Loaches Online Forum

Thank you all, she is my pride and joy.

Martin, I tried to upload the video to the Community site earlier but it wouldn't work for me. I created a folder in the Articles>Image like you suggested, and although it appeared to be loading something (and took ages) the following error message finally came up:

Hi Emma, how long have you been feeding them the Salad shrimp? I sometimes use Raw shrimp vs the slightly prossed salad shrimp. Not sure if there is a difference over a long term.

Cool VDO, when you think you are watching the large loach, the camera moves to this big monster. Not calling Marga a monster. Also, it looks like when the crowd finally rejoins Marge after their dart, the second largest loach started to get a little honary with Marge.. Cant tell for sure because the clip ends.

No idea Em. Send me the file and I'll see if I can upload it.

Martin.

At the risk of sounding really thick , when I try to e-mail my video files, the computer just sends a still picture. I can't see a way around it at the moment.

Martin - I thought I found a way of attaching the video to an e-mail and sent it to you last night. But this morning, it said that it couldn't deliver it. I tried sending it to myself too, and the same thing happened. I think the file is probably too large. So I don't know what to do now? Is there any way you can try doing anything with the file that's stored on my photobucket album? http://s88.photobucket.com/albums/k183/ ... CN1258.flv

Emma

I've tried that already

Think we need to wait till Jeff gets back and see if there's a way. We can always externally link to Photobucket, but it would be nicer to have it on-site.

I don't know if the prawns are 'processed' where you are, but over here when you buy a pack from the supermarket, they are simply cooked and stored in a little brine. Nothing else has been done to them, other than the shells removed. My clown loaches have been enjoying them for some years now and have been receiving them much more regularly since we acquired Marge and Stripes (they were the only food item that tempted Marge to start eating in the first place - now she eats anything).

Yes, I think that sounds like a good plan! It would be much better to have the video on-site rather than having to link to it. JS should be able to sort us out.

Emma

Em....until we can sort out internal hosting, I've added an external link to the vid into the profile.

Hi guys, how much HTML does the community site allow you to embed?

For example if you add the following:
This will embed the video of Marge i posted to google. The result of this code can be seen here http://www.dienyddio.com/~les/marge.html

You are lucky, over here in Colorado, don't know if it is because of the altitude, the cooked prawns have Sodium triphospate(for the cooked shrimp to retain moisture) and Sodiumbisulfate (preservative).
