got a free centipede with my plant order from aquaticmagic. I think it was black but I'm not sure. I only saw it for a second as it crawled from one piece of moss to another. I don't know if it was poisonous, but I do know it was creepy to get a bug from Malaysia!

Yikes, hit it with an OD of excel if you don't have any other invertebrates in the tank. Yuck.

Tex Gal

Not to worry - I don't think it ever came out of the moss. (I hope not) Once I found out that there really are poisonous centipedes I burned it up. Didn't want any eggs or anything.
