That discus on the left in the first pic is awesome!

That's good to hear. Your mum drove past and gave me a flier while I was at work the other day. Good to hear you found him.

That's pretty cool, thanks for linking.

hahaha yea I thought those sounds were terrible too

oooh I shall set an alarm for that!

I'm with Hovmoller! They would be awesome to see

I took this last night, no eggs that I could see but still quite cool, they did it a few times. (video, click to play)

Looking good! What's that tall brown crypt?

Feed them up on live foods, that would be a good way to get them in the mood. White/Blackworms are great and easy to cultivate.

Yea I got mine from him too, they are nice fish.

Yea felt like it should have been in the high 5's here in Riccarton. We even lost power for about 40 minutes which hasn't happened since the February one. I hadn't refilled my tank properly so no water lost luckily.

The sentence you quoted was for livebearer_breeder, Joe. You won't find any glosso anywhere near this tank :lol:

Colombian tetra, they rock

Very cool, well done!

50L is much too small to breed discus in.

That would be a stick insect.

Thanks, but I'm sorted for plants now, just got to wait on them to grow. Took a ton of photo's tonight and got one good one and one ok one. These are awesome tetra's, mini piranha!

I found blackworms in the gravel of my pond. I'd just scoop a bunch out with a jug and sort through the gravel and pull out the worms with tweezers.

Vermiculated's (Synodontis schoutedeni) are around but pretty rare

Hmm might try them out later on down the track. It's frustrating eh. Such a pretty plant when red, but I think it's gross when green.

I bought a cheapie off trademe a while ago. Takes a few times of plugging in and unplugging before it 'blows' instead of 'sucks' but it's good when it goes properly. I used to have it on a timer and most of the time it would turn on 'sucking' and I'd get fish trapped inside it and die.

To bring out the reds? You don't reckon it would look too blue?

Can you take a photo of it?

Left one is 10,000k and right one 6,700k. I had a 10,000k in the right hand side and it broke, got a replacement and it broke too. So this will have to do. They don't really make much of a difference in colour of the plants, just the sand and wall behind it. Well, that's what I reckon anyways.
