Oi! Ok, my mother has been dishing out the questions for you guys to answer, so I finally gave her a notepad and asked her just to write down whatever came to mind that she was in need to know. She gave me back a nice little list of items she was concerned of, so once more I ask upon everyone's extensive knowledge to help her out ^^ Keep in mind these questions are taken exactly as she wrote them out.
1. My 1 foot plecos is forever squeezing himself into tight places and getting scrapes on his skin. They are not open sores and seem to heal rapidly. I have tried to keep all sharp edges out of the tank. What can I do?
2. I have anb overly aggressive red tail shark. I don't want to get rid of him. Any ideas on how to stop the bullying?
3. How do you measure a fish? I read somewhere you don't include the caudal fin. I need to know so I can approximate how many fish to put in my new tank.
4. Has anyone glued tank decorations to the bottom of the tank to prevent them from getting dislodged? Did it work?
5. When you paint the background on a tank, do you use paint specifically for glass or will any paint work?
6. I thought black skirt tetras would school. I have 3 but they don't seem to like each other. What experience have others had with this fish?
7. I like to keep about 1/2 of my tank without light for the shyer fish- is this a good idea?
(any misspelled words are my fault, not my mum's ^^ and thanks for yany help you guys and gals can give)
