Re: [Killietalk] Anyone growing houseplants in the fishroom?



My wife and I have a tradition every year I get her some violets and by the 
end of summer they are wilted dead and gone. It is the season to get her 
some new ones. I like the Minnie's and would love to get some starter 
leaves. Used worm dirt that has been microwave to kill the mites makes great 
soil for the violets.

Breed your fish today before man's
over population kill's the wild supply.
