Re: "I'm very nervous about using it " (none / 0) (#7)

It would definitely be a gloves and goggles thing!

We got a whole 8mm (about 1/3 of an inch I think) of rain which had dried up by lunchtime the next day with the hot dry winds. Unc there isn't any grass, brown or otherwise, to throw anything on really ;)

I did water changes on Wednesday and added carbon and on Thursday two more fish were dead that definitely hadn't been ill in any way the day before. That's both my juvenile blue tailed males gone :(  I love the blue tails but all the ones born here seem to die young. I dont' know how I actually end up with blue tailed fry as I would have thought their genetics would have died out long ago.

I think I'll end up having to start again fresh with guppies using one of my spare tanks that hasn't been used in many months and using something to decontaminate the water. I'm pretty disappointed b/c I will be visiting my favourite petshop next week (for saltwater stuff) where the guppies, although few in number, always look extremely healthy and my q tank would have been spare. The q tank is still housing the last of the fry who are big enough to go in with adults but seem to not be affected so far so I've sort of left them in reverse quarantine.
