  1. have about 45 fry now... about 35 in the last week
  2. We had a chahuahua for about 12 year, she lost control of her legs and couldnt walk except in pain. She had no control over her blader and almost none over her bowels. We took her in and I stayed with her while she recieved the injection and died. There was no pain for her at all and Im sure she knew what was happening... she smiled at me and my daughter as she close her eyes Yes I blubbered like a (better not say) but knew it was rite and that she was pleased we helped her out the only fair way we could
  3. and if it was you?? would you not prefer to forgo your pain Pain that stops you sleeping pain all the time and not one part of life that you can get the slightest enjoyment from To be honest, I think you would be cruel not to have it put down I understand totally the guilt but thats just your own selfishness Please dont take this personally, I do understand but you have to be fair and responsible
  4. as of 1 hour ago, I now have about 25 fry Billany... do you still want some, they would be young and not sexable?
  5. feel a bit better after a couple of Merlots Thanks people
  6. I will only PM and ask if people want help from now on unless I already "know"them all my details are now deleted and if it was allowed, I would change the name Yes, Im really annoyed about the way people try to take offence The only person I have let down... through lack of time... is Spink and Im feeling so bad about that Now wheres a tree and some rope
  7. that people in here are trying to take offence at anything others try to ask or say. Is it the faze of moon or maybe people worried about the recession or is it that people want to be unhappy? :roll:
  8. Number 2 as shes smiling for the camera and has had a good look at what your doing (did sha ask any questions?) and number 6 with the reflection... may be not the best pose but the reflection adds something to me I need to get better camera gear
  9. Most Killis will jump as a lot of fish will I have never lost any Killis other than the gardneri family Clowns and Australe (its a female in the photo) I have never seen one jump
  10. Im yet to see one that big to be honest Ryan maybe 30mm would be more common Great shots mate really great
  11. I too thought that to use a machine that has been developed for producing sealed units would be obvious. I will keep my thoughts on this to myself and resist offering any help. The subject is highly interesting to me as along with running my glass company, I spend about another 20 hours a week in developing methods of glazing Double Glazed Units Good luck with your own ideas and sorry to upset you when offering 40 odd years of experiance in the trade
  12. in order for it to be efficient it would need to be sealed so a tank within another would have little value. There would also be problems with fogging and dirt In my trade we see these type of things quite often
  13. Now with a DGU (double glazed unit) costing roughly $150 plus GST per square meter and a minimum charge of .3 of a meter per unit and thats using 5mm glass plus all edges need to be covered and totally supported and you can only use nonacidic silicones, I belive the costs of such a tank would vastly out way the savings in power I realise that you mentioned that with tough in cheek but a 600 x 300 x 300 would cost $354 for the units only No if you want say a 6fter in 10mm glass and bought it from me, I could think about a trip to Japan? How many do you want
  14. southernguuurl Your tastes are similar to mine (you dont support the Blues do you ? )
  15. I also have most the tanks with poly on the lids...
  16. Simple thing is that thickness make almost no difference The fugure I have relate to R Value which is the amount of energy lost from Air on one side to air on the other (water would have similar properties) 5mm glass has an R Value of .17 and 12mm has an R Value of .18 There are glass products that will help reflect the heat back in but the costs are huge in comparison to clear For a start of, there are almost no off cuts as they are simply too dear to throw out so at the retail level where off cuts of 5mm can sell from $10 to $40 per meter, sunergy could possibly sell for $200
  17. PM me your address and I will willingly (if not too far away) come and take the wriglers away
  18. or you could use a mop where the eggs are easy to see
  19. yes they will but you will not get too many fry need some more Java Im guessing The fry are small and dont grow very fast You could try hatching them as per normal and putting them in a screw top jar and float that in your tank?
  20. thats great Ryan Ive just put a mop in with mine again
  21. just the Golds (Aquarium strain) and the wild form I have the golds and only a single female if you wanted to give them a go?
