net poll:)
 

So I couldn't help myself. Here's the quesion of the hour.

A new what???

Do i use a new? Well i probably don't since i don't know what it is :lol:

I use a new all the time :mrgreen:

Steve

i had a new but then i went and used it and now it is no longer a new :lol!:

I like to use new but I also like bare bottoms.

dave

Not "new" -- "Nee!"

:lol:

I know for a fact that I have never used a "Nee"

:biggrin:

naw, no new now.

:lol:


Um...Yea.... :rofl:

That's supposed to say NET and it won't let me change it.

I used them before but just lately started using and things are working much better now.

Ohhh net, no I don;t use a net when transfering new fish from the stores bag to my tank. I bought several different sized plastic strainers from the buck store and I slowly dump the fish into this after it is aclimatized and then gently lower it into my tank till the fish swims out. nets are natorious for ripping of scales and causing other wounds. I don;t like theidea of catching them with a net but it is the only way that works for me.

Where's Deb & Christy with all this rhyming going on ? :biggrin: I have to use a net, seems when I use my hands the fishes eyes tend to bulge, never happens with a net :mrgreen:

Using A Net
 

I never use a net except to guide a fish into a container - netting is too stressful and poses the problem of possible injury IMHO. I find that fish recover faster if they are not removed from the water during transfer.

I don't know what's better- a firm hand or a three stage barbed weddingband :razz: :mrgreen:

cheers, Rich
