Territoons said:did you read my earlier posts..about my 29 gallon springing a leak? And it was doing so WELL, too. Any advice for me as I do this the second time around? huma huma has been pretty helpful!
Territoons said:what about salt? The aquarium salt I put in my tank cured all of my ills..and my fish are happy. But...do I KEEP salt in my tank...throughout PWC's and a tank change?
Territoons said:ok. good to know. and as far as resealing the old tank, yes, I know that is an option, but that tank is tremendously old (35 years or so?) and it looks like I have resealed it in the past (poorly)...and I really don't like the mirror back...I don't like looking at myself when I am gazing at my fish. It takes away from the serenity of it all! I figure I can use the tank for something else. It is pretty. Maybe anole lizards, or hermit crabs, or fire belly toads. I want something active, and maybe colorful, and that can enjoy the height of the tank. I would really prefer NOT to have to house crickets..but mealworms are okay. Any ideas? This is for my preschool class.
And another reason I don't want to fix the tall tank is because I WANT a bigger tank for my fish!
Territoons said:haha! I have some REALLY nice bunnies for my preschoolers "fluffy fix". and this tank isn't big enough for guinea pigs. I suppose I could do mice...but I think that would drive my Jack Russel Terrier NUTSO!
Territoons said:wellllllll....new fishies.....FIRST I want my current fish to transfer over well. I've grown rather attached to them.
I for sure want some more glass catfish, since my one survivor looks very lonely, and even more so now that I don't have a mirror in his new tank!
another pictus cat, maybe? will they be okay with my red-tailed shark? all I have left are 4 mollies, 4 guppies,2 platies, the 4 iron clad I-can-survive-anything zebra danios and the lonely glass cat. And two mystery snails. and a shrimp or two.... what do you suggest?
