  1. how's your discus, LYNDYLOO?
  2. I won!!! :bounce: aren't they beautiful! http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=226167843
  3. Miracle does happen, and hope it will happen this time for your little fellows as well.
  4. gee, that's sad . God bless them. Hope they'll recover.
  5. that's so true. never thought of that one. i'm guilty of killing at least 5 tetras and 12 guppies :oops:
  6. yeah, that's true. but normally, there will be fish loss in shipping. say if shipping 100 fish, maybe 5 - 10 will be dead on arrival, and that's just 10% of the fish shipped. But if I ship 2 fish and one of them died, that's a 50% loss :roll:
  7. here you go, Gold Fish Pagoda 2/117 Cascade Rd Pakaranga Auckland (09) 5763333 Mobile:(021) 0565958
  8. but you're far away from akl. so you ask them to ship? never had the gut to have fish shipped.
  9. Goldfish pagoda is only 5 mins drive from my place, why do you want to contact them?
  10. saw a few for sale on that site. and am bargaining with a few people. wish me good luck
  11. Yup, Gourami it is then. :bounce:
  12. actually, i'm thinking gourmaris might be an option?
  13. but i like the plants.... :roll:
  14. just googled them 8) firemouth looks very cute. but don't know where to buy them. never saw one at LFS or on "that" site.
  15. maybe not for now, the tank is well planted. got corrys, tetras, GBAs, flying foxes, clown loaches in it.
  16. just sold my guppies and swords. wanna have some big fish with some characters. any suggestions please? considered discus, but I have to travel too often, and my Mrs swears that she's going to kill them when I'm not home :oops: so need some fish that can handle weekly water changes (not every 2 days). cheers,
  17. thanks for the tips, Caryl. one more question, guys. How often should I clean the canister filter. That last time I cleaned it was one month ago. thanks,
  18. agecage, i got your PM. for some reason i tried to PM you, but the message just stayed in the outbox for for several hours now. $35 for the whole lot, you can come and pick them up tomorrow. cheers,
  19. sorry, wrong units used, should be GH 60ppm, NO3 20ppm, KH < 10ppm
  20. just went and saw Ron today. quite impressed with his fish and his passion in fish. got a test kit at Hollywood fish farm at discounted price. (they running a special at the moment, a kit including pH, NH4/NH3, NO2, GH/KH only cost $29). gave my water a full test just now. The last water change was 1 week ago. NH4/NH3 0, NO2 0, GH 60mg, KH < 10mg, NO3 20mg, pH 6.5 It looks like I'm ready for Discus?
  21. yeah, so true. I had my father-in-law to feed my fish for 3 weeks some time ago, he killed at least 3 of them. just some guppies, so it's not that heart-broken, but it's definitely going to be painful if it's discus.
  22. thanks, mate! thank you for the encouragement. I'm so into it now. but i need to get rid of my guppies and swords first though. can't wait! I may be away for one or two weeks overseas in a month time, and my Mrs just doesn't understand how fun the fish are. :roll: it looks like i'll have to start after coming back from overseas.
