gestation (you?)

just send the pair to me?

Biggest I have caught is just under 11 lbs just off cape jackson near where the lermontov is grounded. Some of you have seen photos.

Tried to send fish today complainant was to spca about NZ couriers cause res they purchased over internet arrived dead or near death here in ChCh Driver picked up my fish then rang to say "nope" and i explained -my fish my risk well packed no blame BUT needs to be O/N delivery They took them didnt sign anything but is gone Nav

last lot of "royals" and there are several types that get called that here wer aroudn teh 140 160 mark. They are great fish Mystics price was/is a little flexable from memory so give her a PM. Pics of mine are on the MAC tank crawl thread and he is is with some solid fish Great additions to a big tank

The "egg crate" can be found a lighting shops as diffusers for commercial office lights Not sure of costing

Thanks for photo caryl on the right side of the tank by the sticky temp gauge you can see one of the weirs that is used as an overflow. 100x 100 box from top of tank to bottom with bulk head at bottom Also because the angle of the photo you can see ...just...the spray bar running behind the rock work at the back (White pipe runing right to left or left to right at back of tank In the first open cupboard you can see the sump tank which is just visable as is the tray for holding the filter wool on top of the bio matt stack for scale as I said tank is 6x2x2 and stand is 600 at where tank sits with a small lip above that to help hide substrate workings etc. Rest is dirty ol red pine Same principal as Davids drawings but towers are incorperated into tank to help reduce under tank height. Smideys set up ..to be...is also very clean and tidy..lol. But I would be tempted to load the first baffel with sponge/filter wool to reduce particulate matter

I use a mix of these as the MAC crawl people saw in my 6x2x2 so not a big tank but well stocked with 3 adult chocs some geophagus around 250 mm and some big plecs lionheads and EBJDs Not heavily stocked but getting up there as all are "messy". My "spray bar" is on the bottom of the tank turning around 3000l hour this pushed "detritis" forward and up into the water column and into the two overflow chambers I have(wiers). These are packed at one end with bioballs and ceramic noodles and bio mat at the other. Both have a cover of filter wool which I change weekly. These are in effect big trickle towers. they flow to a sump which has a layer of filter wool on top then bio mat stacked and works at about 2/3 capacity when running...so is in effect a "wet" chamber. this "spills" into a baffled area where the sump pump and heater are contained and this runs at about 1/3rd capacity to accomadate pull down. I also run an FX5..becasue I can... and as I said big messy fish. It works for me and is realatively low maintainance. I top up with my water changes and lids help alot to slow flash off I used argonite gravel and oamaru stone in the background and this gravel vaxed to remove any crudd. The spray bar is drilled about 2-5 mm below the water level in operation with a small hole that means there is some back flow when the pump is switched off but once hole is exposed it breaks syphon. HTH

Pity the que starts just to the left of me for those. Good luck with the search Nav

Redwoods had fundolopanchax in stock and they will ship try them

In my room I have used king pumps, cheap, big head, with lots of water and I have had good service from them and the suppliers. However in my in-house tanks I have run ehiems and if i was to replace any pumps I would use these again no problems little mainatinace and lots of abuse easy to clean and service and parts are everywhere. HTH Nav

Does it keep those markings and colour as it ages or does it wash out/change?

Try Organism Think John has it now and then Might post it to you

Just wondering if these are about in breedable numbers? Nav

when the poolice knock on your door and search theh place because the fish room has more draw and moving water and a larger heat signature than the last two 'hot' houses they have seen put together oh laff yes go on but when you are a a member of a local gun club the AOS is NOT funny at 2 am and even they dont see the funny side when you explain .."but its just my fish room"
