  1. it may not be your problem but a few years ago i had the same situation with a tank i was running we tried everything with no success, we eliminated every cause one by one until we were left with no reason for fish dying eventually i stripped the tank and changed the gravel and never had that problem again could only come to the conclusion it was the type of gravel we were using good luck
  2. promounced as chalseus, henward, or pink tailed shark fast growers and fast fish that is a nicely coloured example you've got there snookie
  3. ooh its new and shiny make sure you polish it once a week with Brasso
  4. probably not a good idea in a breeding setup, males could spend all their time fighting off their reflection and not doing the job with the females
  5. IHBR You may come to love Snookies sense of humour 8)
  6. we have had adult muscovy ducks taken on our pond, personally witnessed. Haven't managed to catch it yet to put in eel pool. at a rough guess, seen in dark by torchlight, it is 2metres and about 10 - 11kg
  7. if its the thread i was thinking of the aro was small and the person was advised that this could only be a temporary measure there is a lot of knowledge and experience within the forum members and sooner or later the right advice is given by someone to any questions on here as you have said some people should read books, but some people have trouble assimilating the info in books or they need a bit of reassurance. as Caryl has said even books contain conflicting info, especially some of the beginner type books, good books can be expensive or harder to find. sometimes it is an emergency and the correct info not available so the forum is here
  8. i have told you before that they won't let amber the goat into the movie theater seriously though toms lady is nice

  14. big eels you got the tank can do a 1.65m at about 7.5kg if you want a big fish that eats everything
  15. yes i leave them alone to climb out of container by themselves if they aren't strong enough to break out of the egg and into the water by themselves they usually have problems later on i only incubate about 80 eggs, leave about 100 to 200 in the ground
  16. i probably got the amount of water in vermiculite wrong and drowned the bottom layer of eggs theres no fool like an old fool :oops:
  17. always used potting mix, used vermiculite for the first time last year and had a lesser hatch rate
