does it have to be spent potting mix? and alan when you say line with plastic 3/4 an fill with potting mix do you mean fill to the top of to the 3/4 mark. i ask because if it fill all the way the the top 1/4 will rot as the timber is untreated.

Ok i might make up anothe smaller wooden box. they need to be blacked out aye?

it an old hamper box with an ice cream container in it. an should i put a lid on the ice cream container.

was having a quite play with the camera and came up with this. didn't really know where to put it so here will do. hope someone enjoys. Micro worms taken with a canon EOS 40D and macro lens

well iv added melafix and meth blue so hopefully no more deaths

cus i watch them and slowly fall asleep infront of the tank. i keep meaning to make a moon light.

Ryan yes something like that just no saddle lesions. Can i use meth blue and melafix at the same time?

i shifted some fish around from one of my other tank into they comm tank o and i got some rainbow threadfins. some times i turn there light on at like midnight as i go to bed. could this be stressing them?

I noticed one very small whit spot on one of my Cardinals a week ago and thought it might be white spot so kept an eye on it over the next few days and decided it wasn't. now i have had 3 cardinals die over the night, one i found still siting on the bottom in his last moments. I have done water tests for ph 7, Ammonia 0, Nitrate 0, Nitrite 0 ok so the questions are; If it is white spot will there be any evidence on the body once they are dead? What else could it be? there doesn't seem to be any damage or injures to the fish but there gills are red. Could it be not enough Oxygen in the tank? it is a planted 200l with one co2 diffuser running. Or something else in the water i cant test for?

Hope you enjoy

yea it is about 1 sec a little over just tested it.

i took 86 between me and my dad and a couple of other guys on the boat given the camera ago. Half of them look good and the chaff was just getting the hang of the whole underwater thing. when i talk about being a little slow i'm comparing it to our EOS 40d

as a normal camera it is ok; its response time for focusing is a bit slow the screen is nice and big you still have some degree of manual control i have a 600ic and a 700ic, the 600ic has a cracked screen from when i dropped it on the corner of a table(when it wasn't in its housing). When they are in ther housing they are very rugged. personally i think they are very good value for money, if you order them from the us online they are even cheaper again here's afew photos from my 600ic out at poor knights and my cat http://img235.imageshack.us/img235/4300/pict0008resizeddq9.jpg http://img66.imageshack.us/img66/727/pict0010resizedyb1.jpg http://img413.imageshack.us/img413/3996/pict0075resizedxw3.jpg http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/1848/pict0072resizedxo2.jpg http://img375.imageshack.us/img375/8955/pict0011resizedej9.jpg http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/4525/pict0084resizedxn8.jpg

i have two intova under water cameras i like them have a look at them at http://www.intova.net/intovaic500.html

very cool love the rays

in my tank i use white silica sand from placemakers, one bag covered my 3 foot tank at 3cm deep.

thanks for all the help

I was thinking of setting up a tank for Koura but i wanted to know a bit more about them afew questions i have are; how much flow do they need? and how much do they like? what other fish are good mates for them? What temp could i keep them at? any help will be appreciated muchly.

thank you guys looks like he is recovering

Ammonia showing 0.25ppm mayb on the edge of 0.5ppm could it be nitrites? i will also try adding some oxygen and ill do a water change any other suggestions?

i have had one kuhli loach die and another showing the same symptoms. They swim around near the surface and take air for there. then then seem to tire and drift to the bottom. They die in full colour but seem to have red gills any advice will be appreciated thanks

Saw some at Hollywoods in Mt Roskill last weekend for $40-50 or around that.

where is the best place to leave them?. i was think under my tank in the cabinet
