Fish Husbandry

Have changed 2 buckets of water and used the bacterial infection control medicine in the fish tank.

The fish are looking "chirpier" already - No that's wrong, fish can't look "chirpy" - how about "bloopier"?

Odin swam about a bit and settled down at the bottom of the tank again. He comes out now and again. Doesn't look great, but at least he survived the night, and looks a bit better than he did yesterday.

Have to wait 4 days for the medicine to do it's stuff, before applying any more.

I've also renewed the filter-pad on the air-filter (although I did have to buy a pad for another brand of air-filter and cut it down to size, since they didn't stock one that fitted my 'Tetratec' air filter.

Spent 23 quid on fish medicine, air filter pads, water quality indicator strips and a new book on goldfish husbandry.
