  3. does ane other country have fresh water mussels?(or even mussels at all)
  4. ok got that sorted how many will i need want to light a 100l tank dosent have to be 2 intense not for plants or anething but enuff to see the fish im thinking 4 x 3watt but then again i dont really know how bright this will be i wont be using diffusers so i can get a metal halide like point of veiw lighting effect where the light ripples across the sand on the bottom
  5. i think that may have been my fault and i apoligise to all who were offended . i do not know if the thread became worse after my post or if it was just my post that did it. :oops: sorry

  8. i recall 1 in the claudelands mall not sure which 1 that was or even if it worth a look
  9. they are good at hiding i rarely ever see 1 of my frogs unless there is food in there . houdini is now so tame he bites my hand as soon as it goes in there thinking i have food even when i feed the parpadise fish he will eat ane fish food i drop near him or take it straight out of my hand
  10. olly, where did u grow up frostfish u dont see them all that often
  11. sounds like the stuff just had it in my frog tank and in the old minow tank died off after a while tho
  12. another interesting plant i have seen is a type of duckweed but bigger with longer roots and its red on top fadind to green .redwood aquatics gave me some a while back all gone now tho
  13. u should find out the salinity of the water theyu are in now and try to match it
  14. grow heaps of val and let it twist around the top of the tank lol
  15. cool there is some of that on trademe ,not too keen on java moss tends to grow every where over the tank would 2x 30w tubes be enuff to attem pt water lillies or another bigger plant remember the sand is white and does a lopt for reflection of light?
  16. or use seed raising mix this has no added nutrients
  17. http://www.google.co.nz/search?sourceid=navclient&aq=t&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4HPAA_enNZ256NZ256&q=bicolor+blenny is it this?
  18. hi just after ideas for plants for my 160l goldfish tank , there are fake plants in there already but want to get some real 1s lighting is 1x30w tube could be upgraded to 2x30w substrate mt somers sand . i want something different other thasn oxy weed or val maybe a large plant like a waterlily or something . have also thort about using twisted willow branch as these will grow roots under water and leaves out of the tank ane ideas appreiciated ps plants that they are less likely to eat would also be a good starting point
  19. soak it in bleach that should kill it off
  20. salt can help whitespot but the tonic will kill it quickly but will turn ur water blue temporarily just follow the instructions carefully and make sure u remove ane carbon from ur filter otherwise it wont work
  21. i seen some garbage gang stickers today dont know if this counts but i havent seen them in years
  22. i think they had eels last year just not the sharks
