    :lol: nice :lol:

    yep 100% accurate. The females will never have that colour. I think my female has spawned tonight again
  4. phoenix44
    pink is not a colour! :evil:

    Bacon isn't typically cooked.
  6. phoenix44
    No, but im hoping you'd eat it dead.
  7. phoenix44
    That would depend on how you cooked it - Pig.

    No enemies Joe, you don't have to worry about that.
  9. phoenix44
    Definitely not glosso. What does it smell like?
  10. phoenix44
    Should be fine if you have space for the hypans to hide.

    3am feed? give them a break already. it won't be doing the metabolisms any good.
  12. phoenix44
    yeah, its perfectly fine. It takes them a few goes to start rearing the babies. youll get wrigglers - they will eat them - a few goes of that, and they'll start taking care of the babies. mine spawned this arvo as well.
  13. phoenix44
    That cannot be healthy for them.
  14. phoenix44
    Not sleepers... just males.
  15. phoenix44
    was about to update that. All the embryos died today I think. couple of ok ones, but i think ill let the parents do the care taking next time. I think the eggs might be light sensitive.
  16. phoenix44
    Mainly aggression. I would hate for you to have sudden losses like I had. Or put them all in a larger tank.
  17. phoenix44
    I would start separating them at this age. Any thing with a gill plate like that is a male. They will soon develop more colour and attitude!
  18. phoenix44
    awesome! That one is a boy.

    Nothing in that price range beats a Rhinox. Just because you think they don't look good , doesn't mean they are not good. They are fantastic value for money and won't be beaten on performance.
  20. phoenix44
    They have just been imported Joe.

    That floating bag method is not acclimatisation. The most important part of the process is the gradual acclimatisation of the fish into the new water; so that relates to the water conditions and not necessarily the temp. At least you know now; I have lost many hundreds of dollars worth of fish even after long periods of acclimatisation.

    I've been looking an installation sets too :lol: ill be calling up the supplier this week and talking to them and if I like the price ill get it locally. if not - http://cgi.ebay.com/EHEIM-16-22mm-INSTA ... 230752c38e 20 quid delivered is not bad. Won't even have to pay for it in NZD :lol:
  23. phoenix44
    What Eheim parts are you looking for specifically. They are quite expensive, but any NZ retailer can get them in. Absolutely everything is available. ebay is another good place.
  24. phoenix44
    lol well the second pic makes me certain that the fish is not 100% euptera. crossed with something but who knows what. __ Tank looks good though; bit sad about this part -
  25. phoenix44
    That fat one looks like it has dropsy. Others seem fine though. Point your spray bar upwards to create more water flow at the top. That should help with heavy breathing.
