welcome good luck with the importing

welcome there is an old saying if you have livestock, you also have dead stock part of the learning curve we all go through good luck with future fish keeping

well done simian

hermits when breeding approach each other and the male "tickles" the females legs and then puts his smaller legs inside her shell, they then both hop out of the shell and put their ventral surfaces together for a few seconds then get back into their shells quickly. hermits can also fight with each other over shells this is a more violent affair with tussling back and forth and shells being tipped over i hope they are breeding, good luck some species disperse eggs into the water, and some keep young in their shell

i don't do changes that big either maybe 500 litres max, just trickle it in through the sump usually

thank you for the clarification jolliolli

whats a full siphon ? :oops:

a fishy doughnut doesn't do it for me :evil:

i use polyurethane for sealing timber, safe once dry

only looks complicated because that is a sump on a marine tank on a freshwater system it is not that complicated, water in , pump out i find it cheaper than a canister with the same flow rate, also a lot more media area but then i make the sumps myself, if your getting one made probably better off with the canister

where the insects and oiliphant pics?

SNAP WELCOME Puffadragon

no more photos navarre ? the ones you've shown are neat

they can also contain filter media for a biological filter bigger than most canister filters

looking good its only overcrowded when the fish are jammed against the glass hans nice setup and mix of fish firenzenz

well done

that would be great also shows that you guys are really serious fish keepers with the fishes interest at heart good luck

i thought this was talking about the content of the thread or the wording of the original post and some of the posts in the topic were borderline and full of innuendo of a sexual nature, against the site guidelines we have to be specific with what we write as the written word does not allow for expressions of emotion, emphasis on particular words or inflections of voice - "yeah it was full of Innuendo" would have let the reader know exactly what was being talked about and that it was not aimed at the mods nowadays the word "nazi" is used too often by people who don't realise what it means to those who lived through the war or the generation that followed

thanks for the plug simian always seem to find enough one way or the other luke

i filled my water tank with fish too

the more information you give the better the diagnosis agrre with what has been said before, gut infection what is in the frozen mix ?

too many chemicals when i was younger 8) or just a death experience either way life is not meant to be taken too seriously :lol:
