Question
QUESTION: Hi Lynda. I've got more algea and it's not the green stuff either. There is quite alot of it and I really want to kick it into the middle of next year. It's in the goldfish tank and Dasher and Comet are doing fine apart from their algea problem. Alot of people can't keep algea away and I think I am one of those people who can't keep it away. Go on to you tube, type in Nova dragons Eccles College and you should find the band. The song is called Hero and we have had it played on the local radio and now we are all in the paper. We are being asked for autographs. Go away algea. Where is a Pleco when I need one?
Danielle. I'm really worried about the algea problem. My fella bought me a group of Neon tetra's and they are lovely. How often do they spawn?

ANSWER: Hi Danielle,
I typed it in, and I got a whole bunch of stuff, but not the band.
Algae is very hard to get rid of.  Usually when put in a darker place, away from the sun, it solves the problem.  Do more water changes, it may help.
Neons are egg scarterers.  I do not know how often they spawn.

QUESTION: Hi Lynda. You know if you still want to hear the single I think I know a way of getting to you so you can hear it. It's ok I looked spawning up on the internet but I can't remember what it said. They are apparently very good at surprising you with eggs when you least expect it though. I will do more water changes. The tank is well away from sun light. I put it well away from my bedroom window. Did you find anything titled something like, rock band? If you did that's us. I will send you the article. I will copy it out now. I will send some of it now.
Disabled students release charity single.
A band of disabled college students have recorded a cd to raise funds for music equipment. Nova Dragons, made up of pupils from salford city college, wrote and recorded the song Hero as part of a school project.
We were called Eccles college but we have changed our name to Salford ciy College. The song goes something like, I want to find you. I want to help you. I want to do what's right and I have to do it tonight. The chorus is all I want to be is your hero. Is your hero and then we surprise you all by all shouting 1 2 3 4! and the music gets faster. The song fits me and my pets becausae I want to do what's right for my fish. Let me know if you want to see any more of the article or song.
Danielle. I have a message of the band. If ever you need us the Nova Dragons are here for you. Ask us any question you like. You can even ask about the band and we will answer. We love our fans.
Nova dragons.

Answer
Hi Danielle,
I still cannot find it..I find the school, and all the activities, but not the song.  Maybe if you give me the title, I will be able to find it, as there are pages, and pages on Nova Dragons...but no song.
I would really like to hear it.
