I have torn a muscle in my back just under my shoulder blade, the slightest thing is painful, hubby collected another tank this morning (so greatful my buddy was here to do the lifting :good: ). Its not the pain in my back thats the agony though, its the tank sitting there begging to be cleaned and set up and my fish looking longingly at their new bigger home :-(
 
What happens now on water change day.

Sorry, beg my pardon. Water change week.

Sorry, beg my pardon. Water change month.

Sorry, beg my pardon. Water changes, period.

Owww, i hope your back to full strength soon :) Nightmare isnt it, just when you get a new tank. Its sitting there teasing you. This isnt helping is it :lol:
 
Your welcome, Im sure my back will recover...........someday :lol: My eldest helped your hubby move my new one in, dont think I could have done two in a day :blink:

James, the list is pinned to the kitchen cabinet with each water change and what tank on which day etc etc, if things get too bad, I may just have to take my python over and do them all for her, well lets face it, one of the big tanks has all my fish in it anyway, least I could do :good:
 
Water change due on one of the 400d's tonight, water out is easy with a pump gravel vac etc, filling up is going to be down to my poor put upon hubby who has shifted tanks around already today. Worst part is its the begining of the month all the filters get done this week :crazy:

Minxy I would have been well stuffed without you today :blush:
 
You'd have been stuffed!! Hell I wouldnt have a new tank ready to set up without both of you today, I could get used to the tank collection service, wonder where we can send your put upon hubs next? :lol: ;)
 
I think those nice true parrots & diadema are still available in exeter :lol:

I think he would say one little word if I asked......


Divorce :lol:

OMG I have a problem. I have managed to turn the lights on in the tank behind the new one, but all my fish food is in the cabinet and I cant reach it!!!!!
 
LMAO, give them some of the other food on one of the other tanks, there is prima on the 400 in the kitchen and some cichlid pellets if memory serves :lol: Just kinda throw it in and hope some reaches them.
 
Yes I remembered that after I had posted :lol: just managed to squeeze between the tank and the bird cage and had to literaly throw left handed food into the 260, was quite a good shot, the rest I can vacuum up when I move the tank :lol:
 
Lol.

agony indeed !

What's going in the new tank ?


Rotkeils & ??? undecided at the mo :lol:



Well I took heaps of painkillers and cleaned up the tank, discovered I cant run 2 filters without hacking away at the lid, so need to do some media swapping aroung.! oh fun
 
Lucky your husband suports your hobby like that and gets the tanks for you. I have to get all my tank my self he just helps me move them my father inlaw had to help me with they last tank I got.

Sorry you hurt your self i hope you have a nice python to clean your tanks.
 
Ah, hope your shoulder heals soon! I did something similar years ago, and sorry to say it still flares up occasionally even now.

What are you putting with the Rotties? My babies are growing really well, and really colourful for juvies :)
