Swimmy's life span.

[blackiehugehand]

How long? I'm guessing 19 days. He will do something stupid I'm sure, like use a dirty coffee cup to change the water or feed him people food. Or boil it by accident.

I can't remember. Did he say what kind of fish he is? I'm assuming goldfish.

<p>That's right about the air. Most experts recomend 10 gallons per fish. I don't go that crazy. I've got a 10 gallon for 2 fish. After 3 years, though, they're getting a bit big for it.</p><p>Dave... If you don't want to risk any more dead fish, I can make a video of Ronfish and Fezfish, so you can just watch that on a loop.</p><p><img src="http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y229/snowmaninva66/DSCN0712.jpg" border="0" width="450" height="327" /></p><p>BTW... the pic is about a year old. Ronfish (on the right) is almost as big as Fezfish now.</p>

<p>The PC connection should replace Swimmy with Bitey.</p><p><img src="http://www.gofishingworldwide.co.uk/Images_gfw/barracuda.jpg" border="0" width="297" height="192" />&nbsp;</p>

<p>It's also not as simple as just plopping them in tap water, or using regular tap water when changing the water.&nbsp; You first have to make sure that&nbsp;the&nbsp;new water is the same temperature as the water the fish is already in or the shock can kill him.&nbsp;&nbsp;Then, you need to treat the tap water before the fish can go in it.&nbsp; Regular water from the tap contains chlorine and other chemicals that makes it safe for us to drink but will kill fish.&nbsp; That's why if you're starting a new tank you need to run the filter for a couple of days before even adding the fish.&nbsp; At the very least you need to use these&nbsp;drops that they make in order to&nbsp;&quot;treat&quot; the tap water.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

Don't forget about suicidal goldfish, they just jump out of their bowls.
