No No on the mixing of these 2 it will save on feeding the turtles if you do you won't have to feed the axys either as they will end up dead

our aro has been reluctant to eat since we got him so ive been feeding mice to get him going the Jardini grabbed a mouse today, but it was too big for his mouth, he swam around with the front half hanging out the aro lunged and took the front piece completely off, the jardini spent the next 2 hours sulking at the back of the tank

sorry for the comments Broms i only open my mouth to change feet ! i imagine you did some crawling to get that beauty, in the house even nice set up !

wow Broms you finally got a red male beardie, :lol: seems to have a few scales missing on the top though. is that from bumping on the glass or is the female giving him a hard time? :lol: looks well fed mate. thats not a house extension, it is a small home unit by itself congrats

sadly this has been done on fish in N.Z. before, was many years ago though.

we have the hot water bore, 52c , 9,000 gals per hour, i'll dig the pond Who's got the fish ?

i agree there are only 2 species, not colour fed i think these were bred to retain the red colouration of the young fish, they were only 2 1/2 footers though so still young

have seen some amazon aros called red tailed arowana on some sites they had red tails and fins and red edge on scales on flanks of body the red is not brilliant red like the asians though

if you put 2 pure white canaries together you have a chance of losing 50% of the chicks as there is a lethal gene in this recessive trait i think you probably could put 2 blues together and breed them, depending on the gene you should get all or mostly blue young, the only thing is you dont probably know how much line breeding or inbreeding has gone on to produce them breeding to a normal is the longer way round but maybe safer with 4 fish you maybe able to try both combinations of pairing but you will need to keep track of what is what in the young others more experienced may be able correct me if im wrong

should have added i always put some thread tape on the fittings helps cut down leakage problems

why do you need a normal to breed them with ? is it a recessive gene?

saw them in auckland chain stores, probably slightly better in the flesh than the top photo. were 98 each up there so i left them alone, walked away and thought about them all the way back to tauranga though good luck with the growing and breeding

i have used the nylex range on the smaller ehiem pumps now use the hansen range for 1 inch and up

have been given a berlin skimmer , but it is missing the foam trap does anyone have one or know of availability and price, thanks mark

and mummy too :oops:

when you set up your sand put a layer of a different colour down about 100mm (4 inches) when you see it on top you know they have dug and covered it up

if he doesnt make it out by himself, it is probably too weak to survive any way alanmin4304 has it right on the yolk sac, can take up to a week to go, we feed the young, guppy fry and shaved oxheart to start off others may have different first foods good luck

Aftershave keep water quality up and medication to inhibit fungal growth and bacterial buildup maybe salt, TLC or similar good luck

would leave out centipedes and any white tail spiders but rest you've listed are ok how old is water drag

WELCOME red arowanas are dearer than beardies

love the beardies good photos especially the male your breeding with thanks for photos

and got involved in the wildlife learn heaps b dude

yes the fish world cup won 4 years ago by the red arowana team representing asia gold in the high and long jump combined event for Scarletti leapagrandis

aviary, novalite 3 sides and roof, rollup zipped plastic fronts, under sand heating for ply hot boxes. fronts down on wet days, brought inside during colder months seems fine for beardies both species, blue tongues and waters when animals stay in hotboxes all day then time for indoors

NO but their parents would be harmless
