So_Very_Sneaky Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 3238 Kudos: 2272 Votes: 201 Registered: 10-Mar-2004	I have a young Dojo Loach whom I believe is not too bright... this is the 4th time he has sat on the heater and burned himself, and not the worst time. Hopefully he will heal up again in the next few days! I wish he would learn not to sleep on the heater!! [/font] Come Play Yahtzee With Me! http://games.atari.com Http://www.myleague.com/yahtgames

Wondering if someone doesn't make a protective sleeve that can be placed around the heater to keep fish from getting up against it? Water, taken in moderation, cannot hurt anybody. -- Mark Twain

Poor thing he must be a bit dumb like you say. Here is a picture of the gaurds we can get here they cover the hole heater so that nothing can touch it or slip through any holes anywhere. tessa38uk attached this image: http://www.greenspersonalprinting.com/

jase101 Big Fish Posts: 345 Kudos: 273 Votes: 1 Registered: 06-Jul-2004	i couldn't agree more with the previous statement - i grew up on a big farm out west and we had one particular goat (which are, despite what people think, very intelligent animals) who would shuffle around at feeding time and occasionally rub her rear end against the electric fence - but instead of lose her place at the trough, she would continue eating with these 3-second interval bleats of pain!

tiny_clanger Fish Guru Posts: 2563 Kudos: 571 Votes: 12 Registered: 17-Sep-2002	depending on the heater size, I could ship you a set from the UK. They cost about £2, the problem would be postage ------------------------------------------------- I like to think that whoever designed marine life was thinking of it as basically an entertainment medium. That would explain some of the things down there, some of the unearthly biological contraptions

houston Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003	Bad Boy had the same problem, except he kept wanting to spawn with his heater, and without his heater his tank would just get too cold in tha apartment...so I know the feeling of having a fish that is just plain stupid...
