My First Attempt At Posting A Pic.

[flips]

There are at least 3 people who have proved themselves as having an opinion based on making themselves feel good instead of providing helpful information.

we did give you helpful information, and others have according to you, youve jus chosen to ignore it.

doesn't really seem like this person is 'ignoring' it at all... since they've already got a bigger tank cycling.

Pull you heads in people, if I want useless advice that I have heard before... several times then I'll ask.

hes the one that sed it was useless advice.

so if he has this bigger tank why didnt he clone it so the fish could go straight in to it

Easier said than done sometimes.. depending on the new and old filters and whether it is possible to run them in the same tank at the same time.. e.g. my new tank was a juwel rio, and the filter is a fixed internal tank filter... Plus, i only had 3 fish on the old tank, so not exactly a big bio load.. for me it was safer to do a fishless cycle and have the new tank ready to take on a heavier bio-load without putting the fish through a number of mini-cycles.

Lets leave this poor chap alone now.. the fish will soon be in a new "properly cycled" tank.

Perhaps some comments on the photography would be nice.. after all, most people have been happy to moan (even if there was a reason to) but not comment on the reason for the thread..

Personally, i think the second photo was quite good for a first attempt.. as you said, the amount of green is a shame, but its a good first attempt.. not as blurry as most of mine

ok here is some tips on taking decent photos get a decent camera and in future if you going to post pictures be prepared to accept critisism especially if you already know what you doing is wrong you have to be extra special to still go ahead and post pictures if you know the fish is in the wrong place.

Hi,

I think your pics are great for a first attempt, i have to take loads to get a couple of good ones. The green tint actually looks ok.

This is the first time i've read this post and i can't believe how rude some people are on here. You'll soon realise it's generally the same people that criticise and the tanks they keep aren't perfect, some people should take a good look at their own tanks before abusing other people.

What do you plan on keeping in the 10 gallon when these fish upgrade?

Hi Emma,

Thanks for the nice words, thanks to flips and squid as well. The old tank will be used as a hospital or fry tank. I might start trying to grow some plant as well as I have never been able to keep anything with the mainganos. I lost count of the number of banana lily that I tried to establish unsuccessfully.

The green tinge is from the hood of the tank, it's an AA fish hotel all in one 10g.

Even with the green tinge, those are great shots. So is it the hood that is green? And how many watts of lighting do you have? Maybe adding a reflector inbetween the lights and the hood will get rid the green tint.

By the way, way to go on deciding to upgrade tanks!

don't worry, I've felt the wrath of the same person...
Some people don't understand that you only need to be told once.

But anyway, on the pictures, awesome job!! They are TONS better than all of the pictures i have taken, and I have taken hundreds.

Thanks for that fuman_chica, I'm going to have a play around on the weekend and see if I can get some better results. I only have a small pocket digital camera at the moment, so there is not a lot of settings that I can change, but I'll see if I can get some better light on the tank and maybe try get a couple of my empty tank that is cycling just so people know it exists.

I will update after Easter. Happy Easter everyone!!! (Or CHAG SAMEACH if that's your thing).

lol your still keeping the plec so u wont listen let alone be "told" and i knew the tank wasnt gonna be big enough before i started on about coldwater to you (who keeps 1 goldfish and a plec in a 80G+ tank) so my bitchin wasnt gonna go to waste.


oh and for the record. you 2 are the only people who have ever "felt my wrath", atleast one of yous doin something about it.
