Thread: Found new use for my needles lying around

  1. #1

    Found new use for my needles lying around

    Inject them into my reef to spot feed corals, zoanthids, and tubeworms. Anyone know if they have any copper in them? Copper is very dangerous to these animals. I wonder if saltwater will rust the needles anyone know?

    I got a freshwater thats an african chiclid tank and i cleaned the tank the other day and all the fish turned into a bunch of pussies running for their lives if I walk by. I think i'm gonna have to go back to ornamental goldfish for the freshwater. Those fish have some big balls. They let you pet them and are very intelligent almost like dogs.

    Cool

    Quite frankly, salt water is like acid to metal. It would eat the paint off of your car, as well.

    What if there was minute amt of test or what ever left in the syringe and over time it built up and your fish became super strong fish and took over? Prolly not but that would be funny.

    One time my cousin and I had a kiddie pool when we were in second n third grade and we caught a bunch of bass, bluegill, and catfish from the lake and made a back yard aquarium. It was the sweetest thing.
