So great to see a bichir!

@solomonrdavid.bsky.social if you haven't seen this yet...they need a little more support to get the gar unlocked!

I have pothos going crazy, plus some Fittonia and Tradescantia as well. I'm trying to design a canopy to increase the humidity to be better for ferns... and keep the cats from eating them.
Yes, even the pothos. Which are apparently not distasteful enough

Don't post much, but very excited by our 8 legged friends around the house.
All at least the size of Canadian nickels.
One was gently relocated though.

Their carcass counts are impressive

That's where I saw it first!

You think those are cute? Check this boopable snoot!

First time in NiaGARa falls, had to go to the Aquarium of Niagara and check out the fishes! Great place to visit, highly recommend!
Just a half-hour walk over the bridge!
@solomonrdavid.bsky.social @lampichthys.bsky.social

Another dollar in the jar I guess

Can always just be patient... it'll resolve eventually!

Or just in a DM, that works too...

Of course, hopefully Canada Post figures their💩 out by then.

Hey @hellbendermuseum.bsky.social remind me which Safari dinosaur you sculpted? I've completely forgotten.

Also... anything about that emperor newt becoming available?

I don't know what this is but I want it

Just realized I didn't put a photo of the 🐟 on here! For the #fish people...

I can't reach it from Spotify like I normally do! Is something changing?

And I hope this doesn't interrupt BigFeets as well...

Recently discussed the Great Lakes Commission sea #lamprey figure by Safari Ltd on the AnimalToyBlog

Awesome figure. We need more unusual #fish models! Especially #freshwater ones

Thanks! I feel like I haven't added to it in too long

A little late on this. But one thing I couldn't let go of...his friend Kwame is from Namibia.
The secret fruit of his tribe (Africa doesn't have cities) is eaten by mountain gorillas. Who live in Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and far west Congo. ~4000km (795rods in imperial) away. 🤔

I for one welcome our corvid overlords. And would like to let them know I have shiny objects AND peanuts

@palaeoplushies.art the newest ancient fish arrived today!

The shoal continues to grow! Just need that bowfin and ropefish! Got big plans when that happens!

Hoping for a mirrorverse version from @hellbendermuseum.bsky.social while we're at it!

Everyone needs models from both of these artists🐟

Goliath Tigerfish (World Fishing Monster Fish by Takara Tomy A.R.T.S.) Recently, those of us that are big fans of unusual fish have been a little spoiled by Japanese sets. As is common, they are featuring some unique species that are visually or culturally striking. I…

I usually forget to mention these, but I've added many #fish posts on the Animal Toy Blog

Today is a pair of Goliath #Tigerfish which are very cool

It was a good day in the mail!

Japan mail call! Mostly #fish!🐟
All #freshwater even! Probably the best #bichir model I have right now...
Took a month to get here, very worth it.
And a prehistoric #rodent representing my MSc!
@tetzoo.bsky.social @solomonrdavid.bsky.social @lampichthys.bsky.social @dinodadreviews.bsky.social

Yes, an orange cat.

Gecko for scale

We have a plastic spike mat on top of our small tank and gecko tank to keep the cats off...after they went through the screen of the latter...

I've mostly kept upper jaws. He'll go in with a palmas and retropinnis.
Over the last few years I've had a couple of polli but they were obnoxious (rehomed)...a couple delhezi (various health things, I've given up on them) and briefly a nasty teugelsi...
No space for an ornate.

Last time I introduced a new #fish it was a plush sturgeon from @palaeoplushies.art

This time it's a cryptid-inspired #Polypterus mokelembembe...

His name is Mokaullay Caulkfin and has the appearance of a calico sausage!

Small tank is a temporary quarantine, not a permanent one!

Three plush fish (bichir, gar, sturgeon) from PalaoPlushies. Plus a couple fish books

New #fish from @palaeoplushies.art!

Added the new #sturgeon to my #bichir and #gar🦕🐟
