OH Zev...just when I thought I had a chance :slfg: My ammonia test kit is API; nitrite is Nutrafin. I don't even remember where I read about looking "down" the tube. Caper

Awesome pictures blueether Caper

GrahamC: :rotf: Now you know why I have such a hard time distinquishing the colors :sml1: :sml1: Ira: Oh, I am so glad I am not the only one :happy2: I hold it away from the chart; close to the chart; on the chart :nilly: I even read somewhere that a good way to check was to open the cap and look down into the tube!

Curious So with all these plants, you don't vacuum do you? With so many places to hide, how do you keep track of your fish? If you were to rearrange, does everything have to be taken out? Thanks, Caper

Both my cats are orange tabbies. Ginger likes to get up and lay on them, Tigger likes to drink the water :sick: until I get to him! I like my tanks but they certainly are not as awesome as this one! Take care, Caper

58...that was HARD!!!!!!

Well, this is the first picture I've seen of you...and you sure would pass for a teenager! Take care of yourself, Caper :thup:

Are "greys" a type of cockatoo?

Awesome :thup: :thup: :thup: Cute doggie...my cats don't pay any attention to the tanks :dunno: Caper

Thanks all :sml2: Now that is something I do remember blueether, many people, many opinions...and I don't mean that in a bad way Ammonia still slightly below .5 (although someone else might look and say...nope .5 :smln: ); 0 nitrites. Did a water change. The fish is not sitting on the bottom today; all are active and swimming; hope it stays that way I will keep up the water changes till ammonia is 0. Blueether I do have the ammonia and nitrite test kits; and will consider the nitrate kit but still on the fence about that since when I started 7 years ago I didn't have one (couldn't buy locally). I really appreciate all the help :thup: Thanks, Caper

Ah, I hate when I hear any animal/bird being neglected :an!gry Are they hard to train? Or does it depend on the individual bird? Thanks, Caper :oops:

What a beautiful bird Ah, just exactly what does that mean :oops: and training for what???? Thanks, Caper

Oh my gosh Stella I'm so sorry to read all this but SUPER glad that you and your friend didn't suffer more than you did. I sure hope you feel better real soon. I'd have to agree with Ira ( did I just type that). I thought you were older only because when I was on here a few years ago. You spoke (you were still writing your book) like someone who had years and years of experience. You must have started when you were a toddler. Because you're still a very, very young lady! You are a beautiful young lady (bruises and all) Now, I do recall how dedicated you were...but really...even I agree there must be easier ways to get to a stream Take care! Caper

Being a plant dummie...how many different types do you have in this tank that looks so awesome Caper

Thanks $10 is too much when you don't know what you are getting and how to probably take care! I did see 2 in tanks that I liked but the guy couldn't tell me anything about them April 3rd was the first time ammonia registered. Two weeks ago, shouldn't I be seeing nitrites (even though I only got the kit the other day)???? I've read various sites about amount of water to change during tank cycling. Overall concensus would be to do a water change as long as ammonia is registering to reduce stress on fish (that makes sense to me). BUT, could I be removing too much??? Isn't the bottom line to get the ammonia out? Thanks, Caper
