VERY HOT SATURDAY

Made the decision to take the sand out of the fish tank and replace it with gravel , we should have used gravel in the first place.
We put the fish in to a plastic bucket with the heater whilst we totally emptied the tank then hosed it out IN the garden we cleaned the rocks and plants and washed the bog wood filter and its pads and ceramics then washed the new aquarium gravel  we went out and bought first thing this morning , then we  replaced and everything back in to the tank the end result is a crystal clear water.

We added more solution to dechlorinate the tap water and had to wait for the water to reach temperature again before adding the fish.

 All the fish survived and the little five Neon's are again  happily swimming around a very clean tank with very clean water and hopefully some bacteria.

This afternoon we went out and i bought four Diamond Tetra's  the scales of these fish shimmer and at night under the blue tank light will look like a totally different fish .We saw some beautiful Discuss they cost £25 each but the tank as to be set right and  running for at least six weeks before we add a couple of these,

I am working tomorrow Sunday today as been one of the hottest days so far this year , i had to go out to the chemist and buy some anti histamine tablets , as  my hay fever started up and is making life difficult usually these tablets do the job pretty fast within twenty four hours.

Helen has two readings tonight did one last night and had two people attending her class as well this week.

I need food last night for tea we had pancakes maple syrup  and ice cream today i have had a bacon in half a french stick with cherry tomatoes , a fish eats more than this ,  saying that fish and chips with scraps a large bread cake and carton of Chinese curry sauce with some rock salt thrown on the chips and a decent coffee sounds delightful.

Tumblr picture -  this mermaid looks stunning wonder where i can get one of these plus a open air tank .
