Cheers Henward, the tank is over filtered with a fluval 205 on a 160L tank, but i will also be careful how much i'll feed at once. I'll give the "frozen fish dinner" a go, and see if he(she?) eats it. Thanks

My LHS in levin doesn't have the frozen heart mince i used to feed my Black Ghost Knife. He stocks this frozen food called frozen fish dinner. Would this be a suitable substitute? I accidentally left the good stuff out overnight, and my cats ate it ! I can't get to palmy for a few weeks, so i need a substitute for my BGK asap! Would fresh ox heart at the supermarket be fine, stripped of any fat? All help appreciated, many thanks 8)

I'm a bit cautious still, it is my wifes tank, and if any fish get lost, my name would be mud .

I wasn't sure whether to post this here, or under technical, but here goes anyway, In my wifes 100l bumble bee goby tank we have replaced the internal eheim 2008? with a JBL 120 canister filter. i have both running in the tank now, when would it be safe for me to remove the internal filter. The external filter hadn't been in use for about a year, and i added some new ceramic noodles into it. I was thinking of 2 weeks, would that be long enough?

Thats it, i must be blind to not have seen it, thanks zev

Same here, i carefully modified my AR850 tank and put a fluval 205 external filter in. Silent and efficient filtration. I put some photos on this forum somewhere on what mods i did to the tank, can't find them though

there are now photos on this page, not just a link offsite

My new impellor arrived in LHS last week, and my noisy filter problem is solved, no more noise, and better water throughput too. Not cheap at $38 for 1 impellor though

Phoenix, GBA for E. Yellow, sounds good, send me a PM, I might come through to PN this weekend dwalk,

Just added the rest of the photos, they are in the order that the photos were taken. Phoenix, Swap BGK for E. yellow?, nah, might consider a bird, one called Rusty!

The male is now in the cave, fanning the eggs with his fins. Below is a link to my photobucket album, where i have put some more photos of my 2 gba in the act.... http://s292.photobucket.com/albums/mm39/dwalkfish/GBA%20Breeding%202%20in%20cave/ Unfortunately, this tank holds my new BGK! This weeks job was to move the breeding GBA trio out...

Bump

I think the marbled hatchets will be a good fish for the top, so long as they aren't live food for the GBK. Other suggestions, anyone, for suitable fish for the mid level of the tank? Thanks all, dwalk

Any idea on how fast that they grow??? Excuse all the noob questions, i just want to look after him (her?) well. Any suggestions on what mid to surface level fish are suitable, I'm aiming for an exotic style tank, as opposed to a general community tank. Pearl gourami and the 2 bloodfin tetra will be moved soon. thanks, David

Would the Zebra loaches be ok in there with him long term? I take it i should move my younger and breeding GBA? Another bigger tank is ready and waiting, or i buy a nice 300L or so tank.
