I just thought they needed a person for it or is that for the trout? And don't go at me saying 'of course it is legal'. How would I know, can't even find them on the net. Chris-
-
I think it would be a matter of what water conditions they need (ph, kh etc). I would think you could keep them in a tank if it was legal.

You can buy cold water guppies from shops. Though I'm not sure on bringing ones that have been in warm water to cold water. Chris-

Breeding Bristlenose Catfish - Ancistrus species
Chris.L replied to dambarwa's topic in General Breeding
I had 2 males and 2 females in a 3ft tank. I had one lot, I gave away 1 male and 1 female which I think was the breeding pair ! Then later on the female died, I got another and they have never bred since ! There babies are so cute. I would love another female. -
What about Mussels?
-
Damn I want those Wild Heckels and Wild Green! Whats there bodies like? Could maybe get some as my early christmas present if you still have some in.
-
Thanks a lot guys. Brian - what do you put in the tank to feed them? ok so I will get an internal filter, skimmer, tank.
-
Hey greg, Goodluck keeping discus. I have 4 myself. Chris-
-
mm .. I have been thinking about making a DIY skimmer. Brian - what instructions did you follow? How easy was it? Chris-
-
yes but, why wouldn't a tank (say 3ft) just be run on a filter? caryl did hers like this and it survived for along time aswell as an airbubble thing to keep it oxygenated?
-
Air pump ?
-
Doesn't seem to be working now !

Poor fish !

Hey, Have any of you checked out World of Water's new site? It's really worth having a look at. Has pricing on fish they have in-stock, etc. Would love the Red Snakeskin Discus for $90 but $$$ is a bit low (rockpool aquarium )! www.worldofwater.co.nz Chris-
-
Yes. Im waiting till tomorrow (gee that's a big wait ) to see if there is anything. I went to Jansen's today and checked out their sand and protein skimmers. Coral Sand = $18 for 4kg, $34.95 for 10kg. Protein Skimmer = Lowest $95.95 = Highest $395.95. Pies, when you said about the skimmer not having a pump, what pump do you need for them? I'm still not sure on the sized tank I need. I thought 4ft but that's gonne be a huge amount of sand that I will need Chris-

Lovely fish Andrew. A lot of colours in them.
-
Damn I'm still in need of a tank!! someone help me out
-
hmm, I think I might just go out and buy a cheap one for now. Pitty none of that would be cold water. What type is his sand?
-
Ive never read discus being 'Adult Size' in '4-5 Months'. Very few are even mature then.
-
how much is the sand? Pies - All I need is the tank and the equipment then I could get started! I don't know of anyone selling a tank yet ! Gotta wait for the T&E on Thursday :evil:. Are you going to try to ring the number and see what he has left? Chris-
-
Cheers Pies. I got those prices out of the T&E. Heres the phone number: (09)274-4717 Tho I don't know if he has anything left (I haven't rung). At the moment I'm just gonna stick to a rockpool one, and if my parents think it's worthwhile (as in spending that money), I might 'upgrade'. I am interested in the skimmer if he / she still has it and depending on the condition etc. The rock and sand sound like a good price as well. Chris
-
Are there any good prices in this: Marine Mandarin $50; Emperor Angelfish $200; Coral $50 ea; 2, Eheim Pump, $50 ea; Berlin Protein Skimmer $50; water filter $75; Arcadia, 250W $100; rock & sand $5 per kilo; access frm $5 ea
-
Wow thanks heaps Pies. I will get a skimmer then. About the filter - do you reckon I wouldn't need one in the tank? Whats some of the cheapest water pump / power heads and the brands that would work with this? oh, about the tank, i'm still stuck on what size to get. bigger, or smaller?
-
Thanks. I think I will still get coral sand, as if pies is correct, it keeps the bacteria alive. Im not sure about a skimmer though. Would it survive without one like Caryl's did? +, I don't know of anyone selling a fishtank (4ft or so) that is pretty cheap . When I left I could of got a 4ft for $25. Chris-
