My fishy made a really nice big bubble nest yesterday. Hes always making bubbles for me. Hope he never stops haha. I think they are cool!

[JHK30]

I wished mine made one. its all ready for breeding just needs that stupid nest!
it started but they popped and he got sad.

awww poor fishy ..yeah i gotta mess up his nest cause i gotta do a water change. Such hard work and i gotta destroy it lol. oh well.

[JHK30]

keeps them busy though. they are smart fish and get bored easy

[dramaqueen]

Yeah, I hate to destroy a nice nest when its water changing time.

ok just asking a random question, is it possible to put a bowl under the nest and pick it up so it floats into the bowl then set the bowl back in after? I mean its worth a shot. you have to wreak it anyways. so try it

When you bring the bowl up the water would probably displace the nest. Maybe if you tried to slip the bowl at an angle and scoop it up? Oh well, I think it gives them something to do so it's not such a bad thing.
