Yes and they are a dark green and really round, whereas the grey ones tend to be flatter on top and bottom.

Did your lunch enjoy the walk? :lol:

The amount of difference driftwood will make to the pH depends on what else is in the tank with it.
-
Good to hear he has come right. Make a note to see if he has troubles after being fed.

Many line ponds using the stuff they sell at farmers' supply stores for the farm dams. You can also buy lining in precut sizes at places like The Warehouse.

Welcome to the fishroom

The flakes ought to be fine but if you had been feeding pellets, I wanted to note that some swell more when wet than others. Flakes should be good unless he gulps a lot of air when eating (as goldfish are also prone to do). A couple of peas will be fine (popped out of their skin) and you should see results within a day or two. Don't feed any other foods in the meantime.

I should think they freeze well so could be made earlier in the week even!

We had a whole farm to run around in and our own creek to fall into :lol: You were allowed to climb trees, almost drown when your homemade canoes sank, ride bikes downhill without helmets, have fights with slingshots, make brake-free go-karts, and all the fun stuff in the olde days

Pictionary and Scabble have already been mentioned. Barrel of Monkeys, Meccano, lots of card games, Operation...

and elastics :lol:

What were you feeding him and what was he being fed before you got him? Black moors are one of the short bodied goldfish and very prone to digestive disorders and swim bladder problems. If it is his digestion, the peas ought to clear him out. Some of the cheaper brands of fish pellets swell a lot when water is added. If you give them to these fish they eat them fine but they swell up once in the digestive canal causing problems until they are expelled at the other end.

Babysitting? Aren't you using them as free slave labour? -
Fin rot is usually caused by poor water quality. It may also be that another fish is attacking it. What else in in there?

I think a pie raffle would go down well (no pun intended) :lol: Or a pie auction. -
I realise that but what I meant was, as I do not know whether a 10 year guarantee silicone was used, I don't know if I actually have the better odds a longer original guarantee would give
-
Yep. I think this needs to be locked. Enough said.
-
product range will focus on plants which are difficult to obtain from the LFS and aquascaping products (CO2 regulators, fertilisers etc) apparently
-
I have absolutely no idea if it had a guarantee to begin with! :lol: We used it as a wardrobe for a couple of years before it was set up
-
It was the last (and best) piece of the day, just before 9am.
-
That would be great skippy. It is only about 5 - 7 minutes long. We would appreciate not having to listen to Paul Henry's inanities at the start
-
I was not thinking in terms of "guarantee", just how long I could expect it to hold under normal conditions. Methinks I will get it re-sealed next time I strip it. Better safe than sorry. Unfortunately it is built into a wall unit (in fact the unit was designed around the tank) so I can't take the opportunity of making it bigger either. Oh well, still talking about a 6ft for the computer room

Go have a look at his site Sam and all will be revealed.
