No I could get another fish Johnny. I think that fungus, or whatever it was, was mostly internal, inside my fish, by the time he died last night. I've cleaned everything, tank, filters, water, all is perfect far as I can tell right now. Just too late I guess re my fish. He seems to have been the main source for the fungus, I just wish I could have figured out the correct medication to cure him. No doubt he was old, but still I bet he'd have lived longer if I had been able to kill that crap. Blah.

Thing is, the fish I have left I also have had for 10 years, bought both of them at the same time. So no doubt I've learned that African Synodontis Catfish live quite a long time. So if I were to buy another one, which would probably be a youngun, I'd be 10 years into it. And the one I have won't live that long, so eventually said youngun I'd want a companion for, etc. etc. I'm just wondering how long I want to do the fish aquarium thing.

The water they live in is also of a high PH range, so I can't buy whatever I like in the pet store. Only so many things can live in those conditions. African Cichlids are one, but I had hundreds of them LOL, they love to breed LOL. And they can be aggressive sometimes. Maybe I'll buy one first, just a little yellow Cichlid, that never gets bigger than 2 inches. Of course then I'll think he is lonely and will want to get another Cichlid... LOL.

Oh lucky you Ilander! Getting up to 70 maybe tomorrow. We get rain and a high of 56 tomorrow, whooweee! [img]tongue.gif[/img] "They" say though Sunday might hit 70, and the week will be in the 70s beyond that, so we'll see. I sure hope so.
