    Best Fish Courier?

    Live animals and Fish are two different things it seems. I have had royal mail deliver fish as well as APC, even with "Live Tropical Fish - Handle with Care" Stickers. I also work at the airport and unload both Royal mail and Parcel force cargo planes which regularly contain live fish. I'd...

    Am I asking the impossible? Fancy goldfish.

    Get rid of the fancy goldfish? :lol: Prob like you suggested some plants on wood, but since there gonna be living in cold water (I think that's correct) then your limited with your plants too. Good luck!

    OMG Invaders -ID - Drone Fly Larvae

    OMG Invaders from Beyond the Void :sick: I used to get these all the time! They have large tails that reach the surface and allow them to take in air. Very cool and if I remember rightly the goldfish like em too.

    Something else to think about!

    WHEN that happens that's going to be the least of our worries, be easily the end of most technology and living on the surface of the earth for a few 10's of years I should imagine.

    What's the BIGGEST mistake you've made?

    On second thoughts... the Biggest mistake I've made was using DIY yeast Co2 mix, went to work came home to find the dog sleeping next to the bottle on its side and the tank full of Yeast and dead fish. Everything but the Clown Plec and the Corys died :/ Guess they don't like alcohol and Sugar!

    Just my little survey (for those with opti-white tanks)

    to be quite honest id take the extra silicone and the peace of mind over 200litres of water all over my floor! And really how many people come and see out tanks, look at the silicone and say...hmm thats shoddy! If the Plants and fish aren't captivating them, then were not doing our jobs right!

    Want to set up a display tank in your LFS?

    I got 2 of each posters on stickyback so there easy to mount £8 for the 4 and the 100 glossy 1 sided leaflets where about £20ish. Worth it to look professional it's nice to give back to a forum and hobby that's done so much for me.

    I doubt they can hold you liable as that would mean I could go on holiday and send you a brick in a box marked £2000 and you'd have to pay handling on that! Lol
