  2. you could try this in the back garden
  3. no it was a dog http://www.beehive.govt.nz/release/dogs ... iwi+refuge mustelids bite the back of head or neck from whakaangi landcare trust
  4. do you know how to run a FOWLR system ? might be cheaper to go out on a charter boat
  5. yes spoon should probably be an upper size limit on them the younger ones are best tasting but the older ones have to much mana to kill them they should have respect for how long they have managed to survive yes constructed the tank, cut down a large water tank cut it with a chainsaw, marked it for height i wanted laid it on its side then rolled as i cut best laugh was pulling the top off my son after it flopped on him then cut top edge out to put back on base tried open top but too much alge so put top back on cut window in out of 10mm acrylic
  6. i've got a few dead fish in the freezer can you return them for me?
  7. the ones i have seen from a few generaions of feral have been like a pale mottled or pale tortoiseshell in colouration
  8. or a large bucket if your lectures are longer well done
  9. personally i would cull, maybe from two linebred fish ie: too closely related
  10. the ones in the deep bush are a different animal to the average housecat hard to hunt and some get to a good size too
  11. another pet hate, cats in the bush :evil: feral cats have been feral longer than mustelids from this pdf http://www.es.govt.nz/Documents/Biosecu ... 20Cats.pdf
  12. would probably be my call too or a recessive gene
  13. still had black eyes, i woud expect an albino to have red or blue eyes? just a thought
  14. i think it is when they stop feeding and their eyes get bigger, most of the big ones in the stream have eyes like that phoenix, pwned, i just thought you missed the key
  15. yes the odd one about, plus heaps of galaxiads
  16. not albino hans, but a yellow one is in the stream, haven't caught it yet
  17. i think they have never been bred in captivity most of their breeding cycle is still a mystery
  18. look here for pic posting viewtopic.php?f=8&t=2406 and welcome to the forum
  19. one of the customers today is a keen hunter and eel fisher i had the water level down to try to clear the algae in the water i said i needed a photo to get a relative size of the big girl, so he said he would get in for me while i took the photo, he's about 6 foot 2 he then picked one up and said it's about 12kg i said thats not the one, so he looked some more and found her but couldn't hold her properly he estimates about 20kg and the biggest he has seen some of the others wanting a feed what has no legs and an arm my eel when its happy
  20. don't worry it won't make his eyes water
  21. Latest update:- the lady who purchased the tank recieved a cheque today for a full refund, she is waiting until it clears before ringing and thanking the shop in question many thanks to the shop for finally reolving this situation and also to the people who have maybe worked behind the scenes to help thank you aquafever for your offer so to the power of the forum and all who helped
