evilknieval69 Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 Hi Welcome to the forums!!! Anyone no where I can buy some patience? Hospital??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aez Posted August 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 yeah i learnt that if the glass you get for a patch is too big just get another piece cut as its not worth the time and stress to sand it down!!!!!!!!!! and having lots of other tanks to put all your fish into is vital!!!!!!

ryanjury Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 LOL yeah but having extra tanks just sitting there is impossible they end up filled with fish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aez Posted August 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 true all my tanks were full just ended up being a case of musical tanks sorting it out so they wouldnt eat each other and daily water changes to cope with the extra loading on the system.
