  1. You can get stuff used to paint the inside of concrete water tanks.
  2. Moving her too much when she is pregnant may cause her to abort. It is always better to keep her in the main tank with lots of floating plants for her and the fry to hide in. Might be easier to separate the bully.
  3. The fancy goldfish are prone to swim bladder disease. Is it worse after feeding?
  4. A fish can have pinkish poo depending on its diet. She will drop fry every 4 - 6 weeks. When almost due she will be very fat and you may be able to see fry eyes as black dots through the belly. Add some floating plant to the net you have her in as she will eat her own fry as well. Feed them crushed flake.
  5. I have never had a problem with any sort of danios attacking anything
  6. It is just what you think. He is waiting to eat the fry as they are born and then attempt to be first to mate with the female (so, he's thick :roll: )
  7. Have fun, behave yourself (or don't get caught) and DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SMUGGLE ANY FISH BACK WITH YOU!! :lol:
  8. We totally redecorated our lounge and re-carpeted with the tank in situ and had no problems whatsoever. Make sure the area is well ventilated. We used water based paint.
  9. I am sure you can find someone else to go with bdspider.
  10. I went to see this film and thoroughly enjoyed it. Weta Workshops did an outsdtanding job on the graphics as usual. Good story. My parents were impressed with the costumes and said they got the WWII era exactly right. Mum also loved the scenery and the castles. Said it was Scotland and could even name many of the castles. She was startled to read at the end that it was shot at Lake Wakatipu :lol: If you have the time - go and see this. Good family film. I was intrigued to discover most of the young ones in the theatre queue were there to see I Am Legend rather than The Water Horse which was showing at the same time.

  13. What about the unaffiliated but interested?

  15. It has been done before but who cares? :lol: We have the fish plus Bud the Wonder Budgie. All other pets now gone, along with the kids
  16. I would check the ammonia levels. If they are at the top a lot you might also need more oxygen. How many in what size tank? How often are you doing water changes?
  17. Yes fish have a sense of smell. Salmon apparently have a highly developed one.

    My tanks

    They will grow too big for a 2ft tank. The others are fine.

    BN and goldies

    I have never blanched cucumber, just wash (to remove residue - you don't know where they've been if not organic) slice and add.
  20. I just hose it off, give it a light scrub with an old nail brush, hose it off again then add it to the tank. Check out the nooks and crannys for little critters, excess sand, or egg sacs.
