freakyfish,were staying on the coast were booked into ................ towers duh i can't remember the name.will definatly be looking at all the sights,will have to rely on some local knowledge as to what is worth a visit as time will be at a premium,only have 10 days sooooo much to see

heard a roumor sarah was going out to spend the evening with a boy band!!

i'm coming over to brisbane in september,where do i come?

have to agree with freakyfish,malawis cichlids in their natural habitat 4th edition is the go,so informative and up to date,check out cichlid press thats where i found mine.they have lotsa goodies

take all precautions with filters - I have found my bristle fry living in the hoses of external filters even with the strainers that come with them.

give it time hellen,keeping africans is very much a patience game take a look at livingarts fish, when i picked them up off james he looked very much like that,not as intense in the colour but he is only a youngster,he has only just passed his first birthday,i'm sure he will get there.they were bought as ''royal blues''.

if i was a betting man i'd say,tis a boy.hes got a big ed........

heya afrikan good to see you have decided to come out!!!,lol everything looks good as usuall.those on the gold coast don't speak too soon the family will be over in september gold coast here we come.. we will seek...we will find...

read in the paper today that the nz one will not be shown as it wasn't availiable for international purchase,something about the ''stars'' signing a contract that it was't to be shown in nz.

yup bang on,well thats the conclusion i reached watched these fish grow but as i had not seen or kept was unsure,was only when the female held that i bought them

the melos were bought as ''blue melanochromis'',they arn't johanni they don't get as big as the johanni and the female keeps the colours. good breeders too cleaned out the red shoulder tank and more babies,want any more,lol the baenschi looks to have settled in well tank looks good to keep us updated on progress

wow impressive - looks much better than the small ones I keep seeing. as for price that's what Trade me is for - an auction is probably the only way to gage what he could be worth - cause hes only worth what someone is prepared to pay.

those lithos are really stunning fish,real good line

hmmmm zebras and plants,interesting zebras being mbuna and going by my experience they could become between feed snacks.that is not to say it won't work don't be too disapointed if it dosn't.i have found that the best plants to use are vallisinaria,crypts and anubias they are more hardy and can take the knocks better,java fern is also another favorite be.nice look be awesome if it does well thou

if you like the look of limestone - we got ours at Whakatiki Soil and Sand of course on Whakatiki Street, Upper Hutt. that of course was a while ago - so not sure if they still have. When we got it we searched around all their piles as it was mixed in with other rocks. they also had limestone chip - can't remember what we paid though.

yes you meet me - but it was the hubby that posted that (Glenn) he is the one into the cichlids - I have planted community tanks. Karen

if you are unable to decide and want to see what peacocks look like fully grown you are more than welcome to come and see my tanks,it will give you an idea or two to take home and ponder

no i'm not going to say it,cool programme aye?

put plants along the glass each side to cover the dividers so they can't see through.

Glad to see that this cutie has gone to a home where he will be looked after. I very much would have liked him - but don't have space for the tank that he will require. keep us updated with pic's please.
