Goldfish

The danger of too much salt is high blood pressure, it can causes you to retain fluid and can lead to swelling (edema). If you have symptoms of heart failure, yes to much sodium can cause death due to high blood pressure and fluid retention. I have witnessed this happen to my boyfriend, who died at age 45 from a massive heart attack, with pulmonary edema due to too much sodium.

Despite common mythology, Goldfish have a memory span in excess of 3 months and can distinguish between shapes an colour. Some goldfish are even able to learn tricks.

As the fulfillment of a fish's dreams are not communicable to humans, there is no point questioning whether a fish is feeling depressed. However, if you do find yourself asking the question, then interpret it as a reflection of guilt you may be feeling for mistreating a living creature (which was originally meant to be for your enjoyment) and make any necessary amendments to the way you look after your pet. With great power comes great responsibility!

If you are losing water in your tank, it is probably because of evaporation. No matter if you have a fish bowl or a fish tank, if it's in direct sunlight, the water's gonna evaporate. Another way you could be losing water is something called "fish intake". Most fish absorb water through their skin, and they replace it with their... bodily fluids. And most of what the fluids are is carbon dioxide and other things that take the place of water. Now there's more air in there and less water. Hope you find this useful!

P.S.-- If you find that the water is lower because of fish intake, add a bit of water IMMEDIATELY!!! The lack of water means lack of oxygen. Your fish could suffocate!

P.P.S-- On that cheerful note, good-bye!

Depends on where exactly it is situated in your loft. What you must remember it will be taking up space in the loft which is why you are looking for a loft conversion in the first place.

First thing is to call in a few loft conversion specialists to take a look and they can best advice you when on site.

Well, you could touch him, but that's not reccomended. Most likely your fish it dead, or sleeping. I've never heard of a fish playing dead.

Usually a goldfish will live to be 1 month to a year but sometimes some goldfish live to be 3 years old others are even more lucky that they can live to be over 20
a gold fish can live for 3 weeks........................................................................................................................... O.o they live a lot longer than 3 weeks. If that is how long yours are living then you are definitely doing something wrong. The longest living goldfish was 43 YEARS old. Putting them in a bowl shortens there life considerably but you still get a few years out of it.

In China, then they went to Korea, Japan, and Europe. They were bred from wild types of carp, around 960-1279 AD .

Here is a bit more information for you in addition to what someone typed above!

The Goldfish, Carassius auratus, was one of the earliest fish to be domesticated, and is still one of the most commonly kept aquarium fish and water garden fish. A relatively small member of the carp family, the goldfish is a domesticated version of a dark-gray/brown carp native to East Asia. It was first domesticated in China,960-1279 and introduced to Europe in the late 17th century. Goldfish can grow to a maximum length of 23 inches (159 cm) and a maximum weight of 9.9 pounds (4.5 kg), although this is rare; few goldfish reach even half this size. The oldest recorded goldfish lived to 49 years, but most household goldfish generally live only six to eight years, due to being kept in bowls. The collective noun for a group of goldfish is a "troubling."

In 1162, the Empress of the Song Dynasty ordered the construction of a pond to collect the red and gold variety of those carp. By this time, people outside the imperial family were forbidden to keep goldfish of the gold (yellow) variety, yellow being the imperial color. This is probably the reason why there are more orange goldfish than yellow goldfish, even though the latter are genetically easier to breed.

During the Tang Dynasty, it was popular to dam carp in ponds. As the result of a dominant genetic mutation, some of these carp displayed gold (actually yellowish orange) rather than silver coloration. People began to breed the gold variety instead of the silver variety, and began to display them in small containers.

The fish were not kept in the containers permanently, but would be kept in a larger body of water, such as a pond, and only for special occasions at which guests were expected would they be moved to the much smaller container.

The occurrence of other colors was first recorded in 1276. The first occurrence of fancy tailed goldfish was recorded in the Ming dynasty. In 1502, goldfish were introduced to Japan, where the Ryukin and Tosakin varieties were developed.In 1611, goldfish were introduced to Portugal and from there to other parts of Europe. Goldfish were first introduced to North America around 1850 and quickly became popular in the United States

The Shubunkin goldfish was developed by Japanese goldfish breeders that wanted to create a brightly coloured goldfish that still had the physical strength and survival skills of the common goldfish. Shubunkins are the result of selective crossings between Comet goldfish and Calico Fantail goldfish.

You can protect your plants from frost by using a plant cover. This could be as simple as an old bed sheet or you can purchase specially made covers just for plants. There are covers for individual plants or you can get long sheets to cover a row of vegetables in the garden. Garden Harvest Supply has a good selection for your different plant protection needs.

It means the Fish could be blind in that eye or it could just be the way it was born

It is quite possible that you have a water quality issue and need to change at least 50% of the water in your tank, or your goldfish is showing early signs of Hole in the Head; you can get medicine to treat this at your local fish store.

Betta fish do not enjoy currents that come from filters. You could put in a filter but I would recommend not to. Also, Heaters are unnecessary as long as you keep the water 70-80 degrees.

It is commonly thought that goldfish have a memory of around 3 seconds. This is incorrect. In experiments they have been shown to hold memories for at least three months.

I am unaware of the origin of the 3 second theory . -

The least popular animal in the US and perhaps in the world is a snake. Although snakes are often kept as pets, more people are afraid a of snakes than any other animal. Snakes can startle you and are cold and perceived to be slimy. Additionally, all snakes can bite, and some are extremely poisonous. Snakes have their admirers, but by and large most people would rather avoid them.

Elephants have large brains which increases their memory capacity. An elephant's memory can last for a pretty long time. Some even say an elephant never forgets.(10 years)

The male will kill the female after he spawns her. If she won't spawn he will still kill her. No male Betta will allow another Betta (male or female) to live in its vicinity. So the answer is NO.

It is reported that they loose colour if kept in a low light situation for a good length of time.

The skeletal system of a goldfish is made up of small bones and cartilage, but it does not have hardly any bigger bones, and it is hard to tell how many there are. There are 3 main muscles in the muscular system.

bigger fish

A male has more of a V shaped tail. A female has more of a U or a rounded V and

First if your comets are not at least 2 years of age, they won't breed.

Males vent openings are concave or sunken in while the females vent opening is convex or poking out. The males have firmer dorsal fins and are more streamline than the females. The females are heavier in the abdomen area than the males.

Breeding tubers won't appear on the males gillcovers or fins until spawn. That is to say you don't have two females or two males.

They will breed once they are old enough and if they are male and female

im not so sure but one time i got a gold fish from the fair and i over feed it so mabey over feeding it or mabe they are just weak because every gold fish i have heard of last 5 days or less

If the tank is actually filled to the brim (tanks never are) the water would weigh 8.35lbs x 30gallons which is 250.5 lbs. To obtain an accurate total weight you would have to add in the weight of the sand/gravel substrate, and the rocks (decore) and the weight of the empty tank. Then you would subtract the weight of the top 1 inch or so that is always left empty.

You can prepare turtle in a variety of ways, the easiest for survival means would be to lay the turtle on a bed of hot coals for about 20 min. Then just crack the shell and enjoy. Be sure to fully cook the turtle though, they can carry some nasty bugs, like salmonella
