    away mate😂👍 I wrote this at the start of the video didn’t realise you was having problems. I also have problems with acid reflux. I’ve had MRI scans the lot My problem is cysts I’ve got them in my liver also it’s scary when you’re having problems like this isn’t it, you’ll be alright mate the fish will keep you on an even keel Gives you something else to think about, and they’re very relaxing, are they not

  • @kieranhewitt8904
    @kieranhewitt8904 Рік тому

    I've always thought you had to get the water close to the same temperature before adding it to the tank, which is a pain when dealing with larger tanks, running straight off the tap and adding a water treatment straight in would be much easier. Doesn't it stress the fish, do you just let the heaters slowly bring it back up and do you have a lower limit where you don't let it drop below?

    Hi mate , great videos ,love watching them , question for ya , do you just add cold water to the tank if so how much does the temp drop by and any noticeable difference with the fish , thanks

    • @MicksFishUk
      @MicksFishUk  Рік тому

      Hey mate thanks for watching. Yes cold tap straight in only do like 50% don’t do any more. They get a little slower but only for a couple of hours and then they are fine my tanks got down to about 20-21. Also depends what fish you are keeping fish like discus may not like it

    • @leeholdcroft6006

      Hey mate thanks for reply , yeah I got american cichlids jd oscar firmouth green terror mccaw cichlid etc couple plecs green phantom, I'll give it a goi sick of changing from the outside tap to the kitchen tap for warmer water, just checking that this is even OK in the winter when colder water , thanks again for the reply look forward to ya next video , could do with access to some of them shops yiu go to but in isle of man so a bit difficult

    • @MicksFishUk
      @MicksFishUk  Рік тому +1

      No probs mate yes ween ur fish on to it start with 10% first week then %20 then so on mate do it slowly. Yes I couldn’t deal with that mate to much hard work getting it the right temp.

    Good luck with your op, reflux is normally just unpleasant ( i`ve had it for years ) but it can cause some pretty serious secondry issues so you`re doing the right thing getting it sorted, not worth taking chances where health is concerned.
    Have you had any issues keeping multiple Bichirs in 1 tank?, i`ve got 2 in a 7ft x 2 1/2 x 2 1/2, local shop has just had a large Ornatipinnis brought in by a customer very tempted but not sure if there will be problems with the other two.

    Mick I’ve had loads of ebjd’s . They are a pain in the Wallett . Over past 3 years I’ve had at least 12 and only 1 grew out to adult size . Weak genes so any stress kills them . If you have a spare small tank grow your remaining one in that on his own .
    Good luck with your Opp 👍
