hi guys, yes i do tend to talk too much when it comes to any animal topic or even just about life in general we do have an account with the national bank it is Living Art - 06 0491 0064112 25 this is for the butterfly house and other future projects we have had donations of a few food parcels to save me eating any more "weetbix" we are still working on a plan to subdivide some sections on the park to sell and get rid of the mortgages it is only one mortgagee who is pursuing us - 2 days to D day so may get something done in that time to all those that have helped even with your thoughts and words THANK YOU VERY MUCH from us both and all the animals

welcome to the forums sadly animals/fish like humans can have their preferences for people even exhibiting jealousy over a person at least things are back to normal

that is expensive but then breeding a constant supply of shrimp and mysis might be expensive or was that to cover the cost of a boat for collecting the food in the wild costs me 2 hours every 2 weeks to collect mysis and shrimp locally about a 20 litre bucket full

easy to keep so long as you have a supply of live food to help wean them onto frozens

crested weedfish we had for 15months

:lol: :lol: to the point and totally correct

i never take anything personally DJ as we are all entitled to our opinions and are free to express them totally agree with the sentiments expressed about inexperienced keepers and certain species ie: crawl before you walk before you run

mention the TV and gannets in just playing with you

try the waimapu stream luke or any stream emptying into the habour kaituna too

IMO keeping a sea dragon in a tank would be as immoral as keeping seahorses in a tank, all relative to the size of the tank and being able to supply live food for them til they can be adjusted to frozen food have had them before, not the leafy ones but the bigger one that trawlers bring up sometimes there are maybe more around than have been recorded as they are so hard to find with their camouflage maybe the little thing you found was a weedfish there are several species found in coastal water, young sea dragons look the same as adults just with smaller appendages

campbell live filming tuesday showing wednesday night better go to the op shop for a suit to wear or i could just dig out the big shoes and old clown tramp outfit good idea bedazzled the original plan was to get rid of mortgage and gift the place to a charitable trust so that it could always stay here for the local community

as rebecca said alan then you know they will be fine with new owners amazing the morphing process congrats and good luck

the ones adverised on that site are indeed mysis shrimp smaller than freshwater/brackish shrimp can be hard to breed in a captive environment

thanks ryan - maybe some WOMD bummer on the power outage ants we went through the same thing a few months back the publicity has bought some offers of help from here and locally to help source some finance, the fingers and legs are crossed, but the time frame is short if it comes to the crunch it looks like all of the fish are sorted your response has been overwhelming it is in times of real adversity when real people stand up thank you to all mark

if you catch a fish in nz waters that is not under the quota system i imagine it will be legal to keep as there is no law to cover it and you didn't import it illegally

bring me back a silverback thanks bulldogod gotta have that attitude bedazzled otherwise life can be a drag, no i am not a transvestite
