Just use a decent size chilly bin. Fill it up 1/3 with water and pop the fish in. Fish will be fine for the 8hrs trip. Keep it simple . Ron

The two of you are beyond mad :slfg: bobby!

Yes, they are very sensitive to poor water and hard water.Not using RO because the water is soft enough.Only using Discus buffer. Keeping excellent water quality is the key to big healthy discus so plenty of water changes and feeding a variety of food. Will be spending a lot of time on this tank of discus because they're so expensive and don't get imported much.

Getting the wild to breed is not as easy as the domestic type. The bigger the genetic pool will produce better stronger offspring.

Well, you know that i'm discus crazy so have to get them as soon as i saw them :nfs: :slfg: . They might not be imported again.

yes! in the tank for 3 days now. They look better each day.

That'll teach you not to molest them :sml1: :sml1:

Got some in my show tank :dnc1:

If they can survive 60 odd hrs of flight from Brazil , overnight shipping here is nothing. They are easier to keep compare to the domestic bred variety and the shape are rounder. Ron

You can definately keep goldfish in a tropical tank. In asia the temperature can com up to 30deg daily so there is no difference in keeping them in tropical tank. You will need a lot of airations and waterchanges because goldfish eat alot and poop alot so water quality can go bad overnight in a tank. Ron

The power glo T5 or the arcadia T5 will do the job fine. -

Discusguru replied to Jaide's topic in The Off Topic Fishroom
B. Just tell her the poor fish die because it had to swim around the big tank with water flow from the filter all day. Think it got stressed out big time :rotf: -
+1 very nice indeed and they look happy too.

You can get fresh yeast from the supermarket that come in block like the butter. Cut a small slice and put it in a bucket of warm water with a bit of sugar. Feed it to the daphnia a bit at a time as just to slightly cloud the water. The water will come clear in a day or two and you add a bit in again. That way you'll have your pond or whatever container full of daphnia in no time. That's how I feed mine. hth, Ron

It pay to put your location in your profile so people know where you are.

You'll need more than 2 goldfish to feed the duck :slfg:

Are you using fish to cycle the tank?
