lots of flat rocks stacked up just ensure there are small enough gaps for the fry to live in and the biggies can't get into works in our big tank you may be surprised how many fry can survive
-

Local bird club used to have a judging night set up where some small tanks and fish were setup and people invited to judge them then were shown how they might be judged at a show, easier to do birds in cages opposed to fish in tanks the clups success depends on how driven the committee etc are and being able to find common ground between the tea and bikkie brigade and the youngies

sorry guys i think the water blaster may short the phone out better to use air at 3,000 PSI.

my guys are showing blue but area behind shoulder is the last to turn no other colour there yet want to bring some females up to put with young from the big fellow

i have some young (purchased as) royal blues just colouring up not all over blue yet time will tell, wish they would hurry as they are taking up tank space
-
my females are a straight greyish colour males have slightly more colour to them i don't kmow too much about them except they breed well
-
all i get is blub blub blub and the cold shoulder i like fish that aren't too noisy
-
how can a fish be so blue and not be sad or cold they are a beautiful fish hardest part of breeding malawis is making sure you keep track of the females as in a few species the females look alike
-
the royal blue we have the red shoulder have definite red patch on shoulder the flash can make it more yellow though it is really hard working from photos a slight angle on fish can make them look nore slender also lighting or mood can have an effect on the colour they appear even overseas sites have slight difference in colours and shapes of photos its got me beat sometimes best idea is to put a lot of clues together and make a choice

onus is on the pet shops and anyone else selling a turtle or any other animal to ensure it is going to an owner who understands and can provide all its basic needs and requirements
-
i usually range between 80 and 95% of eggs put down but i do just set up incubation and leave it till hatchtime left 10 nests inground this year, nothing hatched from those
-
going by photos is hard but on the site mentioned they are close to Aulonocara stuartgranti (Metangula) Aulonocara stuartgranti (Ntekete) in amongst the variants there is slight difference in individuals so who knows, all i know as these have been in a closed gene pool for a few years
