    Alison, Having been an avid aquarist since the age of about seven, I
    can tell you that unless you have recently bombed your jewelry in
    cyanide and failed to properly rinse it - you should have no
    problem... unless there are large Cichlids in the tank. 

    Oscars, and Jack Dempseys come to mind. Some of them will be curious
    about the shiny objects and may rearrange them for you, or actually
    swallow a piece or two. There are also a couple of varieties who may
    want to spawn and then nest within a large enough bracelet... 

    I would have no qualms with fish who couldn't fit the jewels into
    their mouths, or carry them off and hide them. 

    Once upon a time, I used to hide a few things in the piranha tank
    for safety when we left home... never had a problem with the jewels,
    the fish, or theft.
