Today, we're in Ayrshire to meet Eilidh and her pet fish, | 0:01:15 | 0:01:19 | |
and I cannot wait. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:20 | |
Come on, let's go meet them. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
-Hello. You must be Eilidh. -Hi, Ferne. -And you must be Mum. Hi. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
Hi, Ferne. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
-I hear you have some fish that you'd like me to see. -Yeah. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
-Shall we go say hello? -Yeah. -Come on. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
Wow. So these are your fish? They're beautiful. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:53 | |
What type of fish are they, Eilidh? | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
-They're guppies. -Guppies? Wow. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
Guppies are a type of tropical fish. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
They can also be called rainbow fish | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
because of their colourful bodies and fins. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
They're beautiful. What are their names? | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
-Big Sparkle and Little Sparkle. -Those are fantastic names. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:12 | |
So which one's which? | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
Little Sparkle has yellow on their tail. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
Big Sparkle has orange. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
-So Big Sparkle is a bit more orange than Little Sparkle? -Yeah. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:23 | |
They're so beautiful. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
-How long have you had the fish? -Eight months. -That is great. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:29 | |
It's perfect you've got two so they can keep each other company, | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
-can't they? -Yeah. -Fish can be just like us. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
They can get lonely sometimes. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
So it's nice to have at least two. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
-What's your favourite thing about your fish? -Feeding them. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:44 | |
-Do they like to go to the top of the tank when you feed them? -Yeah. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:48 | |
Some people think fish don't have good memories, | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
but I bet your fish always remember | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
when they're due to get fed, don't they? | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
-Yeah, and Little Sparkle misses the food. -Oh, no! | 0:02:56 | 0:03:00 | |
-Does Big Sparkle gobble it all up? -Yeah. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
-Is that why he's called Big Sparkle? -Yeah. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
I think they're really nice. Do you know I've got fish too? | 0:03:05 | 0:03:09 | |
Yeah? | 0:03:09 | 0:03:10 | |
One of my favourite things about fish is just watching them, | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
because they're so calm and peaceful. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
They're beautiful, the way they just swim around. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
I have a joke for you, Eilidh. Why are fish so good at singing? | 0:03:19 | 0:03:24 | |
-I don't know. -Because they always practise their scales! | 0:03:24 | 0:03:28 | |
Rory, quick, will you give us some fish facts, please? | 0:03:29 | 0:03:33 | |
I need to work on my jokes, don't I? | 0:03:33 | 0:03:36 | |
I think you do, Ferne. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
Fish have lots of little hard plates called scales covering their body | 0:03:40 | 0:03:44 | |
which help to protect them. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
Guppies come in a variety of colours. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:52 | |
And they also have different shapes of tail. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
A female guppy is often larger than the male, | 0:04:01 | 0:04:05 | |
but the male can be more brightly coloured with spots, | 0:04:05 | 0:04:08 | |
stripes and splashes. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:10 | |
Lots of animals need care and attention, | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
but fish especially need looking after | 0:04:26 | 0:04:28 | |
because they live in a tank and are entirely dependent on their owners. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:32 | |
So, Eilidh, what do you do to look after Big Sparkle | 0:04:32 | 0:04:36 | |
-and Little Sparkle? -Clean their tank. -Exactly. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:39 | |
It's important to clean fish tanks regularly | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
to stop algae building up. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
-And also fish poo a lot, don't they? -Yeah. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
So sometimes the water can get a little bit cloudy, | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
-and that's not very nice for them to swim in, is it? -No. -No, no, no. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
-Shall we get started? -Yeah. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:56 | |
OK. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
It's important to keep your fish in the tank when you clean them out, | 0:04:58 | 0:05:02 | |
so you don't stress them out too much, so we're going to use this. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:06 | |
It's called a siphon. We'll suck up the old water | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
and clean the pebbles at the same time. It's clever. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
-Eilidh, what is this at the back? -The filter. -That's right. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:16 | |
-What does it do? -Clean the tank. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:18 | |
The filter helps to keep the water clean. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:21 | |
But because we're going to clean the tank, | 0:05:21 | 0:05:24 | |
-shall we turn it off? -Yeah. -OK. I'll do that. | 0:05:24 | 0:05:26 | |
It's important not to touch the fish | 0:05:29 | 0:05:31 | |
in case you might injure them, so we're going to be careful. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:35 | |
Here we go. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:36 | |
Good job. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:42 | |
So if we bring it down to all these pebbles, | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
you can vacuum up all along the pebbles. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
-Are the fish OK? -Yeah. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:52 | |
-What are they doing? -Swimming around. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:55 | |
-Are they supervising us? -Yeah. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:58 | |
-That's enough water out now, isn't it? -Yeah. -Yeah. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:01 | |
Cos you only take out a little bit of water at a time. Not too much. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:05 | |
-Now, the filter needs to be cleaned, doesn't it? -Yeah. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:09 | |
What we do is, we take out the sponges | 0:06:09 | 0:06:11 | |
which are filled with bacteria. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
We'll clean them in the water we've just taken out, | 0:06:14 | 0:06:17 | |
and we do this | 0:06:17 | 0:06:18 | |
because these sponges contain lots of good bacteria for fish | 0:06:18 | 0:06:22 | |
and you want to keep that bacteria. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
A little bit of a squeeze, and put them straight back in. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
So now, what do we need? | 0:06:29 | 0:06:31 | |
-Fresh water. -Exactly. And your mum's going to bring us some. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:37 | |
-Here you go, guys. -Thank you. -And I'll take this one away. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:41 | |
This isn't just water from a tap. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:45 | |
It's been specially treated so that it's safe for the fish. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:49 | |
I'll put it in nice and gently. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
-Do you think they like this, Eilidh? -Yeah. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
And I'll fill up the filter, | 0:06:58 | 0:07:00 | |
-and we can turn it on. -Yeah. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:02 | |
Ready? | 0:07:02 | 0:07:03 | |
That looks great. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:07 | |
Good job. But now what do we need to do? | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
-Wash your hands. -Yes. Shall we go? | 0:07:11 | 0:07:13 | |
Yeah. | 0:07:13 | 0:07:15 | |
-This tank is squeaky clean now, isn't it? -Yeah. -Well done. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:26 | |
There's plenty of space for your fish to swim around. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:30 | |
-Yeah. -They're very lucky. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:31 | |
There's lots of nice places for them to hide, isn't there? | 0:07:31 | 0:07:35 | |
-Yeah. -What have we got in there, Eilidh? -A rainbow. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:38 | |
-I love that rainbow. -And a tree with pink and green. -Yes. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:44 | |
-What else do we need to do to look after your fish? -Feed them. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:48 | |
-And how often do you feed them? -Once a day. -That's perfect. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:52 | |
-Shall we give them a bit of food now? -Yeah. -They deserve it. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:55 | |
You show me how it's done. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:00 | |
Just a little pinch. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:05 | |
Come on, fish. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:09 | |
Little Sparkle and Big Sparkle have a lovely clean tank | 0:08:09 | 0:08:13 | |
and they've got lots of food. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:14 | |
-I think you've got two really happy fish. -Yeah. -Definitely. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:18 | |
My Pet And Me! | 0:08:20 | 0:08:23 | |
Fish spend all of their time in the water, swimming, | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
eating and exploring. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
But if Big Sparkle and Little Sparkle | 0:08:29 | 0:08:32 | |
could do absolutely anything in the world, Eilidh, | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
what would they do? | 0:08:35 | 0:08:37 | |
DRUM ROLL | 0:08:37 | 0:08:39 | |
If my pet could do anything, | 0:08:40 | 0:08:43 | |
they'd be a fish rock band. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:47 | |
They'd perform to all the sea life... | 0:08:50 | 0:08:53 | |
..and have seahorses as backing dancers. | 0:08:56 | 0:09:01 | |
We've come on a special trip to the local Botanical Gardens | 0:09:08 | 0:09:12 | |
to have a look for some different fish. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
-Shall we go see if we can find them? -Yeah. -Come on. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:18 | |
Wow! Look at these, Eilidh! They are gorgeous. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:31 | |
-They're a lot bigger than your guppies, aren't they? -Yeah. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:35 | |
-Do you know what type of fish they are? -I don't know. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:38 | |
They're called carp. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:39 | |
Some of them look like goldfish. They're amazing. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
Many of these fish were donated by families | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
who thought they were getting a bit big. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:48 | |
It's no surprise. Some of them swimming around | 0:09:48 | 0:09:51 | |
are about that big, they're massive. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:53 | |
-Look at this one. -Look at that one. -That one is huge. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:56 | |
Oh, look, here comes another. | 0:09:56 | 0:09:58 | |
-Look at that one. -Ooh! I like that one. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:01 | |
Oh, yeah, yeah. Here comes one now. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:04 | |
There are so many, and they are all these beautiful colours. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:08 | |
You know the way these fish have all of this stuff to look at? | 0:10:08 | 0:10:11 | |
They've got lots of plants, they've got lots of people visiting them. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:15 | |
I was thinking, what if we got your fish an ornament for their tank? | 0:10:15 | 0:10:20 | |
-Yeah. -OK, let's go have a look around. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
This shop looks like it will have some great things for fish. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:33 | |
Fish. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:38 | |
I like them. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:41 | |
Look in there. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:43 | |
That is cool. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:44 | |
-Yeah. -I think we should try and find some toys now. -Yeah. -OK. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:49 | |
Look at all of these. They're all so great. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
How can you possibly choose, Eilidh? What about the shark? | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
Yeah. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:03 | |
That's cool, and he's got sunglasses. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:05 | |
Do you think he looks like he's ready for his holidays? | 0:11:05 | 0:11:08 | |
Those teeth could be a little bit sharp, couldn't they? | 0:11:08 | 0:11:12 | |
-Yeah. -What's that, Eilidh? -A cupcake castle. -A cupcake castle? | 0:11:12 | 0:11:16 | |
-Do you think your fish would want to eat that? -Yeah. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
It does look tasty, doesn't it? | 0:11:19 | 0:11:21 | |
-Sparkles. -I like that one. Sparkly for Big Sparkle and Little Sparkle? | 0:11:21 | 0:11:25 | |
But out of all of these, Eilidh, which one is your favourite? | 0:11:25 | 0:11:29 | |
-That one. -That big castle? Let's see. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:32 | |
That'd be perfect for your fish. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
What do you think they'll like the most? | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
-That. -A secret door. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:40 | |
-And it's somewhere they can hide. -Yeah. -And they've got windows. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
Yeah, they can swim up inside and try and look out the windows. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:48 | |
-Shall we get that one, then? -Yeah. -OK, come on, let's go. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:52 | |
I think that the castle looks great, Eilidh. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:56 | |
-Big Sparkle is definitely interested. -I think it's good. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:59 | |
What do you think their favourite thing is in this castle? | 0:11:59 | 0:12:03 | |
-Inside of it. -That's right. There's loads of places they can hide. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:07 | |
-Yeah. -I had so much fun meeting you | 0:12:07 | 0:12:09 | |
and Big Sparkle and Little Sparkle. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
My Pet And Me! | 0:12:18 | 0:12:19 | |
-Hi, Rory. -Hi, Ferne. -Hiya, Hector. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:25 | |

I had a great time with my friends. It was really fun. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:31 | |
Great. As you can see, | 0:12:31 | 0:12:32 | |
I've been catching up on some serious cuddle time with Hector. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:36 | |
I see that. He's loving it. Pets are great. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:39 | |
Remember, don't touch an animal unless the owner says it's OK. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:43 | |
Two pets you can play with are ours. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:45 | |
