Went to the store yesterday in search of some algea eaters for my son's fish tank for Christmas. He's had the tank for almost 2 years now and while we clean it regularly we thought they might help. We've had pretty good luck with the tank. We started with 3 Zebradanio fish, which both Dan and Io died. We added another one at some point that we named Kirk Maltby, sorry to say but he's now been put on permenant retirement (if you know what I mean). Other then that we've only lost one other fish named Swimmer. All in all it's been a success and considering that we currently have half of the Detroit Red Wings represented in his tank Zach is pretty happy.
I found a snail (now known as Sammy for Samuelsson) and 2 algea eaters (Lilja and Lebda}. When Zach got home I sent him upstairs to clean the outside of his tank with windex. He was so surprised when he saw his new fish. He was excited because he knew they could do a good job. Katie was excited too, "ALLERGY EATERS" are just what we need. It was so cute I almost hated to explain that they eat algea not allergies. Although, we could use some allergy eaters at our house as well!
