How Distressing

[Phoenixbaby]

My mum and Dad are in egypt, and i was like cool i can sort her tank out, as it looks ####

Well, fish with clamped fins, dead fish, fish with lumps, snail infestation, fungus like growths

treating the tank with melafix and pimafix, and ive salted the water

Im sooo angry at her

no offense pheonix, but what a cow...

leaving the fish in that sort of a state, how long has it been since she done a water change or anything?

at least it you show her how it should be kept she may take more time in sorting her tank instead of other things

thanks

Im suprised her male Betta is ok

You need anti internal bacteria med by interpet and pimafix.

 

[Phoenixbaby]

Pimafix works on internal and external, so its doing the trick

her fish have perked up alot this morning

once ive washed my motorbike im going to crack on with her tank me thinks

 

[Phoenixbaby]

Ok so today I admitted defeat with the snails

Soooo, i went out and bought a new tank for her, a 58litre tank, thats stunning, it has a blue backing, and behind that sits the heater, and the filter, so when u look into the tank, its just fish and plants

Also theres 3 set of lights, with blue leds, a very flash tank indeed

got new sand, and new silk plants and ornaments

Needless to say I spent a fortune today, I hope she appreciates it

At present, the old tank is running empty, with nothing in but water, and running the snail treatment to kill the eggs

Gosh im a good daughter

 

[newfishy]

are you going to snag the old tank for a spawn tank then? hehe

 

[Phoenixbaby]

hell nooo lol

i dont like the way the tank works, so she can do what ever she likes with it lol

 

[Netty]

If we adopt you Phoe....you could do that for us too

 

[Phoenixbaby]

lolol netty u nutter

My poor bank account lol, my card is screaming "put me awayyyy" lol

Just hope she likes it, severl fish have died (in the old tank) but ive salted this tank now, and added a strong internal bacteria, finrot and fungus treatment to the tank, which is a 3 day treatment, so fingers crossed

Im having the cycle the tank with the fish in, couldnt use her media as it is riddled with snails and eggs( and im not using my media)

so just gotta keep on top of water changes now, I hope her male CT gets thru all this bloody treatment

 

[Netty]

Sounds like you've got a big job on your hands with that but I'm sure she'll love it when she gets back

 

[Phoenixbaby]

heres the new tank, filter and heater is behind the blue backing

 

[Netty]

That looks great Phoe....you've done a really good job with it....well done

 

[Phoenixbaby]

how cool is it tho with the filter and heater all hidden away!! i love it lol and i want it hehe

aww ty netty, its taken me most of the day to get both tanks sorted, im knackered and ive still got to do the housework lol, just not enough hours in the day

and to top it off, my cj has gone home now, wont see him for agesss now tut
