I'll try and do that tamboe sue

:oops: thankyou ...I have a lot of fun with the camera, have recently been getting more experimental with the settings.............and taking a few more non-fish pics

he's a 'newage loach' Pegasus....he prefers his duvet :lol:

got this pic of my clown loach having a wee nap ....he looked so cute click pic for full size image sue

congratulations Nick - how many babies in what size tank? what do you have available? Ideally you can feed microworms and baby brine shrimp....realistically you can feed the liquid egg layers fry food, very finely ground flake (into very fine dust) Depending on the number of babies you need to do small w/changes often - the frequency of feeding and the leftover fry food fouls the water quickly and the babies are more sensitive to poor water quality. good luck with them sue

Just got the latest copy of the Aquarium World. What an interesting magazine it is.....full of articles, photos and ideas - thankyou sue

cool....that's a reasonable number of surviving fry Ira. What's the plant in the tank? don't think I've seen that in the lfs up here? sue

what a wonderful collection of fish photos Rob what camera did you take them on? specially love that pic of the columbian pleco with the mouth details.....it's awesome sue

hi franny have you tested for ammonia/nitrite? sue

hi there and welcome chimera .....pretty active saltwater section here at the forum and for bits and pieces for sale, wanted, exchange etc here hope you enjoy yourself at the forum....there's a pretty chatty group meets in the chat room most nights just after 9pm sue

love the photos Ira....Congratulations :lol: the babies look like they're doing really well, how old are they now? sue

hiya mouse Sorry to hear about your pigeon discus. .....hey have you tested your pH in the tank recently? I was reading about a pH crash sending fish into a total panic type behaviour. Friend of mine has a one-eyed cichlid and he has no problems in the tank.....she just makes sure that there's nothing aggro in there with him. good luck sue

hi Lyn - welcome to the forum sue

:lol: saw a female up here in one of the lfs Caryl if you were interested in breeding them.......... there could be a market for such a rare fish o/seas sue

:lol: awesome photos caryl .....love to see some more sue

is he eating morz? If you can separate him from the other fish and feed him little and often .....he may eat frozen bloodworms if he's not interested in other things and let us know how he's doing sue

hi Mousiekm - welcome to the forum check out planaria on the net......imo that's what that sounds like. they're a flat white worm that seems to appear when the tank is a little overfed. Some fish eat them but most don't seem interested. Increase the water changes and do a few thorough gravel cleans with the siphon .....and watch how much you are feeding the fish and turtle. I've had them in my fry tanks when I've been a little overenthusiastic with the fry food.....they didn't seem to do any harm to the fish and disappeared once I stopped overfeeding take care sue

that's really awesome inter...congratulations sue

hiya doch...welcome to the forum what sort of camera did you get? I use the macro setting on mine. If you're going to use the flash make sure you're on an angle then you won't get flash reflection on the glass If you're taking pics in the daytime be careful of the amount of daylight on the glass......it reflects the surroundings like a mirror. Clean the glass before you start....nothing worse than taking a really cool pic and finding water marks on it Clean the algae off the inside of the tank before you start ....it shows in the pics good luck sue

Congratulations Ira.....keep us posted sue

hi Dave you should feel right at home here among the rest of us fishoholics :lol: doesn't seem to take long for the tanks to start breeding does it sue

hi there richie had this problem with my 29 gall tank too.....added another filter as I was only running one aquaclear 150 and it seems to have sorted the problem. I do twice weekly smaller w/changes in there as there's a lot of bottom feeders who are more comfortable with the substrate being ultraclean sue

hi bikie girl good luck with the next lot of eggs sue

don't know what you guys are talking about ......I don't have MTS...........I just have ummmmm :oops: a few fish tanks sue :lol: ....... :-? 5 is NOT MTS ..............................is it?

they're available occassionally up here in Whangarei too.....have had a couple in the tank for the last yr - very inoffensive little characters .....look very much like a bit of dead leaf ...till you put some frozen bloodworms into the tank and then they're off.......hovering round - totally ignoring the other fish in pursuit of their favourite food sue
