thank you for help never had this befor, to behonest this is the first proper tank i have done.

this is nail bitting

 

[hughessomefish]

haha don't worry relax you will learn from this she will drop eventually,just it may seem like forever camping out like this,read a book or something look up every so often,she can have from any where to 15-50 i really haven't figured out a way to tell till they drop.

 

[salts155]

my tank is big enough for her to have 50 what will i do with them if she does. will a lfs buy them

beats watching the snow done that most of the day ha ha.

 

[hughessomefish]

o thats right i was just reading bout the snow storm in the Uk i live in the us and i am sick as a dog typeing away and well should be doing hw but idk if i am up to school tommrow but idk time will tell ,mostly they will take them for nothing or give you like a few pennys here in the us,but if you take them to an auction then maybe you could sell like a pair for a dollar sorry i am not very up to date on how much that is in euros but i am very up to date on my metric system
