  1. I thought it was illegal to let cows into natural waterways?

    Pond cleaners

    Does anyone know if the cleaners, used to suck up muck in swimming pools, can be used in fish ponds?

    Thank you all for the suggestions. They are making me laugh! :lol: :lol: :lol:
  4. Ummmm, I have never looked that closely at swamps and wetlands, which I think are too separate things (but don't quote me). Swamps tend to be a lot of still water with trees around the edges. Wetlands have shallower water and a lot of marshy areas for frogs and other critters. Have a look here and here

    Greetings!

    Hmmm I thought Bud, the wonder budgie, was the only pet in here with his own computer. I see your angel appears to have a Blackberry or similar! :lol:
  6. A high proton diet? 8) Just don't fiddle with the knobs
  7. Hi and welcome. I can't comment on HRV V DVS but would like to point out your tank is really too small for two goldfish and a plec. All those fish would be much happier in something twice the size
  8. I think it was tinytawnykitten. Called Butterfly and Insect World and next to a large Dobbies Garden Centre
  9. Got some pics whetu? Our club did a walk in the dark at Whites Bay. There are supposed to be carnivorous snails there but we didn't find any.
  10. Hi and welcome. If you go up to the User Control Panel (top left of screen) and add your location to your profile it helps people see where you are if you ever require more personal assistance (like swapping plants, fish etc).
  11. The Babel Fish is small, yellow, leech-like, and is a universal translator which simultaneously translates from one spoken language to another. When inserted into the ear, its nutrition processes convert sound waves into brain waves, neatly crossing the language divide between any species you should happen to meet whilst travelling in space. Meanwhile, the poor Babel fish, by effectively removing all barriers to communication between different races and cultures, has caused more and bloodier wars than anything else in the history of creation. Arthur Dent, a surviving Earthling, commented only 'Eurgh!' when first inserting the fish into his ear canal. It did, however, enable him to understand Vogon Poetry - not necessarily a good thing. The book points out that the Babel Fish could not possibly have developed naturally, and therefore proves the existence of God as its creator. However, as Man points out, God needs faith to exist, and this proof dispels the need for faith, therefore causing God to vanish "in a puff of logic".
  12. I don't think the Babel fish helps with understanding Vogon poetry as nothing does that! Oh freddled gruntbuggly, Thy micturations are to me As plurdled gabbleblotchits On a lurgid bee That mordiously hath bitled out Its earted jurtles Into a rancid festering [drowned out by moaning and screaming] Now the jurpling slayjid agrocrustles Are slurping hagrilly up the axlegrurts And living glupules frart and slipulate Like jowling meated liverslime Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes And hooptiously drangle me With crinkly bindlewurdles, Or else I shall rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon See if I don't.
  13. So you wouldn't like the Babel fish either huh? :lol:
  14. aff ee oh sem eeon and that other one :lol: Definitely dah nee oh dahling
  15. Lucky you! I assume you will be travelling complete with camera? :lol:
  16. It was (and still is) a giant millipede. Same as LAs except more compacted body parts (and a few more legs) :lol: It was very hard to the touch and I don't know how squishable it would be, although a good stomp would do it in I am sure. It was very friendly and didn't bite anyone.

    Then I think Russell is the most appropriate suggestion so far :lol:
  18. We got to play with one of these in Scotland... Must be a relative :lol:
  19. The Greek letter is Beta though, not betta
  20. Aren't goths supposed to have the heavy black eye makeup too?
  21. My husband promptly said "string" and "spot" :roll: :lol: My age is showing if I suggest Gidget :lol: Goldilocks is a good idea for daughter and GI Joe would be an easy one for your husband to find a costume. If your son goes as a goldfish we want pics! Mind you, we will want pics anyway. Got enough fur material for a gremlin? We have a great dress up shop here and the staff are really good at outfitting you for whatever occasion.
  22. My first killie was A scheeli. A lovely fish and easy to look after and breed.
