my rams are fine 2 of them are over 4 years old and ive got a young pair of blue rams ive had no trouble with them

the moss is inbetween the glass and mesh

how long did you leave it before you put it in the tank?

mine were in there own tank with some bristlenoses the bristlenoses are still fine

i had the same problem a few months ago but i lost my breeding trio fed them the night before they were all fine woke up in the morning they were all dead nothing wrong with them that i could see and nothing wrong with the water either has anyone else had the same problem?

add some discus

Baby Brine Shrimp

the bristle noses won't be old enough yet im pretty sure they came from me they will be about 4cm long

at that size the glowlights will be fine my pair were in with about 60 kribs about 10mm long in the morning when i looked i thought there were less there were only about 40

when i move goldfish i just fill the tank with water from the garden hose wait about 20mins then start putting the fish in. Because i think about all the crap that goes in the pond from outside. don't use the old water or filter the only thing i use from the old tank or pond if fish lol i have been doing this for over 3 years now and they are all fine Goldfish are very hardy fish

i think you would have more trouble with bristlenoses than SAE

do you have something you could split that end of the tank off with if you dont the fry will more than likely got eaten. Feeding the fry BBs is best if yo have some if not some very finely crushed flake Good Luck

best not to breed them in a community tank it stress's the parents to much if you set-up a spear tank for the rams there would be less chance of them eating the eggs. But if you have a male and female bristlenose atleast 80mm long and a cave with 1 hole just a bit bigger than the bristlenose so it can just fit through they will be the easiest to breed

what other fish do you have in the tank The kribs wont eat the fry the kribs are cichlids and like all cichlids the can do damage to you other fish when they come near the eggs. I would split the tank so they had their own part (mum dad and eggs-fry) if you intend to breed them in future i would setup a breeding tank for them

they would be about 4-5weeks old at that size

That's abit much for you isn't it all you do is go over there bring them back to your house and put them in your tank list them on trade me. Somebody win's the auction you don't even have to send out your phone number trade me does that catch the fish put in the bag and take the money. now that nor hard is it..... While the guy in Hornby has to do 95% of the work with the fish Get the pair breeding raise the fry do all the water changes hatch the BBs Pay the power bill for all of his tanks (heaps) how many tanks do you have running?? about 4 The split should be about 85% for him and 15% for you illusionz_NZ do you think that is a bit closer

when i was there it was $5 for you because you were just selling them on and $4 for everyone else as that was what i was told

Yea they do live at the cashmere end of colombo st.

the couple in the press that live in colombo st have lied about what they said. They said they brought the glos from organism when the didn't because they got them from the guy that i know for $5 each. they also said that they breed them which is not true all the fish they sell are brought from the guy i know and sold on trade me for 2 - 3 times the price. Sorry i keep saying "the guy i know" but i don't want to give out his name. there are other people on this forum who know this too

I used daltons aquatic mix covered with bedding sand and the plants are growing well

i just got a visit from Biosecurity they asked me if i had them as the found my phone number at the guy i know's place who bred them so they tried telling me i had them. Even when i said i did not have them they still said they had to look at all my tanks because they found my phone number. Also watch out if you have normal danios with the glo danios they will want to kill them aswell

I Know the guy that got raided at 7am yesterday and when i was talking to him that is what he told me.

if Biosecurity were to come to peoples homes Is there any way we could stop them commimg in. Do they need a warrent to search peoples houses (like the police do) or can they just come in an search.

i still dont know what is so bad about them

YEP does sound a bit strange me ringing one of the breeders but i know a few feople with alot of them i was just seeing if it was him or not.
