When I clean the tank....
Posted: Sat Nov 05, 2005 3:05 pm
Does anyone have any suggestions from experience of the best place to put my RES when I clean her tank? I want to make it as stressless as possible for her.
I was thinking of putting her in a container in a place where she cant see all the activity around her tank. Should I put water in the container or keep her dry? I dont know what she would be more comfortable with.
Im going to use a container like the one I feed her in because she does not mind being taken out of her tank for feeding everyday and she actually perfers small containers. I use a microwave bowl a few inches bigger than her only because when I would tried to feed her in a big sterilite container she wouldnt eat and would struggle to be removed from it.
Since cleaning takes some time though, I dont want her to associate being taken out of her tank and something negative so all suggestions are welcome.
