WITH OVER 20 YEARS OF AQUARIUM AND SMALL PET EXPERIENCE I CAN HELP YOU WITH MOST ANY PROBLEM THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE REGARDING YOUR AQUARIUM,REPTILE,BIRD,RODENT,AMPHIBIAN OR SMALL MAMMAL NEEDS. MY BACKGROUND INCLUDES BEING AN AVID HOBBYIST NOW FOR OVER 25 YEARS AND HAVING OWNED A PETSTORE FOR EIGHT YEARS. I HAVE WORKED IN THE RETAIL AND WHOLESALE, DISTRIBUTION END OF THE PET INDUSTRY AND BELIEVE ME I HAVE LEARNED FROM HANDS ON EXPERIENCE. I AM DEFINITELY A "FAMILY" MAN AND CAN RELATE TO YOUR NEEDS IN THAT WAY ALSO. *****IF THE AVERAGE SALT WATER AQUARIUM (MARINE) ENTHUSIAST NEW ABOUT HOW MANY FISH DIED BEFORE EVER GETTING TO THE PET STORE THEN THEY WOULD PROBABLY RECONSIDER OWNING WILDCAUGHT MARINE FISH. MANY DISTRIBUTORS LITERALLY REQUIRE A GARBAGE DISPOSAL TO GET RID OF ALL THE DOAS. I KNOW I HAVE SEEN WITH MY OWN EYES ON NUMEROUS OCCASSIONS. I DO NOT HAVE A BUSINESS INTEREST OTHER THAN MY HELP LINE, I DO NOT PRESENTLY SELL PETS OF ANY KIND. ###########################################I CHARGE AN ANNUAL FEE OF $10.00 BILLED TO YOUR MAJOR CC.

DID YOU KNOW THAT MOST TROPICAL AND COLDWATER FISH (MARINE AND FRESHWATER) DIE IN AQUARIUMS BECAUSE OF BAD WATER QUALITY? FISH ARE EASY IF YOU UNDERSTAND THE NITROGEN CYCLE AND HOW IT WORKS IN A CLOSED ENVIROMENT LIKE AN AQUARIUM. FISH PRODUCE WASTE AND DECAYING MATTER IN THE AQUARIUM CREATE TOXIC AMMONIA. IN NATURE THERE ARE FAMILIES OF BENEFICIAL BACTERIAL ENZYMES WHICH DECOMPOSE THE TOXIC WASTE INTO LESS HARMUL NITRITE AND THEN INTO MUCH LESS TOXIC NITRATE. *****A NEW AQUARIUM LETS SAY FOR EXAMPLE OF 20 GALLONS FILLED WITH 10 OR MORE NEW FISH IS A DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN DUE TO THE WATER QUALITY NOT YET BEING BALANCED. FIRST OFF THE CHLORINE NEEDS TO BE REMOVED.SECONDLY, THE WATER NEEDS TO BE AT THE APPROPRITE TEMPERATURE FOR THE SPECIES OF FISH TO BE KEPT. TROPICAL FISH AVERAGE 76*F.,GOLDFISH AROUND 70*F. THE NEW FISH NEED TO FLOAT FOR A MINIMUM OF 15 MINUTES (FLOAT BAG HORIZONTALLY) THIS WILL REDUCE THERMAL SHOCK AND ADJUST BOTH THE BAG WATER AND THE AQUARIUM TO THE SAME TEMPERATURE. IF THERE ARE MORE THAN ONE FISH PER BAG MONITOR TO PREVENT SUFFOCATION. **************************************** NEXT ADD A BENEFICIAL BACTERIAL STARTER TO THE AQUARIUM WATER SUCH AS FRITZYME ,AQUATRONICS BACTER PLUS, HAGEN CYCLE,OR ANY OTHER PRODUCT WHICH SPECIFICALLY INTRODUCES THE BACTERIAL ENZYMES TO THE AQUARIUM.*******************************WITHOUT THESE BACTERIAL ENZYMES FAILURE IS USUALLY EMMINENT.THE FISH BEGIN PRODUCING WASTE ALONG WITH ANY UNEATEN FOOD, THE AMMONIA LEVELS SOON SPIKE,FISH THEN TURN RED BY GILLS,DIE SUDDENLY OR SWIM IN TIGHT CIRCLES AT THE SURFACE GASPING. DISEASE PROBLEMS USUALLY ENSUE. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@TO PREVENT THIS SETUP THE AQUARIUM IN ADVANCE, AND GRADUALLY , YES I SAID GRADUALLY ADD NEW FISH TO THE SETUP A FEW AT A TIME PER WEEK UNTIL THE AMMONIA,NITRITE, LEVELS ARE BALANCED WHICH USUALLY IS AROUND 40DAYS AFTER THE AQUARIUM IS FIRST SETUP. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ ADD FISH GRADUALLY USING HARDY SPECIES FIRST, AND PLEASE AVOID SCAVENGERS, ALGAE EATERS AND AQUATIC PLANTS DURING THIS PERIOD ALSO.@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

PETS -- LIVING THINGS NOT MATERIAL POSSESSIONS!

I HAVE BEEN IN THE PET INDUSTRY AND HAVE SEEN THE NEGATIVE CONCEALED SIDE OF THE BUSINESS. I WILL THEREFORE FROM THIS MOMENT FORWARD RECOMMEND TO FRIENDS GOOD PET ESTABLISHMENTS AND RECOMMEND CHANGES TO THOSE WHO SHOULDN'T REALLY BE DEALING IN LIVING THINGS SUCH AS THE BIG MASS MERCHANDISERS WITH ALL THAT $ THAT THEY COULD BE SPENDING ON THEIR ANIMAL DEPARTMENTS FOR TRAINING OF EMPLOYEES AND CARE OF THE LIVING THINGS IN THEIR CUSTODY. """"I CONSIDER MOST MASS MERCHANDISERS,SUPERSTORES THAT CARRY PETS TO BE OPEN DISPLAYS OF PET DISEASE AND ILL CARE IN GENERAL." MY LATEST WALK THROUGH A MASS MERCHANDISER THAT WILL REMAIN UNNAMED RESULTED IN SEEING 50 FANCY GUPPIES CRAMMED INTO A NEWLY SETUP 10 GALLON AQUARIUM WITH ONLY A POWERFILTER, THE WATER WAS ALREADY FOULDED AND COLMANARIS FUNGUS WAS RAVAGING THEIR BODIES, SEPTECEMIAS WERE BREAKING OUT ALONG WITH TAIL ROT.
