I wake up at seven or eight every day

I have to or I'd be left at home

How are those fish looking?

 

[Nicola]

They are going good.. they only just woke up too

as i opened my curtains and turned the lamp on next to them lol fed em and dosed their tank with stability.

 

[Delta2 23]

Do you get fish flakes? We had to feed ours these pink and orange flaky things... they'd eat off our fingers sometimes

 

[Nicola]

i bought them tropical fish granules.. http://www.thereefshop.com.au/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=16_27&products_id=226 that stuff... was the smallest and cheaper containter there... no way was a buying a huge one!

I've always wondered about sinking granules, it's interesting how the fish manage to tell them apart from small brown pebbles

(Although my fish ate the pebbles too from time to time )

 

[Nicola]

hmmmmmmmmmm think im gonna ask mum if she will b able to buy a light for the tank..

 

[Delta2 23]

Is that like with baby chicks, they need some heat?

 

[Nicola]

No they have a heater, its so they have some light, all they are getting is a tiny amount of sunlight and light from a lamp in my room, as my room doesnt get direct sunlight, it faces the wrong way.

 

[Delta2 23]

So they can see those little granules, I suppose

My room's the same way, it faces the south and is always freezing. brrr
