    Yep I'm happy I took the opportunity. The best thing is that I can maintain the fish right now, since i was the first person that took advantage of the flyer hanging in the school :)

    Re: 2 big fish tanks

    Well today school started again,, We've had vacation as you might've noticed in one of my posts..

    Something terrible happened. The heater in one of the tanks (currently filled with guppy's) started floating and electrocuted the water 5 fish died and all the electricity was out for the whole week.. Exept for the fish a rabbit was in bad condition (we're curing it right now) and most animals we're shocked. We inmidiatly did water changes on every tank that has water (turtle ,fish tanks and 2 of the empety fish tanks that are for a project with the goldfish from other last years) Since they were all ice cold.. I helped another lesson as I asked my teacher permission to help with it there since they only have 2 man and it wouldnt be done today since I couldnt come after school (it's my mums bday so she wants me home (me to).. Tomorrow we're going to finish the job..


    And then the second thing We ordered paint for the rocks of the vivarium we're building. We only got 1/20 of the paint we ordered but we paid for all of it. We emailed them and got the response that they wont give anything.. The school is going to sue the company that sold us the paint

    Re: 2 big fish tanks

    Wow, sorry to hear about the animals! You'll have to let me know how their doing over the next few days.
    As for the company that didn't send all the paint the school can easily report it IF they used credit card (I've had similar happen a few times in dealing with Ebay), but thankfully after my credit card company investigated it they found I wasn't making it up and refunded all of my money.

    Re: 2 big fish tanks

    The're busy with it right now. I think I'll be helping about 2 hours tomorrow If I dont have anything to do. Most animals are fine as it seems right now. Though one of the lobsters is eating really bad.
