  5. It is with great sadness that a very good friend and mentor to many on this site and to the NZKA that Young Alan Wakelin has passed away. He has had a hard battle with cancer in the past few months, and like the battler he is, was smiling all the way... always looking on the bright side of life Alan... where ever you maybe now... keep breeding them killies This is from Rose "My darling Alan finally hung up his nets (he hated the term, passed over) last night, Tuesday 9th October, at 10-39pm, so peacefully. His battle so mightily fought and 1 day after his 66th birthday, and on the anniversary of his Mothers death, 35years ago. The children were here to share with me, his final breath, for which I am so grateful, as I would have been so frightened to have gone through this alone. His Funeral will be on Friday 12th Of October at 2pm at the Whakatane Presbyterian Church , where we were married 43years 6 months and 13 days ago,Til death do us part."
  6. the Fluval 03 series I still think is the best. but the 04 / 05 method of taking the pipes off is nice and quick. I would get some ehiem substrate to go in the 2 baskets. works a treat.. doesn't clog easily and you don't have to do any maintenance for around 12 months. :roll:
  7. provided it is dense plants like camboba or ambulia... and indian fern roots. Then yes... you won't need a grow out tank... but you will definitely get a lot less fry surviving. HTH

    Killie questions....

    Tim is a dodgey fella... buy 10 fish and you get more than 10 ask him for a little advice and he swamps you with an encyclopedia of information :-? want special Killies then he would make you join the NZKA and get free monthly newsletters with terrific information and who's doing what In my opinion...
  12. double dosing florish excell will kill twisted val and riccia. happened to me.
  13. Oh well. Guess you have to pick on matthew again :lol:

    Crossbreeding.

    to a fish entusiast.. yes it is bad. not really a good thing to do as if you were later to sell the offspring as albinos and they mate with another albino, you might get common GBA. If I was the buyer I would be pissed. So yes bad thing to do. Unless it was the last albino in NZ and you wanted to same the species. But that is a lot of dedicated work.

    22L tank

    I would put in a pair of Convicts. That way you get to see the cyle of life really quickly I have one at work and people like to see the fry in it. and they are always asking..."won't the parents eat the small fish?"
  20. chuck in a few wcmm They will definitely control mozzies. If you are lucky they would even breed and you can then sell the offspring
  21. If you want to see breeding then I would recommend a pair of convicts
