A-town...

you sure they havent just been sucked out by another fish even baby fish can peck at each other causinginfection which i guess could lead to eye loss?

wow nice looking tank you have there! bristlenose can be alright. I had a pair of golden black eyed bns in and they were fine. they are now in a diff breeding tank so put two of the off spring in the main planted tank the lil male was fine but the female stripped all the swords and apontogeon :evil: other wise good fish also ottocinclus are good for planted tanks

yea bloomin ottos aways latch on to my discus to have had to take them out! do you kno if your butterfly plecs are a male and female.awesome looking tank 8)

got that bad boy goin today quite an effective lil external filter. you get it started at hme freeding frenzy? lol :lol:

wHaT? ahahahah hilerious

nice pics you have there

on the fish list about 3-4years ago they were selling "snow" guppies and the were whitey blue albinos. the ones that are on the sheets now called snows are white tails with black through them

ohhh nice good thing youve put this topic under the diseases page I thort a pic of your mum wuda appeared but no such sign yet

with a 4 year warranty I guess you couldnt go wrong? jbl generally stock good products and at $180 new for tank up to 500litres thats a bargain!

all leads down to bad fish keepin a-proph you sure you feeding them enough why dont you feed them the 10,000 guppies you breeding ahahahaha nah seriously though havent you tried praziquintal yet?

nice 8) .....would love to see a video of feeding time got any???

I knew of one lady that had her goldfish in a heated tank wit trops including bristlenose and ther temp was 26c they seemed to handle it and the growth was extremely quick! they reached adult size within a year! but would expect to reduce life expectancy dramitically!

lovely set up there redshaw the yellows are coming along beautifully! as for that planted did you sort out a new bulb for it?

would love to see everyones breeding and raising set ups with fighters!

i rang up hollywood fish farm one day asking for furcatus rainbows and the lady said no they only have boesmani rainbows and salmon reds I said no dwarf furcatus she then replied again no sorry.this was ok as they had not been on the list for about 3-4weeks. the following day i decided to go look at fish shops to find hff had a tank full of the furcatus rainbows I was after but i guess you cant expect them to know everything huh :roll:

yea albino fish cant see aswell if you compare albino senegal to normal bichir there is a big difference also in tetra siamese fighting fish dont like albino neon tetra but are usually fine with normal ones

maybe you should just buy 10 of each sounds good to me !

yea i had some in my tank with 2 t5 lighting on and still didnt grow :evil:

Blue phantom plecos sound like a good idea to me lol....thats if you have the money lying around for some also some species of synodontis can tolerate high ph. If you can get hold of cuckoo synos they would be a good idea also

also that looks like a racoon in the background? we dont have racoons in nz do we?

will try dig em up tomorow and find them in the draws

when we get shipped them up to sell at jansens they come with info sheets from the people down south that are breeding them for human consuption. on the sheet it talks about not adding chlorine remover as it can basically paralize them. they stay alive but cant move and eventualy die after a couple of days. Also temp is another major part in it all that hate warmth we had a few die an the temp was 19-20 degrees the fish room was getting to warm and we couldnt cool it apart from turning air conditioning on. And from what I know talking to the people we get them of most chemicals can kill them eg algae fix amonia, remover ph up down ect.....someone correct me if im wrong. cheers

that cray you had in there you say it died? do you add chlorine remover to the water if so that can kill them

i thought mine would be big enough it gets ferts when I remember and has t5 lighting hopefully will flower soon :roll: any ideas that will make it flower? :-?

ive got some onion weed in my garden if you wana put that in your tanks rhys :lol:
