    Hmmm Olly, I can't remember where I read about them but I didn't mean they should only have sand. I thought I read that they like to bury themselves in it. When I have more time I'll see if I can find the spot I read it :-? Caper

    I think in New Zealand, folks correct me if I'm wrong, you need something called Wonder Tonic...could be the wrong name. Somebody tell her the name of the cure for ich. When treating for ich, you must remove the carbon (if you have any in your filter, as the carbon will remove the meds). The treatment for ich only kills the "parasite" after they fall off the fish. Follow the directions for the treatment and follow exactly as it reads. For example, the stuff I bought here, luckily haven't had to use it in over 2 years! Anyway, I had to do a 25% water change, treat, then so many days I think, treat...anyway, all the treatments must be kept up till all visible signs of the ich are GONE! Meaning that you usually treat for a period of time after there is no more white spots on the fish. Geesh, does that make sense? Caper
  9. Hi & welcome! Well, all you can tell your husband is that you have come down with MTS (multiple tank syndrome) and there is NO CURE :lol: :lol: Take care & have fun, Caper Hi Jude soooooooo good to see you here :bounce: :bounce:
  10. Um, what are they? :oops: Locally here they have stock car races (race around an oval dirt track) I think it's still dirt. I haven't been to those since I was a little girl. Drag races I love...that's what my sons are into. Posting pics hope they are not too big, still trying to get used to the new photobucket :oops: Okay, this was my grandson going down the track at lunch break. Craig: Ryan: Caper

    Watch your fish and you'll get used to their "usual" habits/behaviour. Then if something changes, it may or may not indicate something is up. Some signs that could be stress, others can please add: -breathing heavily -gulping at the top of the tank as if they need more air (example, say in the summer the water in the tank goes really high, which could reduce the amount of air) -flashing - looks like they are scratching themselves against objects (they may do this once in awhile but if it becomes more constant then something could be up) -a fish that is normally out and about is now hiding all the time - not feeding like they normally do Umm, what else folks? Caper
