If people forget about Scalares place I'll be home with the kids.

I may beable to do GOOD prices for tanks stands. Where I work does tables so I may beable to sneak the stands in :-) Zinc plated and powder coated in the colour of choice.

Hi guys

looking forward to saterday if in case you can't find our place here

is my ph nr. 960 92 43

our house is the blue one on the coner of north avon rd and flesher ave

see you here scalare (marcel)

pigmy corys are sold

as loopy pointed out the platies should be able to go down to that temp i have never tryed it tho :-?

My tank is usually at 20-21 on the far side of the tank from the heater.

It only goes down to 19 when I do a water change.

I suspect it will get warmer naturally as summer approaches and the weather gets warmer.

If nobody else picks up the platies, I would be happy to take them off your hands. I'll bring money just in case. Just want a little bit of colour other than my greedy gutsy goldfish.

...

Anyone in the market for a small(ish) shubunkin? :P

Hi Janelle

I've got some pearl danios which I'm wanting to get rid of, not the best quality...but i'll give them to you for free as i'm moving all of that tanks occupants out to set up a seahorse tank :lol:

carznkats, I started a discussion in the Beginner's Forum about whether or not Pearl Danios would do okay in cool water and there was some discrepancy in the responses. What temp do you keep yours in? =)

Hi Janelle they are kept about 26'C so admittedly they are probably not the best for coldwater, but your welcome to them to try and i'll take them to the TT meeting for you.

That would be great, thanks. If the danios do very badly I will ask my flatmate if I can put them in one of his tropical tanks temporarily until I find a new owner.

I'm starting to think seriously about selling Edward Elric, my shubunkin. He is getting fat gutsing down the tablets and pellets I feed the corys as soon as they get small enough for him to swallow, as well as getting to all the flakes faster than some of the white clouds. He was my first fish in that tank so I don't *really* want him to go anywhere, but at this rate he will explode soon!

Hope all you lot are enjoying you night at Marcell's while I'm here at home stuck with the rug/tank rats. I can't even look at the Takashi book I bought today as I think it's gone to the TT meeting.

Is it a good book Wilson?????????????? It's another addition to the Totally Tanked Library :-)

Yay, it was a good meeting. With all the fish I brought home my tank has become very busy all of a sudden. Even though the heater doesn't seem to be keeping up and the tank is still at about 20C, the platys and pearl danios are still very active and so far they are doing okay. Also, my new floating fern has taken to one of my other plants and keeps grabbing onto it every time I re-float it. Very exciting stuff, but I think I may be done for now or I'll be overstocked.

Thanks everyone. =)

Thanks for having us Scalare!

What time did you guys finish up just out of curiosity? Would be good to have an idea how long you usually meet for so I can make better arrangements next time :-?

Was nice meeting you. :P

ps: Wilson your fish are all doing fine in my new tank! Still too busy checking it out to bother coming up for food though but they're nibbling on some of the finer plants and I think they're catching some of the flake that I leave on the top after I turn the filter back on! It's funny though they are completely spread out all over the tank doing their own thing! And lucky for me I suspect 4 of your WCMM are female which will be great once I add mine I have 3M 1F and the F gets harassed!

thats great news :D the LF dont eat much so they should be fine :)

when i got them i tryed to get all girl wcmm

good luck with them all :D
