  5. LOL just a pity my speeling makes me a moron...oh well onwards and upwards. If it makes you feel any better this Moron has a small 3 odd mil budget 40 staff and is responible on any given day for between 20 and 200 ill adults good thing eh moving on moving on nothing to see here From that descriptor one has to think that the fish with the barring rather than the spots is a truer phenotype? Is that how you read things? Ill wait for you to finish reading tho...do you mind if I go get groceries whilst that happens...lmao where is the emote for puts tounge in cheek? Whilst Firenzenz slaps me about a bit?
  6. Er thanks LA So um is what your saying is that they may be different form here to there? Depending on where they where caught? Ok phew well all the cobues were caught in Tuahiwi bro....lol Sorry sick sense of humor yes there are variations and same with many fish look at Calvus/Comps in the Alto family....takes more than the practiced eye to tell some apart ( That is a hint to those that have them that I wouldnt mind a few tanks of them so I can get my eye in...lol) even "common" fish like some of the killies or kribs...you need to know what your about to tell some of the differences hence why we need to make sure we make sure I guess. Still I have enjoyed this thread Well done may there be more like it.
  7. I have to agree with a lot of the sentiment in this thread. thank you for posting the cobue change from day to day F1 male ( for want of a better term) is completely different today than he was when I brought him 12 mths ago. body shape and markings have evolved over last wee while to pics and fish you have both seen. I guess at the end of the day I brought these fish in as described so can only go on that. If they are not i am happy to admit that it will cost me nothing...well...a few fish is not that much in the scheame of things eh....and I still think they are nice. These guys at 5 cm are different than at 7.5 and 10 cm Give them time...lol besides the only people that have them are like minded so will wait and see. there are only 3 generations in NZ and I have 2 of them in my room both true thus far... One day at a time. Sorry to hijack thread
  8. Sounds great If you put in your avitar where you are it might help us work our what Local means....lol Great to here you have spawned your fish tho Nav
  9. either way Nice pics thanks for sharing One thing I have notice in my cobues is that the patterns can change with age, mood and light. I have sometimes looked in the tank and gone oh crap...then other times looked and gone hmmm...phew. Do your "boys" have mood swings like this or are the patterns consistant?...and what are the females like? thanks for the post Nav
  10. Also how come a 50 year old lady can pick up a 25 yr old bloke and she is called a cougar and thats ok but a 50 year old bloke is called a pervert if he has a 25 year old GF? ( I would call him lucky and want half his luck...or money...lol)

  17. HI, It would help a lot if you put your local in your user bit. easy to do and gives us an idea where you are based. you can use anything you like as a substrate but what you use will govern to some extent what work you need to do to maintain the tank afterwards and in some sense what plants you would like to keep. I have tried flourite in a tank and it is great. I have also tried cheaper options as well and i see little diffenece in plant performance but there is a different amount of work per tank. In my last two tanks (400l and 100l) I have used daltons aquatic mix about 1cm deep under a 2 cm deep layer of sand of VERY fine gravel. over this I have placed a 2 -3 cm layer of fine but corser than the last layer of gravel. To my mind I dont really care what the colour scheame of the gravel is but I prefer the more natural ones and I look for gravel that promotes the types of plants I want to keep..ie acidic nuteral or alkaline. In the 400l tank I use under gravel heating co2 and moderate lighting ( which I must update) in the other tank I use water based heating and moderate lighting. I water change regularly on these tanks but I never disturb the gravel unless I really have to. And to be honest with adequate layering of substrate then there is no great need. and there is rarely any "cloudiness" So whilst I think it is great you are reseaching the type of substrate and that this is essential another aproach might be to look at plant requiremnts and build your tank around that hth Nav
  18. Now with all that testosterone and that many tools in a single room it might be a bit much for me
