  1. You have just reminded me that i need to sneak down to kaiteriteri to grab some sand for a new tank I am setting up for a pair of shellies from Jen. Pity you ran out of time to drop in. Maybe next time. Happy birthday to Grant and his Dad.
  2. yep your caves will be the same size. Its just your fish are too fat for them The caves in that photo are a little big if anything.
  3. Hopefully you will see something like this soon.
  4. Wow, They are some seriously obese catfish. If you don't get them into a more healthy condition you may well have health issues with them in the future. Good luck with the veges, mine wont touch them. :roll: If they were mine, I would only be feeding them once or twice a week until they lost a bit of "condition". They will get plenty of nutrients from the driftwood. From looking at your photos and your fanning descriptions, I would say that you have at least one male.
  5. Keep your other fish and don't be too disappointed if the L104 don't breed for you. They are not the easiest pleco's to get breeding. Having said that I hope you do manage it and I wish you luck.
  6. There is no joy in something artificial The joy comes from watching a living, growing, micro climate that you have created then filled with inhabitants of your selection that are happy , healthy and thriving
  7. Agreed... Most likely a smoked salmon but possibly an eel
  8. Stamen- anther, filament. Pistol-stigma, style, ovary. sepal. ovule. receptical
  9. +3 for slingshot I have almost everything with them internet, home phone and line rental.
  10. The most important thing is to give the red one to me But seriously feed it well, especially around the root zone.
  11. Sorry to hear this Not a good birthday present
  12. That sucks Sorry to hear about this. It seems the bigger the fish the more we get attached to them. Don't throw in the towel.
  13. Semantics and over moderation IMO :roll: :roll:
  14. So my implied swearing is different to your censored version of my implied swearing how ??
  15. Shoot... That really puts things in perspective
  16. I am looking at something like this to run the fishroom heaters and filters as well as our fridge and freezer. I still probably wouldn't to be able to run everything at once. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Business-farmi ... 796394.htm
  17. Awesome. That one looks to be quite big. What Ech is it ?
  18. You may be correct Zev, It may be a trait that only the males show. If so, what type of female is best to put with him or doesn't it matter? Hopefully someone can enlighten us. I also have this guy, is he more like yours Di ?
  19. Who is keeping crowntail guppies and who wants to sell me a female or 2 to put with this fella
  20. I have been meaning to buy a back up generator for a while. Now I am definitely going to get one very soon. Spare a thought for the LFS's that may have lost their entire livelyhood
  21. Ok, so jokes aside, this is more like what I want to achieve
  22. As p44 said, Not all need wood in their diet. The tank in the photo actually has 3 pieces of wood in it, they are at the other end of the tank from the stones and caves. I have decided to have a change around the following pic is my new inspiration. I especially like the gravel :lol:
  23. Thats a good thought Sophia, I might give it a try. Has your Windelov arrived yet?
  24. I think your on to something there P44. If all the rocks were flat everything would blend in much better. Its not a display tank but it still has to be pleasing to the eye. Ryan, a good pleco is always lurking in the shadows and not in your face and showing off like an African :lol:
