I have a cold, will this hurt the fish?

I caught a cold yesterday and I just did a water change. Will my cold hurt the fish?

even if my hands came in contact with the water?

NO, not under ANY circumstances will your cold hurt your fish.

Have you seen those plexi-glass sheilds at salad bars?

Just don't cough anything in the tank --- to be on the safe side.. LOL

It's impossible for a fish to catch the common cold.

If your fish catch a cold just pour some cough medicine in at 1/2 dose.

LOL

JUSK KIDDING!!! Fish cannot catch our illnesses of any kind.

Actually, I thought it was a good question, though.

Yeah I never thought about that before-interesting. Think we can catch anything from the fish??...

aquariumfishguy · Nov 18, 2003

Yes, you can. TB comes to mind. I know someone who caught TB from their fish tanks. I never caught it but I had TB in my tanks back in the mid-90's and it was a big issue for me.
