what about a small shipping container or something like that? line it out and cut a hole on one side for the front Or will that be to big

im worse 3:49am :lol: :lol:

32*c outside here today

yep in CHCH :lol:

we have an HRV system and it tells you the temp of the rooms and the roof space The lounge is 32*c The roof space is 58*c and the fishroom is 34*c Its so hot

They are eating BBS and seem to be going fine will get them on a mixture of BBS and microworms next week sometime Its harder than i thought to get a pic of the fry also it is hard to stay in the fishroom for more than a few minutes because it is so hot in chch today and my fishroom is now sitting on 34*c with the door open and a couple of big fans blowing the air to keep it cooler.

why were you driving a stolen car :lol:

yep the same ones they laid in a terracotta pot cut in half. i think it might have something to do with them temp of the water as in my fishroom i only have 1 300w heater going in my planted tank and the room stay's on about 27-28*c but over the last couple of weeks as it has been getting warmer my fishroom has been getting warmer and their tank has been on about 31*c and they never tried to eat there eggs like they have done the past few times What temp is your tank? I think there are around 50ish fry which are now starting to swim up to 15cm away from the parents. 8) 8) Is there anything special i need to do for the fry?

:lol: :lol:

They are the ones i got off here from up north awhile ago i think they are the Apistogramma Cacatuoides

Thanks i will try and get some pics later tonight or tomorrow depending on how flat the camera battery is lol

so finally after the third laying i have now got fry they have been free-swimming for around 8 days now with both parents they are eating BBS and are now around 3-4mm long :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

Hey Dixon What shop was that?? i might have to get some

lots of driftwood or use peat

How do you get rid of green beard algae?? well atleast that is what i think it is :lol:

How much and how often do you put salt in??

I would say that as they are still small id be doing 25% water changes Daily With the filtration that you are going to have on the ar850 25% every 3 days should be fine. On My discus breeding tanks i do a 40% water daily, Best time to do a water change is about 2 hours after feeding

how often are you doing water changes?

with the cf1000 you can get them on trade me new for around 110 - 130 but you can also get the cf1200 which is the 1200LPH new at 120 im sure that is the price i saw it. There have been a few posts about "which brand is best" Best Ehiem Fluval Aqua one jebo Something like that

Hi and welcome to the forum Most canister filters have small tubing. I find that the Fluvals have larger tubes (there will be other members that will have a better idea than me) Yes Neons are fine in the higher temps mine are in 30*c water sometimes it gets up to 33-34*c on hot days when the lights are on. Is that a 165L tank? (from memory i could be wrong lol) How big are the discus? They will need a bigger tank once they get up to about 7-8cm body size It is recommended that for adult discus that you have 50L per discus in your case 400L but you could get away with 300L+ as long as you have a few places for them to hide Eg: behind tall plants etc... Hope that helps

Great work Mark My pair look like they are ready too spwan again
