  4. Hmm weird huh :-? I guess it would be really hard to determine physically... Has she only started showing interest in breeding? Or has she done it often?
  5. Wonder if she isn't cable of laying Kribkrazy? Possibly she may not have developed in that area? Either that or shes a flirt and a hold out :lol: Or maybe she is just a very PRETTY male

  19. Apparently it was meant to sit for 2 weeks and then water tested... We brought it home and water tested it, that was fine, but the one of the seals let go and YIKES :lol: Glad the noise of the externals running dry woke me up otherwise we would have had a whole heap of dead central americans the next morning to wake up to

  23. So true Mincie.. I have lost count on how many times I have spilt water... luckily tho, it's hit carpet :lol:
  24. They just need good filtration Good luck with your search.. Depending on what sort of price you want to pay.. the smaller Plecs are good (well the ones we have) they don't touch the plants.. do their job on the glass and rocks etc, just not interested in the plants which is a good thing... Flash Plecs and Iquitos we have.
