He Lives Here! The Craziest Home Fishroom (Returning to Ohio Fish Rescue)

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

I return to my favorite home fishroom, and one with an awesome purpose: The Ohio Fish Rescue. Big Rich takes in fish that have outgrown their tanks (or that can no longer be taken care of) and gives them a home for life. If you missed last year's video tour, you can see it here:

    my discus is rubbing against some rocks and flicking its tails and fins rapidly sometimes, ammonia 0 , nitrite 0 and nitrate is 5ppm, temp is 28c, ph 7(also does this in ph 6.4) , could it be because of heavy metals found in tap water? I didnt use water conditioner yet, could it be bcoz of that or is it the temp?

    It is nice to see someone who recognizes the "spirit" in living things. When fish overgrow the tank they are in, people can't give them away a lot of the time. And living in Ohio, dropping most of these fish into the local lake is a death sentence due to the cold. Fish are fun, but this is more than just feeding a hobby. This is being a purveyor of our humanity and demonstrating all life has a place in this world. Last week I donated a few bucks on your Go Fund Me, and I hope others can see beyond your "wicked" haircut and see the fine example of you "loving all creatures, big and small." Please donate to this good cause.

    Big Rich, if you ever read this, just know: Bless your heart, and your love and compassion for aquarium fish. It looks to me that all of the fish big and small in your care are happy, healthy and comfortable. It's people like you that give me some hope in knowing that there are still people out there who think of the care for the fish first, before the owner themselves. I work in a pet store and help manage our fish department, and for 4 long years I've seen some pretty large fish come and go, and tend to wonder if they're still in good hands up to this day. In the past I've seen some fish in pretty sad predicaments when it comes to improper housing, and we need more thoughtful people like you in the world to correct this wrong, and thank you for all that you do for the aquatic critters who can't help themselves. (:
