Lime!

"Dinosaur eels" (senegal bichirs) are neither dinosaurs nor eels, and a 10g gallon tank is far too small to keep them in. This is a more pressing issue than lime accumulation.

They're rather placid as well...the idea that they'd jump out of a tank to attack a human being certainly sounds more like fishfiction than fishlore to me.

I know that Dinosaur eels are bichirs. The only reason I have them in a ten gallon tank is because my 20 is being used at the moment and I haven't gotten my 80 gallon in yet. Maybe I need to post a video of my Dinosaur eels jumping up to attack anyone that is close to or above the tank. They also attacked a fish that was double their size and killed it. They are not suppose to attack any fish that are large then they are mine was a lot larger then they.
 
I live in one of those green Ultra Hard Water Areas. I always thought my water was rather soft because it always tested a kH between 3 and 4 but I do get lime deposits in my kettle ... Never tested the gH but I would assume it is high.
 
hmm has anyone noticed how jester doesnt have any posts... yet i see one here.... or is my comp acting up agian???

Any post in the General Forums does not raise your post count so he could talk all he wants here and keep his 0 post count until he posts in some of the fish forums.
:OT: Really? Why do they do that? I've never heard of a forum that did that.
 
I assume it is because people tend to view their post counts as a status symbol. Maybe it makes them feel more senior since they have 1000 posts instead of maybe 200. I don't know. People might have spammed the general forum in an attempt to raise their post counts so the admins turned that off. This is all speculative. I have read people being debunked on what they said because they only have 10 posts and that is the reason I came to this conclusion.
