Yeah, it's good for the view but the fish is a bit anxious about it :lol: Everytime someone walked in front of the tank he freaked. My mate has draped a towel over the front of the tank so he can't see people moving about and it's settled him down 8)

Hi all. Check out this choice of cave A mate of mine has had some GBA spawning action and this is where the male decided was a good place to bring up his brood.....
-
Sorry for your loss Bilbo I'd never seen it before either
-
True. It's working now. Cheers.

Some fish fell safer having both ends of the cave open....it gives them more opportunity of escape. My Cockatoos used a cave like Amazonians flower pot but my Kribs preferred a pot that had the back cut out.

Hi Mad Whip. I don't have the new tank yet. The guy I'm buying it off is getting a huge new tank built so I have to wait for that to happen. It'll be soon though (he says hopefully)

Ditto. Well done 8)

Hi. I have a book here, 'Aquarium Care of Bettas' by David E Boruchowitz which states..."Asian Betta breeders first produced crown tails at the end of the twentieth century"...end quote..... so they're relatively new to the hobby.

Right back at ya :bounce: :bounce: 8)

I know when they are holding because I can see that she has a swollen chin. This is called the buccal cavity. Also, she won't be eating. I took this pic of a Fryeri 10 minutes ago. You can actually see the fry 8)
-
Thanks Ryan but she did all the work. I have a Cobalt holding too so I'm going to give her a go in a day or two.
-
I stripped her this time because she was looking skinnier than she usually gets, whether that was my imagination or not, I feel happier to have her eating 8) Too true, but it's a hard choice....would I rather be kicked off through disgust or derision :lol:
-
:lol: That sounds like something Mugabe might say.....

LMAO....I knew there'd be an exoctic dancing reference.....and I'd be more than just booed off....I'd be bottled off :lol:
-
:lol: Congratulations....now you can have that fishroom you've always wanted :bounce: :bounce:

Cheers. I love having fry to grow on. I usually give the females a tank of their own so they can release when they're ready but I wanted to have a go a stripping....
-
It didn't work for you....I don't know why but you'll get the hang of it

Hi all. I decided to strip the fry from a Peacock today, it was my first attempt so I was a little nervous, unnecessarily as it happens :lol: .....I caught her, put her in a container, turned away for a couple of seconds to get a tool and by the time I turned back she'd already released them for me 8) Easy peezy :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

Hi emu_15, Whenever I've measured it's 7.2/7.3ish in Phillipstown. I rang the council years ago and was told that we don't treat our water with chlorine. The same question re:pH, was asked here http://www.fnzas.org.nz/fishroom/chch-w ... 33914.html HTH

Throw in a pot of tea and I'll think about it. I promise to give you an answer before 31 December
