  1. fish keeping is trial and error everyone can have different experiences and fish like humans have different personalities if you are going to try something that may or may not work at least have an alternative worked out beforehand in case things go wrong
  2. why not do overflow like on the reef tank?
  3. why do you have to cut euro bracing? why not do overflow like on the reef tank?
  4. it could pay to ask on this forum if there are any experienced frog keepers in your area that could help with what is wrong or replacements good luck
  5. if tank is too warm frogs can suffer from fungal infections of the skin check the tank for warmth and if you are going to replace the taddies etc. best to wash it before putting anything new in there fungus is sometimes not noticeable on the frog but it coats the skin a frogs skin is porous and can allow sprays, toxins etc to be absorbed into the frogs metabolism, so don't clean tank with any bleach or disinfectant boiling water and a good scrub is best sorry for your experience with the frogs etc
  6. got to agree with buldogod but then we don't know your next door neighbour
  7. it may be from a rabid or premature locust sorry bull dog havent had that happen to me repto may know though

    Hi Im Melissa

    welcome the kids have left home so we are armlees and legless now
  11. iodine works well or salt baths twice a day after applying iodine leave turtle out of water for about 1/2 hour iodine ointment like Betadine works quite well or you can leave it and just keep an eye on the wound to make sure fungus doesn't develop
  12. welcome nice pics of the fish etc well done
  13. there was a little moth flying round my head i gave a little sniff and now i think it's dead i put in a finger to try to get it out but all the poking and prodding pushed it further up my snout i can feel it moving tickling my nasal hair time to fix the problem and squirt a can of Raid up there
  14. Aah the flying moth trick almost as good as the flying bumblebee, speeding motorbike, and open jacket trick but the flying moth trick is almost as difficult and not to be sniffed at 8) now comes the insertion of digit and snorting of nostril trick not to be watched by the weak stomached or performed by common cold sufferers :oops:
  15. i use 1 airstone or a sponge filter to create a soft flow in the tank all young reared with airstone, not too turbulent though and water changes too high a flow from a powered filter can damage the gills a little IMO
