FishMan asked:


My uncle has a 1500 gallon pond and has 6 comets and 3 koi in it and a bunch of really small fry. Is this overstocked?

I am also planning to give him 1 koi and 2 comets because I don’t have enough tank space to keep them in, if it is alright.

dtsuldin asked:


I want to start a Koi aquarium, but I know koi’s get massive. I don’t have a pond and even if i made one idk if there is enough space in the yard for it. I know they live for like 30 years, maybe i would have moved somewhere bigger by then? So im wondering how long i can keep them in a fairly big aquarium before they get too big?

Canon Digital Cameras Are Tops

August 20th, 2009 — 04:40 am

digital camera zoom

Canon is well known across the country for imaging equipment and information systems. Their many products include copiers, printers, lenses, camcorders, semiconductors, and of course Canon digital cameras.

The PowerShot SX110 IS is the latest high end Canon camera. This is a 10.0 mega pix digital Canon camera that has a 4x digital and 12x optical zooms. This baby is furnished with Optical Image Stabilizer (that is what the IS in SX IS stands for) that eliminates camera shakes for people who have shaky hands or for taking camera shots. The UD lens provides amazing color accuracy throughout the digital zoom cameras area.

As with many digital cameras nowadays, the SX100 can record moving pictures. Such is the same with others in the same family like the Canon Powershot digital cameras. Now with another first, the SX110 allows you to record moving pictures, and there no use for missing a perfect image incorporated with that moving picture. With the Movie Snap feature, just snap away when you see that perfect image, and it will be saved in your canon digital camera along with the recorded video.

This canon digital camera is also equipped with the DIGIC II Image processor that is designed to increase processing speed and image quality. It instantly says that with the DIGIC II, your canon digital camera has faster start-up time, playback and auto focus while giving your images the absolute brilliance.

The SX110 also support USB 2.0 Hi-speed standard, when transferring files to and from your computer with ease. With the USB 2.0, you can take advantage of your super hi-speed SD card.

This canon digital camera is also supplied with a 1.8 inch LCD fold out screen contains 116,000 pixel resolution. SX100 shoots at 30 frames per second; this shooting rate can be reduced when taking pictures in night display, to give you the brightness that you need when taking pictures.

On the other hand, the latest point and shoot canon digital camera is the PowerShot SD950.

The SD500 is the first 7.1 mega pixel Canon digital camera that prepares terrific pics and incredible details. It has a 3x optical zoom that enables close up shooting with a 37-111mm equivalent with a 35mm film camera. This new camera features a curved design that fits into the palm of your hand perfectly.

Sporting a very slim design, you would marvel at its 2.0 inch LCD that gives easier frame and play back use.

It also comes with the same DIGIC II Image Processor that are found in other Canon cameras. It also comes with a high-speed SD card which is USB 2.0 compatible.

Even better than most digital cameras out there, this gadget can shoot moving images to up to 60 frames per second- perfect for moving objects (especially in sports) and a 30 frames per second for shooting still images. Furnished with scene modes like portrait (blurs the background and focuses on your subject), foliage (perfect for foliage, greenery or blossoms), beach (sunny shots without the dark faces), underwater (reduced background scatter. Tip: you can always buy waterproof case for shooting underwater images), fireworks, night snapshot, kids and pets, indoor, snow and digital macro (larger than life images).

This canon digital camera even enables you to customize and correct as you shoot. With modes like lightening skin tones, positive film, darker skin tones and others, you can never go wrong with using a canon digital camera.

Build A Blog Store – I’ve Been Had !!

August 17th, 2009 — 02:46 am

I spend my life in front of a PC screen and I’ve bought hundreds of different items online. I’m totally happy with buying online, it’s ultra-convenient.

A few weeks back I received an email from a web hosting company called WebHostForSEO extolling the virtues of a new piece of software called Build A Blog Store. It looked interesting and since there was a 100% refund policy, I was happy to order it even though it was a tad pricey at $297.

The software didn’t love up to expectations, in fact it doesn’t work at all here in the UK, so I requested my refund….several times !!. No reply. I tried passing on my comments through WebHostForSEO, the guy seemed genuinely concerend about the problems and promised to pass them on to the Build A Blog Store owners. Same result, my request was totally ignored. I’d supplied them with details of the many problems in the software and I’m so pissed off that I’ve been taken for a ride by these people.

If you are considering buying Build A Blog Store then DON’T…it doesn’t work !!.

Besides the regular treatment, I was wondering if I can help her some other way. Sadly I live in San Juan Argentina, and we don’t have the technology that probably vets from the States have, but anyway I want to know if you guys can give me any tips, maybe Bach’s Flowers?
