Maegaret Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 I am new to this site and to this kind of posting. I have been in contact with Bill (Pegasus NZ) who has been kind enough to help me with my sick goldfish I had two left alive at that time out of the four I orginally brought I now have one fantail left and s/he has recovered. It was very stressful as I had had them for about nine months and I am hopeing to keep this one in good health. S/he lives in a 2 foot by 1 foot by 1 foot tank with a water filter and after a number of salt baths s/he is at last swimming and acting normally for which I am very grateful. I am afraid that I am not very good at introductions so you may have to help me out. Maegaret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Welcome Maegaret. The forum is not meant for you to have to hang around and wait for a reply. Just post your messages then check for answers next time you log in. If you want something more 'real time' come into the chat room around 9pm as there is a group of us there most nights. See at the top of the page where it says IR Chat (0)? Click on that then agree to load the applet when it asks (you will need Java to get in. Most computers have that loaded. If you don't it is a free download if you Google for it). Hopefully when you go to chat it actually says IR Chat (3) or a similar number as the number in brackets tells you how many are already in the chat room. The number is refreshed every 5 minutes.

Caper Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Hi As I have said MANY, MANY times this is great site...people are all so kind and so eager to help, I'd be lost withouth them I have 3 goldfish, Sam, Beauty, and Puff. I've only been in the hobby a little over a year and love it. Sorry about your losses, but it's a sad part of the hobby that we will loose fishies Take care & have fun here...I know you'll get lots of help and lots of smile too :lol: :lol: Caper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustcooktea Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Welcome to the site! Sorry to hear about your fish losses and good luck with your fantail. My daughter has goldfish and my son has tropical fish. I am still waiting to get my own tank(s) though! Look forward to hearing more from you.

Caper Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 Gee, Mustcooktea, I didn't realize you didn't have any tanks of your "own" yet. That is an outrage....hmmmmmmm....who do we call? Write letters to? Place ads in the newspapers? etc., etc., etc. :lol: And you are such any expert on taking care of fishies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
