Hey,

Okay, thanks. Now I feel sort of guilty about not doing weekly water changes.
<--me. So, once a week, even if I got 4 more danios? Or would there be twice a week water changes? More? Please answer!

If you got more danios, it would still be once a week, but if you want you can do twice a week coz' it's better for your fishies!

Post a new thread on this board about it. We have several 29gal tanks at school (I basically run them) and they look great! It really depends on what fish you put in it.

Hi everyone!

Sorry I haven't posted in soooo long. I was away on holiday with my family, we went to Myrtle Beach! It was FUN! So I think it's decided, I'm getting 2 more zebras and 2 leopards ( I didn't want to get more leopards than zebras, cuz the leopards might eat all the zebras! LOL!) I'll get them this week, and post pics! I'm not too sure how to, so maybe Hatchet or someone else can give me some help!

Thanks!!!!

I'm so excited to get my new fishies!!!

~Ali (who is VERY excited)

I'm not an expert at cameras to computers (My dad does it), but I believe there is a cable to attatch to the PC, and the pics are then on the PC. Then, post something but click 'Manage attatchements' under the post text and the rest is selfe explanatory. I think...

Hi,

Turns out when I went to my LFS, they didn't have any zebras or leopards in stock, and they're getting some this Monday. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to wait. When I post pictures, I'll attach a link to my album, and then you guys can clicky on it when I post the pics.
Sorry to keep you waiting.

AHHH!!

I haven't had enough time to go to the LFS, so I still haven't gotten the danios. I'll probably start a new thread on the danios once I get them!

You guys were great in all the suggestions!

Thanks!

Guess what guys, I got them! but I have one problem. He gave me FIVE fish instead of FOUR!!!!!!!!!!! What should I do!?!?!?! I don't really want to take it back, and I don't have anyone to give it to. Should I just keep it, and keep up the water changes? Or do you have any better suggestions!?! PLEASE HELP!

Thanks!!!!

Thanks for replying so quickly, Gilbert.

Yes, I guess I am pretty lucky getting a free fish, but I was just a bit worried if I was over-stocking my tank a little. I probably should keep on top of the water-changes I guess then, right?

i dont think that one fish will make a whole lot of difference in your tank... your perfectly fine, you probably dont even have to up the water changes.

If you are talking about 1 neon - it shouldn't be a problem! Just keep up the water changes like you do anyway.
