There were in there for about a week because of situations... EDIT* Oh yea, my friend has a 2.5 gallon guppy breeding tank with about 24 adults, and a bunch of babies Last edited by victimizati0n at 23-Jan-2005 08:10 |

That is the most horrible tank I have ever seen. At another horrible aquarium I saw a 100 litre tank (about) with about 200 guppies and platys and about 100 bumble bee gobies. The guppies had shredded fins and there was about 10 dead fish at the top, some had no tails the fungus and fin rot was so bad. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ]:|]:|]:|![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I guess that's possible... At work I once found a dead clownfish in the feeder goldfish tank. I have no idea how it got there... Probably another "funny" prank from one of the customers or one of the reptile people was trying to get fish again... ![]() I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash. |

Beefshank![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Enthusiast Posts: 246 Kudos: 141 Votes: 36 Registered: 30-Jun-2004 ![]() | In my very own house, a couple years ago, I had 80 goldfish in a 10gal tank!.......but I was actually saving them. My wife's bridal shower had bowls on the tables with about 5 goldfish each. At the end of the party, the host said she was gonna FLUSH the fish!! My wife loves animals, and wasn't about to let this happen. But the host wouldn't give up the bowls, not even for one night (I don't know why). So my wife collects all the fish in the various vases and glassware she got for the shower (lol). She show up at home with all these fish, but most are in the tall thin vases with almost no surface area. Unfortunetly, the store they came from was already closed. I had an empty 10 gal, so I had no choice but to put them ALL in it. (At the time, my only other tank was a 5gal with a betta, and as much as I wanted to spread the load, I wasn't gonna risk the betta's health). I pretty much did HOURLY water changes all night. Then returned them to the store in the AM. They ALL lived! But it was an AMAZING site. |
