Home for Christmas

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 19:28:01 -0500

I’m home for Christmas :) This year we have a very thin tree :( the livingroom doesn’t feel very
christmassy this year I suppose because normally the tree is so big
you can’t actually get in the room.

Still I shall fix this by covering everything in super tacky tinsel
when my mums not looking :)

Not everything you find on ebay is cheaper!

Wed, 09 Dec 2009 16:49:12 -0500

I bought a heater from ebay and after a month it arrived - yay. After a day its broken - nay. Now either Rosie is very strong, or its a cheap heater. I’d rather pay £15 for one that works - wouldn’t you!?

Not to worry though, I should have my dividers tomorrow and I can fill up the new tank with the cycled water from my water change on the 60l tomorrow :D All I need is gubbins for the filter :) I bought some super fine white sand, its like clouds but in water!

I leave you with some photos of the birds in the garden :D I couldn’t catch the woodpecker :(

Rosie

More fish tanks - they are temporary though mind :D When I get my tank dividers for the 30l knuckles and clipper are going in there and little Rosie is going in the 60l. :)

And here is little Rosie, my first female. Shes only about an in and a half. I hope to breed her with clipper in a few months :)

Clipper

Clipper is doing really well. Soon I will have a new tank for him as I’m planning on dividing a 30 liter tank I have for him and Knuckles, then I can start my guppy collection!
This is 11 days of growth.
