  1. cool thanks for quick reply what is the ideal water temp
  2. hi just setting up a 40L tank i know that the rule of 1.5w per L so my question is will a 100w be to much
  3. lol, sweet so how else can you tell the difference between male and female other than the females are larger?
  4. mainly chasing near the top of the top, how easy is it to sex danios, i have 2 long finned and 2 short finned, the one doing all the chasing is rather fat compared to the others is there anywhere with pictures to show a male and female, thanks
  5. hi i have seen one of my long fin danio's chasing and what looks like fighting with WCMM and other danio's. This fish has not done this before is this a sign of breeding (sorry about the spelling)

    Transferring fish

    hi i have just upgraded to a bigger tank and had the same problem all i did was use the old filter medium and placed it on top of the new ones under the spray bar for a month and used all the water from the old tank. It has been approx 2 weeks and they are doing fine

    hi so it will be alright to have 21L of old water and 54L of new water so i will not have to let it cycle if i use the old filter as well as the new one

    how many danios should we have, when we get a bigger tank? we are looking at getting a AR980 for tropical fish would love to for the goldfish but i think the mrs would flip out at me, she might go for a AR620 thats about 90litres would this be sufficient?

    we do have a filter 200 litres an hour, i thought we would need a bigger tank, looking now for one, just not sure how much bigger to go. our local pet store sells danios as cold water fish and they have survived a year without a heater, they seem happy enough.

    i was wondering if someone could give me some advice on feeding fish. currently we have a small tank for our 3 year old daughter with 2 fantails 2 danios and 1 shubunkin, we have had the fantails and danios now for a year and only got the shubunkin yesterday how often should i feed these, i think i may be under feeding them as i normally feed them every 2 days, please help would hate to think im starving my daughters fish as she is very attached to them! also i have seen one of the fantails eating flies would this harm the fish in anyway? like i said we have a small tank, our local pet store said it would be fine with these fish in it but now we are thinking its looking a tad crowded, its only 22 litres what size tank should we have for these fish? thinking of the future when we may want to add some new additions. any advice would be great thanks
  16. well thanks for that now i can say that I (my wee girl) has tropical fish :lol:
  17. but they alright like this??
  18. Just put pictures on the net now please have a look
  19. they are the same as whats in the tank http://www.album.co.nz/danz
  20. will post picture soon to help id fish as grandad brought them for her and he did not take any notice of what they are. :roll:
  21. Im only new to this but my guess is too much light = more algae but wait until someone confirms this
  22. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Home-living/Pe ... 105783.htm That is the tank that my 3 year old girl has. I like the look of the stones and the background picture but when i think about it those stones will prob be to much color for a bigger tank It has 2 Fantail Goldfish and 2 Danio's I look after it and they just start growing on you and now i want one for myself but BIGGER :lol: but still fell bad for those fish becasue of the tank size and will look at getting a ar620 or 620t for them after i get my big one so that they can have some friends and more room. Another question. i would like to know if 2 200 watt heaters would be alright for an ar980 tank i will not fry them will i
  23. yes the tanks are a good price but the stands are a bit of a killer. Question 1. jebo do they have the same filter system as aqua one?? Question 2. Where do you get gravel like this in bulk and how many kg's will i need for the ar980??? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Home-living/Pe ... 105783.htm
  24. is there a local fish club fish club in Nelson???
