  1. so mdf boxes wouldn't get wet then?
  2. does your tank have a sump?
  3. doesn't your aviary have a roof on it?
  4. not the best thing to feed to hedgehogs http://www.hedgehogs.org/ http://www.petsonthenet.co.nz/hedgehog.htm
  5. http://www.finchsociety.org/cfa/livefood/flies.htm a discussion on feeding them to newts http://www.caudata.org/forum/showthread.php?t=62411
  6. are you pulling the wool? over our eyes taking maggots off a carcasse may be a source of infection depending what the animal died from use some dog food etc and grow your own
  7. i use a layer of bark, if birds feed on the ground on damp feed they can pass this on to the young in the nest young birds have a weaker immune system
  8. they slow down on feeding when they are colder if they get too warm you can end up with problems as well don't get a filter that puts too much flow in the tank as this can damage their gills
  9. some of our axolotls are kept in bathtubs outside that freeze over in frosts
  10. ensuring they are clean is the problem, some keep them in bran for a few days before feeding out
  11. not so much a matter of heating hang a 100 watt light bulb in sheltered back of aviary with perches near it gouldian finches don't have a down on them so get cold quickly they are only small birds and food they consume is used to heat their bodies on cold nights our long nights in winter mean they run out of internal heating the lighting allowed them to get to the food to recharge the heating system worked for me zebras should be able to handle a winter outdoors if they feed off a damp floor in winter they can get fungal infections in their nasal passages
  12. have you tried them on earthworms? how big are they and how are you housing them?
  13. now you are talking, so long as you have a reference to correlate you will get a positive ID
  14. only ever heated outdoors for foreign finches, not zebs though
  15. welcome to the forums fishlover
  16. AMEN, praise the firenzenz
  17. it has a L number LA00 no firenzenz nothing subtle or maybe just a twisted sense of humor, i was quite taken with the fishes look but have too many bumblebees in the big tank and didn't want anyone selling it on because some of the fry ended up looking like this i have fed out them all in a closed systen like a tank sperm maybe able to circulate from stray males in the mix i tend to feel that some species and subspecies come from natural crosses that then go on to establish themselves i breed other species in seperate tanks
  18. nice raddfish are they a member of the caulifish fanily?
  19. basically take your pick and a few not in photo any pseudotropheus sp could make up the combination i am leaning to red shoulder x bumblebee or royal blue x bumblebee
