  1. i can be shellfish shometimes :oops:
  2. is it defecating regularly? does it have a slight bump on its spine? are front and back legs paralysed? does it have trouble defecating? do back legs tremble slightly when it tries to move? does it have a hard lump in abdomen? (be very gentle when feeling) have you found a vet in your area?
  3. it possibly is, there is a good thread on here with some experiences and different treatment tried viewtopic.php?f=25&t=36651&p=432721&hilit=hole+in+the+head#p432721

  15. well that would be between you and the shop you could always try Phil
  16. looking at a clown loach the mouth is downward facing with little barbels this would suggest they sift through the substrate looking for live foods to eat which would make them primarily a carnivore with some vege content are most wild caught still? if so there is a possibility that some will not settle well to eating commercial foods just some thoughts
  17. my personal thoughts on this is that opening it up can lead to possible abuse by future members or conflict with lfs or wholesalers The ban on it is because in the past it has caused nothing but trouble, people losing money, a law suit, and the FNZAS being blamed when it was nothing to do with us! Phil is commercial so knows what he is doing, imports regularly, and is a recognised business to whom people could direct police or whoever if their business dealings with him went awry. this site is primarily the public face of the F.N.Z.A.S. and was setup to allow hobbyists to communicate with each other and help with problems they faced the F.N.Z.A.S also carries weight as a lobby group with some authorities in nz and therefore needs to be seen as non commercial, ie: for the hobby with no commercial interests whatsoever there are other avenues available to you to communicate with other fish keepers than through this website
