  1. some snakenecks only come out of the water when no-one is around watching i dealt with 2 snakenecks that had been kept in only water for 6 years no basking area, 2 normal flourescents and fed only oxheart as that is how they were told to keep them on purchase they were like picking up 2 sponges sadly the tank cracked a few months later, all the water leaked out and the 2 turtles died as their shells weren't strong enough and collapsed onto their lungs turtles shells are effectively their rib cage give them the option of basking, correct lighting and diet
  2. bummer bulldogod probably in the garden somewhere unless cat, dog, hawk, ferret around will go for shelter tonight look tomorrow morning in sunny areas for it basking

    fish deaths

    old saying is "if you have livestock, you also have dead stock" sometimes fish can die of natural causes it may be nothing or the start of something if all water parameters check out fine it maybe parasitic look closely at remaining fish and observe them for changes in personalities etc

  7. the jardini might hurt him just priced the fibreglass 20litre kit of epoxy anvd 20 sq metres of cloth is $628 incl gst does anyone know if this is a fair price?
  8. are you talking probing the vent? if so you need to know what you are doing or you can do some damage also the males can retract their bits even further the best way is to enjoy keeping the lizards if they breed it is a bonus
  9. the amazing thing with the larger predators in the wild is that they do indeed gorge themselves and then not feed for awhile the large fish eat larger prey and then hang around digesting it the jardini will stuff himself until the food is hanging out of his mouth then spend 4 hours trying to swallow it he has put on some size in the big tank henny baby
