  1. hehe nice pics jo. you will have to show me him next time i come round!
  2. yeah it would be- its getting down that end of the specrum. i just got a 10k for my reef and it is a really nice white, it goes well with my 14k which is quite a bit bluer
  3. 6500k is best for plants 2700k is warm white and isn't very good 10000k - 20000k is for reefers
  4. i heard gsp's were in at hollywood albany ktttk so prolly yes. i'm hoping they will import a suvatii
  5. sorry to hear that fishy... can everyone keep a look out on their lfs, friends tanks and everywhere else for another Tetraodon suvatii- i think mr. hanky was the only other in new zealand but i could be wrong. i'm willing to pay quite price for another. so keep your eyes peeled. cheers folks. sorry for stealing your thread fishy-t.
  6. ha he's prolly skimming out all the muck his last skimmer didn't get reef! or else he is feeding frozen food 3x a day
  7. ha awesome dogmatix its skimming well. i need to get myself one of those
  8. yay my boy is on there- labelled as Tetraodon sabati rather than Tetraodon suvatii for some strange reason
  9. i think they grow to 10 cm by the way... i believe i have a juvenile of the tiger variety myself
  10. these? try http://mx.geocities.com/mexfishweb/page.html
  11. swords and val are ok but often grow emerged rather than submerged. it really depends on which amazon biotope you are going for: amazon oxbow lake biotope aquarium- dominated by bladderwort and floating plants like Eichhornia. also present are val and swords but not many amazon stream biotope aquarium- few plants. in unshaded areas val and swords grow but nothing really grows in the shaded areas.
  12. a proper amazon biotope shouldn't have plants imo.
  13. na they are not illegal if you get a permit and are prepared to deal with maf on a daily dasis :-?
  14. yep. i used a hammer to break up some of those ceramic drain thingies to make shelters- plus $150 worth of fake plants the puffers can't uproot
  15. its a pihrana look at those gorgeous teeth- could compete with my puffers with teeth like that
  16. i'm so excited i have been setting up my 4 ft puffer tank today!
  17. you can't have an amozon tank without some of these dudes
  18. you probably do not want more than one species of killi in a community tank because the females are almost indistinguishable. how about a massive swarm of neons (50-100 or so) i have always dreamed of having a neon tank!!!
  19. stupid really- its not even a true albino strain
