| | Fish Keeper | Ahh, the satisfaction of a perfect pull. Don't you just love it when one quick dip gives you exactly 5ml?  |

| | Fish Keeper | Matt, you're a genius! That immediately made me think of all my syringes for medicating the kitties, but the biggest is 3cc. Still, maybe I will do that. Though I don't know, I kind of enjoy the dipping game. |

| | Fish Mentor | My daughter's guppies do that! That's why she has to pull her own water for tests. It makes me laugh because she jumps.
She gets so mad as well because I've been testing for a few months now, so I know the one drop game when it's just over 5ml and she always ends up pouring too much. |

| | Fish Keeper | I have a 12 ml measuring syringe and it does the trick. Takes less than 10 seconds but I guess it also takes out the fun of the pull and drip.  |

| | Fish Keeper | I use a dropper and add until I hit 5 mL. I'm not that good at the dipping game.
*edit* For those with small tanks, do you all ever worry about residue from the chemicals getting into the tank? I'm probably just paranoid, but it's just another reason I use a dropper. Last edited by harpua2002; July 6th, 2009 at 03:54 PM.
