Puntius denisonii Red-line Torpedo Barb
-
hmmm. it looks like it may have some keyhole cichlid blood in it too
-
So the parents were hybids with mixed genetics then.

Thats like saying aulonocara sp. stuartgranti maleri red is the same as Aulonocara stuartgranti (Cobue) but just a different colour or golden bristlenose catfish are the same as brown bristlenose catfish and the difference is probably a sex thing. A rather naive assumption IMO
-
Does it look similar to this ? If so its a long finned peppered cory which are relatively common these days.
-
I am not trying to cause an argument either but I wouldn't class a strain as pure after only two generations and i certainly wouldn't use the word "resembling" in my definition. eg I could cross two separate species of Aulonocara and get all the offspring to "resemble the parents" but they would be far from a "pure strain"
-
Not even close and thats why is so hard to get "pure strains" of fish in NZ
-
Yup, it dyed very quickly :lol:

Flourish excel makes BBA purdy

I use pipi and oyster shells in my sumps and canister filters. In some tanks I have crushed shells mixed with the substrate. If you have concrete water tanks you probably wont need to add anything.
-
I could probably spare 1 Nymphoides indica and 1 Eleocharis dulcis although its in my outside pond so is dormant at this time of year. Limnophila aromatica I used to have but dont any longer try P44 Hygrophila angustifolia http://www.trademe.co.nz/pets-animals/f ... 641250.htm

I have a few different Nepenthes species that I am hoping will flower this spring/summer If they do I will save you some seeds

They are good mates and often hang out together. Here's another pic

Not the best photo but the gold nugget is 13-14cm

Yesterday I purchased some copper fish bling for above the 8 footer. Now I am debating if I should highlight them with 1 or 2 spotlights or if that will deflect too much attention from the tank. Who else has fish bling? Show us ya bling
-
I purchased it as a fingerling from Animal Antics in Tauranga when I was there for a work seminar in November 2008. I will try for an in tank photo but I don't see it out very often now that its older.
