Regular Member TikiLola Posted March 16, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted March 16, 2014 (edited) Hi Mikey, I was just wondering if your fish pet store has Duckweed? We may be coming down Saturday and my daughter has found that her goldies looove the stuff. lol Edited March 16, 2014 by TikiLola 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member yafashelli Posted March 16, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted March 16, 2014 I think the plant tank in that shop might have some in the top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member number20121 Posted March 16, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted March 16, 2014 Just make sure to keep some of the duckweed separate from the goldfish to make it grow. Under the right conditions it will multiply quickly, providing a steady source of food for the goldfish to be fed in addition to whatever else their diet is. A shallow tub with old goldfish tank water in a sunny spot will work wonders. You might want to do water changes on that tub to keep feeding the duckweed with the nutrients from the tank goldfish tank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member TikiLola Posted March 16, 2014 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 16, 2014 They have a little deck on their apartment, do you think they could grow duckweed in a container pond when it gets warmer out? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member TikiLola Posted March 16, 2014 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 16, 2014 Do you/they get duckweed? If so, let me know the next time. My daughter comes down once or twice a month usually. Do you do tank testing there like at Petsmart/Petco? I think I might not be reading my results correctly. Thought you could take a look. I cold bring my test kit along. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do it for free and it's more acurate then most chain stores since they usually are lazy and use strips instead of the drops.

Regular Member Mikey Posted March 28, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted March 28, 2014 Okay! let's try and plan ahead. as of now, I'm not needed for work next Saturday so I should be good and I can drive to my LFS if my mom Is home and she can come in and talk. (She is rarely in ) and you are going to be so mad at yourself for being busy this weekend, We got some cuties in Tuesday and some more tomorrow! they will probably be there next week as we don't sell many fancy goldfish. Mainly they just pass away in our tanks. :/ we think it's how they are treated before hand and we just don't have the adequate space to have just a goldfish QT tank. We barely have room for a 15 gallon sick tank there is one fish that stands out to me... A beautiful Ryukin! He is a definite make with thick pecs and breeding stars and a cute red back and a baby ranchu with a slight tail deformation. I got a video of them let me upload it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Mikey Posted March 28, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted March 28, 2014 I'm gonna warn you! ruby is a biter and hisser! It doesn't hurt but it can be startling if you don't know it's coming. she only lets me hold and cuddle her. She is a very very very strange bird.

Hi there!!!!! ...On a side note I want a panther chamelon...I think Elisa said there was a reptile section on this forum so I think I'm gonna hop over there and check out stuff on chamelons lol I can get you all the info you need if you come in to my pet store this Saturday! My two co workers are experts on reptiles and dogs and such. My one had a veil tail chameleon I believe and it needed surgery and she paid for it too. Something about his rectum falling out or something and I think ultimately he passed due to kidney cancer. The vet said since he knew how well she took care of it, he would do an autopsy for free. He also wanted to know himself! That is seriously how well she took care of it Right now, she has a 9'x3' turtle tank, 3 bearded dragons, (2) 8.5' Colombian Redtail Boas, 1 red nose? pit, and a pit/lab mix. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
