    Tubifex worms

    What is the difference between tubifex and bloodworm?
  4. Found this website. http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/grumpygr/ There is an article about the Egyptian Mouthbrooders http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/grumpy ... tions.html , so hopefully there is some somewhere. seems like the site is managed by pegasus
  5. Don't worry about hijacking my thread, this is good information. defaintly want the Egyptian Mouthbrooders or Southern Egyptian Mouthbrooders now. I think I will sell all my guppies and go cichild and pleco.
  6. Egyptian Mouthbrooders or Southern Egyptian Mouthbrooders sound like the ticket. Where can I find some?
  7. Hmm E yellows, I got some coming soon.
  8. oh trios or more are okay. I am just use to monogonuios (sp) relationships.
  9. I was looking not for the eating type action but rather were mom opens her mouth and all the babies swim in at a great rate of knots. Looks like she's sucking in a big cloud of babies.
  10. Okay, I would like a pair of mouthbrooders. Something not too big, say 10cm - 12cm max. Not too aggressive. And a kind of mouthbrooder that spits out the fry for a swim and when there is trouble sucks them all back in. Any suggestions??
  11. I GOT Wrigglers now. BIG wiggly balls.
  12. Okay, The eggs are on an ornament, maybe I'll put it in a small tank at the end of the day and hopefully the eggs will start hatching over night or next day. Should I put a drop per litre of meth blue in? Should move the female with the eggs?
  13. It is day 3 now and no fry. Still lots of olive eggs with a dark spot in the middle of them.

    fingers(just not mine) :evil:
  15. Try getting some BN's from a local breeder/hobbyists. You may have better luck with them.
  16. How long does it take for the eggs to hatch? I have a female guarding a clutch of eggs, in a community tank. This is a first time mom, and she is doing a good job of it so far. Not sure how she will get on when the babies are free swimming.
  17. My vacuum has a one-way valve, I just shake it up and down in the water and then the water starts to flow.
  18. umm, ammonia ?? Buy some from the supermarket and dose the tank to 4ppm. I think that is right. Try goggleing fishless cycle or something. I have not tried it myself. Normally I just get filter media from another tank and clean the media in the new tank. Right or wrong, that's what I do.
  19. If you buy a new filter, can I have yr old broken one. I like to fiddle around with broken stuff.

    Aquadom

    Might have to do a few modifacations to the lounge to fit that one in. I am sure the landlord won't kind.
  24. Try putting him back in after a week or two. He would have lost ownership of the tank and be the newbie in the tank. He may not be aggressive after reintroduction.

    fish house

    Well, that's bugger. I won't be going for a visit anytime soon then. I thought it might of been near Matamata or something like that.
