| | Fish Keeper | So sad you weren't able teach your friend the simple lessons about fish keeping I'm sure she wanted to keep such a big investment of fish. Were you also able to get the tank as well? Looks like quite a catch and for being stressed they look pretty nice.
Your much kinder then I am, I can barely take care of the fish I have and I'm retired. Everyone I have seen involved in animal rescue have their hands full. Quote:

| | Fish Master | Shawnie, I'll definetly take one of them  Just let me know when you are sure they are in good health and you are ready to send it. Since you can't sex them, I guess just pick out a cutie and save it for me  BTW, I am tearing down my African tank on the 27th when I move. Would around then be a good time to ship the Africans to you? If you need to wait longer, I can just put them in a QT tank until you are ready. Just lemme know. BTW, I am not upgrading my tank size like I originally thought, so I am re-homing all three of my red zebras. I know that at least one is a girl cause she is holding right now  |

| | Fish Keeper | Now if you were just to insulate those walls a bit, put electrics on an RCD unit all your space problems would be solved. Its a crime for nice tanks like those to sit round empty.
Oh have I caught Shawnie's Enabling bug there? |

| | Fish Master | Shawnie, the fish look great this morning. I am sure they are so much happier now that they are with you  What in the world are you going to do with all of those convict fry? You certainly have your hands full lady  Will your LFS take some of the baby cons off of your hands or can you sell them on craigslist? See what you really need at this point is a heated pond that you can just dump all of your extra fish into  |

My hubby would draw the line there. We ride all over and even in the rain sometimes but he would hate all that moisture on his bike. |

| | Fish Keeper | Sounds way too familiar. If we end up riding in the rain (that is never my choice by the way mother nature usually does that to us) he is out there after riding just cleaning to get every speck off. |
