i started reading your comments from the top of this page and it sounds so funny b/c unless you go back and read the page before it sounds like you ladies are talking about something completely different from logs.:lol::dunno:

i was lmao....addy was talking about big ones???

rotfl i just did the same thing!

Glad you found the problem and no holes. Seems as tho a lot of the time it is the waterfall that causes the headaches but you can fix it by little tweaks here and there til you get it just right. Sorry about the ick and hope the salt helps them so you don't lose any of your precious fishes.

Yeah I always look at the stream or waterfall before I worry about the liner. Usually that is where the problem is.

So glad you found it, and good luck with the possible ich.

[fishin4cars]

Pet Ms. Aggie on the head and tell her good plant, ???? Or should we tell her bad plant so she will leave it alone?:lol:

 

[j.w]

That lily is lovely sissy, so delicate looking. Hoping Aggie behaves herself. Maybe give her some watermelon to keep her occupied or a muzzle :lol:

 

[sissy]

LOL I gave her some blueberries I picked this morning and hope that helps some and just picked 2 baskets of strawberries ,so she can have some of them later ,that is if I don't sit here and eat them all .
