yes it is the ammonia from the fish poo that builds the nitrite level up.

its amazing how the tank can can reach a high poisonous level from clean water to then drop down and stabilize itself, with more fish crapping away would expect it to creep again but the culture within the filtration do balance it out

very big business is Koi and expensive

well last night at 3 in the morning a grey tabby skinny cat came meowing at the back door 12 days on the tiles and he has now finally come back

vets tomorrow for a check out but bar for a mark on his lip and being very skinny he looks fine

welcome home smokie

Very pleased for you, mate. Must be worth getting woken up at 3AM for.

Check him for boot marks, then take a close look at Bren's shoes at the match this aft!

if there's any they might be mine as for being woken at 3 it was the mrs I was still in a stooper

Chuff me i thought thats the last we would have heard of Smokie, dead chuffed he's returned.

Smokie's been on a 12 day bender - he's had the time of his life; milk, catnip and loose kitties - good lad!

This is Krum now at 10lbs, he's still got 3-4 more years of growing though! I'm hoping he gets another foot in length and 10lbs of weight extra.

that is one hell of a big puss dwarfs our smokie

Now I know who Hickey takes after

That's a massive pussy; not sure about the about the cat though.
