The Glass Bloodfin Tetra, Prionobrama filigera is a medium size tetra, growing to a maximum size of about 6 cm, although they are usually smaller than this.

The Glass Bloodfin is easier to keep and breed than many tetras. They will also tolerate slightly alkaline conditions better as well as harder water, and will take water up to about a Ph of 7.8. They are an excellent peaceful community fish, and will mix well with all common non-aggressive small and medium size fish, and even with slightly larger ones like Angel Fish.

This is a schooling fish and I suggest at least five fish together. A school of this fish is a very pleasant sight. They lack the Splendid colours and fins of the Siamese Fighting Fish, or the spectacular colours of the Cardinal Tetra, but they have their own beauty.

The Glass Bloodfin Tetra is a fast swimming fish and has been known to jump out of the water, so I would recommend a cover. They are a Tropical Fish, and need a heater unless they can be kept in a room that never gets cold. I set our thermostats for this fish at 24 degrees C. although some people prefer to set theirs a little higher.

Companions

Suitable companion fish for a school of Glass Bloodfin Tetras include: Guppies, Platies, Swordtails, Mollies, Fighting Fish, Paradise Fish, Bronze Catfish, Albino Catfish, Peppered Catfish, other small catfish, Algae Eaters, Scissortail Rasboras, Harlequin Rasboras, all the small and medium size barbs, all tetras, and all the common gouramis. For a mixed tank I recommend a Ph of around 7(neutral). The Glass Bloodfin will take harder water than most tetras without ill effects, and copes with the surprising water that comes from the taps in the Adelaide hill as long as the Chloramine is removed first, and the Ph is lowered to about 7.2.

This fish is an omnivore and a good tropical flake food is the most common basic food given them. They also relish live food like daphnia and wrigglers as well as frozen food like blood worms. They will eat any common fish food. The Glass Bloodfin is a surface and mid water feeder by preference, but will certainly go the bottom of the tank to feed if necessary.

The Glass Bloodfin will breed in harder water than many types of tetra. They are an egg scatterer, laying semi adhesive eggs, often over plants.

How do I paint a deck? - Kara Painting Toronto

<!-- @page { margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } -->

A lot of us see painting a deck outside as a summer activity that we look forward to when the weather is nice. As we experience distinctive seasons here, our deck often takes the brunt of the changing weather. If you put a good coat of paint on your deck it will help protect it and improve the value of your home and not to mention, act as a great spot for summer barbeques.

 

Try and find out which paint will work best for the job. Go to your local paint or hardware store and ask their staff which paint they think will work best. Some popular ones are any water based paints, clears or semi-transparent. Make sure to strip off as much of the old paint from the deck as possible so that your next coats won't lift or peel. Another good idea is to use a power wash to get a lot of the old residue off the deck. If you don't have access to that, then you can find tools or a scraper to do it manually. Also, make sure that the tools you are buying for the job are good. Look for a set of good brushes and or rollers so that you can be confident in your application of the paint. You will most likely need different sizes and types of brushes as there may be railings, smaller spaces to trim, large surfaces to use rollers on etc. Another option is to fins a paint spray system. This type of tool is perfect for a faster job that covers more area. A paint sprayer will evenly coat the deck and get it done at a fraction of the time. Don't just go crazy with the spray though. Make sure to put down some plastic sheets or other protective materials to protect any over spray. The best time to paint your deck would be on a calm sunny day so there is no wind to blow the paint around.

 

What you also need to consider is how many coats you want to put down. Remember that a deck is an area with a lot of traffic and most likely it's going to see a lot of wear and tear from shoes and boots and any other action that may occur. Don't forget too that if you have a deck that is adjacent to a pool that it will come into contact with a lot of water from the pool, not to mention any rain that falls. So, a good sealant for a nice strong finish will help you keep that summer party deck open for business for a long time.
