Hi all, at the moment I am doing a bit of a trial at home due to limited space. I have three identical tanks with weir type overflows between each. I am taking water from the left tank, through the canister filter and into the right tank, which overflows into the middle tank, then overflows back into the left tank. This setup has worked for a while now, but I was wondering if when I add another tank to this setup, will it need a timeframe to cycle, or because it would be flowing water from the other tanks and i'm just topping up the setup with fresh water as I would for a waterchange, could i add fish to it immediatley?

Sounds a bit weird, but I always had great success with breeding them when a storm was due to hit due to the change in atmospheric pressure. Other than that, what is your current breeding setup and how have you attempted to breed?

so any sort of acrylic cement should be ok?

Hi all, I am trying to make an acrylic overflow box but i'm a bit hesitant about what sort of glue to construct it with that wont leech anything into the water or is it easier to try and fuse or plastic weld with a small soldering iron? Any help or ideas appreciated. Aaron

Put me down for eggs when they are avaliable :thup:

Chinese Lantern festival..... !drool:

auction has closed without selling but I'm waiting to see if the fish get put up for auction as it stated :cofn:

Just fell in love with these at Hollywoods :nfs: Could work will in my small planted tank I'm restarting over the next few weeks. Just wondering if anyone else keeps them? I heard they have a short lifespan.

if only I had a garage at the moment. current living conditions mean my new tank shelves have been dismantled and put on hold

Congrats :thup: now onto step two, hatching and raising some

$21.90 a pair i think, i left some there for others

I guess my real question is does it occur naturally here in nz?

Just thought I would give a heads up to guppy enthusiests that there are some really nice moscow pairs at both Hollywoods stores at the moment Picked up some for myself for future breeding

Hi all, I was out catching daphnia at my friends farm in a trough out the back of his farm and I netted up some moss. I brought it home and chucked it in a tank but I was wondering if it is what it looks like? (xmas moss) Just seems odd for it to have turned up in a trough :dunno:

well, i had made some changes to the recipie. I doubled the amount of mint bubbly in there as its not the same as the crispy mint. Oh my gosh it was sooo sweet and minty

so how set is set? I thoughed the top and its still a bit soft and sticky?

so i attempted the peppermint chrisp, sitting in the fridge now over night, fingers crossed that it sets

Well, my folks suprised me with a thoughtful birthday gift... Thanks Mum and Dad

good excuse to buy a bigger tank :thup: pity I have 15 small tanks, getting permission to buy a bigger one may be hard work :digH:

cool, thank you guys for the ID :thup: Do you recommend I move it to a bigger tank now before it gets much bigger? I dont dose with special ferts, just use a bit of leafzone every second week. And not under grunty lights, just the normal AR380 hood light

brought a small plant a while back and forgot all about it, now it seems that neglecting my tanks has made it really take off and now its taking over. I was wondering if someone could ID it for me so i know what I'm dealing with. Thanks (the red one if you couldn't guess lol)

any pics by any chance?

anyone know how old it is and how old fire eels get?

even though I frequent there on a weekly basis, I have no idea. I have always drooled over it though, :nfs: if only I had a big tank for him I will ask next time I'm in if no one else answers beforehand

awesome :thup: congratulations Was it intentional or did it just happen?
