So if you ever find yourself looking for work you may have a future in the aquatics department at Petgoods. <br />It turns out Roddy #1 was not really a goldfish, but rather some kind of feeder fish. He told me that those are what they usually give out at carnivals. And they don't really last that long. Roddy #2 is actually a goldfish. He looks nothing like Roddy #1, but Chase bought my story of how sometimes they get bigger and change colors. He told me he hopes that he changes back. He's quite impressed with Roddy #2's tail and fins. He has started calling him Roddy the Rockstar so I think the crisis has been avoided for now. We will definitely consult with you for any other issues. Let's hope this guy lasts more than a week!!Mrs. Poopnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18602421.post-7864427471458497382011-03-28T20:37:34.801-04:002011-03-28T20:37:34.801-04:00I'm sorry.

There are drops called "tap water conditioner" which remove/neutralize harmful stuff for fish. Put water in a cleaned out gallon milk jug, treat it, and let it sit for a day before using it.<br /><br />2-change the water every week or 2, because without a filtration system, it can get dirty and/or deoxygenated, or have it's PH levels thrown off with too much crap etc. Just take out half with a siphon and replace with treated water, room temperature.<br /><br />3-when placing a new fish in there, you should keep the fish in the bag they gave you, and put the whole thing in the water so that it gradually reaches the same temperature of the water in the tank already. Fish can die of shock from big temperature swings.<br /><br />Email me if you have questions. It's embarrassing how hardcore I was into this stuff from like 6th-8th grade.tonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18602421.post-2819790974003127072011-03-28T13:21:04.544-04:002011-03-28T13:21:04.544-04:00Yikes.
