Thanks all, great to be here.

Within the last few months my wife and son (5 year old) have expressed a lot of interest in the hobby. I'm not sure if it's because I put my interest in the hobby on hold or what. They were the ones that tried to maintain the tank. They even did a partial water change on their own! Over the...

Yeah I read about the heat treatment for the ich and if it turns out to be ich I'll go that route. I'll test the ammonia tonight, I just don't have much faith that it's an ammonia level issue. Thanks for the replies.

I have a new largish angelfish behaving abbynormally which has me concerned. Answwers to questions are below. 1~What type of fish is afflicted? In addition, please describe what is wrong with the fish to the best of your ability (i.e. cotton like growth, bloated, etc.). Largish Angelfish...

I watched the yoyos for several hours yesterday. Yes they are highly active fish. I did see one actually nip the veil of the large angelfish, but it's not like he was constantly doing it. The hyper activity of being buzzed by the yoyo's is adding to the stress for the angelfish though.

I've had three yoyos for several years. A few months ago, the wife got two smallish angels which ended up dieing within a week. I suspected it was the quality of the tank, stress, or other. We bought a LARGE angelfish, a medium angelfish and a small angelfish over the weekend. It appears that...

We litterally had thousands of snails in our 55 gallon. Three yo-yos cleaned them out in about 4 days. We never saw them eat a snail either, but hey. That was two years ago at least. They are still with us, eating flake food. I just had to do a tear down of the tank and though we lost two. The...

Hey all, not sure anyone remembers me but I was around a couple years ago. Needed to look up some stuff and came here first. I logged in and got a pop up. What did the pop up say? "We'd like to take the opportunity to wish you a happy belated 40th birth day." Not sure if that made me happy or...

:smilecolros: :smilecolros: That's great news. Don't take the surgery too lightly, as any surgery has risk, but be overwhelmed that it's not cancer. How soon til surgery?

I'm surprised a PII can handle XP. Sounds like it would be running slow. I like the recommendation of using it as a file server, if you have a network going at home or you want to set one up. That system would make a fine computer for someone who doesn't currently have one.

Thanks for the safety tip.

ok well, as a taxpayer I want to know why it's there? how far will that get me?

lol

But the rest of us aren't that far behind.... did we get off topic. I accept full blame. 8O

HEY WHAT's wrong with being born in the late 60's? :twisted:
