Either that or his wallet was weighing him down :roll:

I hand feed my cichlids. They don't seem to mind :roll:

put the heater in a jug and see what the water temp gets up to. I located my heater underneath my spray bar so that the water would get heated and pushed around the tank.

Who Me? :roll: Nah.. couldn't of been :roll:

The Kids wouldn't share :lol:

I guess this is one of the reasons I use Fluval. They have taps to turn off and disconnect or the whole unit seals itself. :lol:

I'd go with 1tsp everytime you do a water change. but for a short time only.

Comes down to personal preference once you compare the technical specs on what you want. Price plays a part too.

I can safely say that Family and I are safe and well back home. Chocolate Cichilds are acclimatising well in their new home but there was some bickering in the car with few frayed fins. However they are swimming around seeing the sights of the tank. WELL DONE HBAS. GREAT CONFERENCE Big congrats to ZEV for coming up with the Idea of passports. Now where's caryl with the photos. Time to get some sleep.. too much laughing oh oh oh... diamonds go to South African, and..... BUZZ BUZZZ

Yep.. A great time to be had by all The dinner at the Aquarium topped things off very nicely. too bad for those that did not attend

Hey Zev.... Thats a thought... could do with some dinner cause my Dad would of already had his :lol: Nah... just have to stop and unload the family and then I will head out to Hastings 15mins? are you crazy... it should be less than 10mins from Greenmeadows to Hastings I mean they now have those 2 massive ramps at the Meannee Rd intersection so no need to slow down.. only speed up

I should be in Napier by 6pm Hastings by 7.00pm

I would think they would be. But then again I am known to be wrong on occasions

I wouldn't do any water changes till everything is ok, or you will be syphoning out your meds (IMHO) Don't put the carbon in the filter till after the cure is done and after a water change. As Alanmin4304 said... TREAT THE WHOLE TANK

The meetings are normally a fun casual affair where we hear what each member is doing to there tanks and answer any questions or solve problems that they may have. near the end we have tea, coffee, biscuits and juice as well. Come and join us one day and meet other fish enthusiasts.

The best selection of Killies can be got by joining up with the New Zealand Killifish Association (NZKA) Good prices too and lots of help from members.

Auckland Fishkeepers will be meeting at: Time: 7.30pm When: Tuesday 12 June 2007 Where: Green Bay Community House Barron Dr Behind New World Supermarket (Park in the new carpark and the meeting is right next door)

In my opinion it would be the comet which is attacking your Fantails. Fantails IMHO should not be kept with fantails as they are the fastest moving fish in the tank and get first dibs on any food in the tank. However it is possible to keep one comet with fantails. This I have done in the past without much problems.

Pond liner would be the cheapest way to build a pond Mechanical filtration. use netting over the top of the pond to stop birds eating fish. use a lot of plants on the edges to keep nutrients levels low so low level of algae growth. Have a look at Caryls thread on her pond for ideas as well

make sure that you don't see the skeleton. Glass cats are the exception here :lol:

Your Discus will adjust to your existing pH of your tap water. As Alan said.. throw away your pH adjusting stuff.. I was in a similar situation to you.. wasted my money :-? just keep up with the water changes.

FNZAS Conference If you are a fish club member then you can attend. This year it is held in Napier

Jansens - Botany, Mt Eden, Glenfield, Lincoln Rd Henderson, Silverdale? Goldfish Pagoda - Pakuranga Four Seasons - Glen innes Bird Barn - Lincoln Rd Henderson

but clown loaches grow really really slow.. so they could be ok in a tank that size. However it does depend on what size they are now
