If you're really bored and looking for something new to try... may I suggest gravel vac'ing your tank and then putting all the fake plants and decor back in place with your NON-dominant hand!! Can you say painful!? :thud:
It was a gorgeous weekend here in Denver and my family spent the whole weekend in the yard getting a head start on our spring plantings... Well, wouldn't you know it, one of my rose bushes attacked me and left a large, deep slice in my right pinky finger. I had not yet done my weekly tank maintenance on my 125g and I did not want to let my sliced finger soak in tank water for an hour... so I did my entire tank maintenance with my left hand! It hurt, and now I have a headache too from looking into the tank from the "wrong way"... kinda like wearing someone else's prescription eye glasses.
Try it sometime! Or DON'T! It's not pleasant!

Wow...I never thought of them doing that!! Of course I never aspired to have piranhas. Check out the really long vet gloves..the ones they have for..er..doing things to cows, they go a long way up your arm. Maybe that would protect your arm while vaccuming.

Naw, I'm not a Broncos fan... I'm not a fan of any sport unless I can actually go to the event... and then I'm just there to people watch and drink beer! My husband calls me his "favorite waste of a good ticket!" :D
Hubby is a rabid Cowboys fan... we enjoy attending our friends Bronco parties mainly to stir things up!
:cool:

Well, I was being stupid...A plant got knocked into their cave, went to move it and suddenly felt one of them nudge me....I thought that was all that happened...I think they were just testing what I was with their mouth...It was very, very minor and didn't hurt much but I felt betrayed at first lol I didn't know any better
