SHARKS!

[jimmy teabags]

hello out there

well i think i have gone a bit mad!

1st off, i got 4 sliver sharks, 5 neons and 1 pec (spelling)

then i thought i would get a red tail shark, a gold shark,a angelfish and 6 female guppies and 2 males

the angel fish died and so did a guppy so i took them back and there would not excahnge for any other fish so i had to get the same

3 neons have gone missing, a guppy was died before i left the house and the sliver sharks swim mad around the tank

have i mixed the tank wrong

also i have snails in there too, only little ones but were did there come from?

 

[OohFeeshy]

Tank size?

 

[Macracantha]

That's what Silver Sharks do!.......

'swim mad around tanks!!!'

What is the tank size?

 

[OohFeeshy]

Well anyways, you need a very large tank for silver sharks. They get to over a foot each. Plec is probably a common, again over a foot. In all, you have the worst choice possible, as I find it unlikely your tank is the size needed for tese fish.

 

[jimmy teabags]

4ft by 4ft

I agree with OohFeeshy,

You need a big tank for the fish you are keeping.

A long time ago when I got my first tank (late 70s) I had Neons, 1 angle fish, guppies, and algea eaters. I went to the LFS and saw a Red Tailed Black Shark, COOL, bought it. It ATE everything but the Angle, never did that again!

 

[jimmy teabags]

BUGGER wot a fook up!
