  1. love the underwater light, where do you get those? and how do you make a moss wall??
  2. i think its terracotta, its in the garden secton of warehouse. its a pot with either a parrot or a knome attached to it. i thought it would look really nice as a main piece in a tank. thanks, i will look closer at it when im in there next
  3. from what ive read u have ur lights under the lid (ofcourse) what are they attached to? id like to make my own lid but how do i set up lights in it? i want normal lights for plants and a spot light one one place for the bbs feeds. any ideas?
  4. love the pic. Emo looks awesome. didnt realise they came in black and white! id love one but the complexity of a marine tank are too much for me! i to those of you who have marine tanks they are awesome. :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
  5. so would they be okay for 3-5days without feeding?
  6. what is the best type of sand to use builders or silica?? thanks it has gravel adn i want to give it something to burrow into. thanks heaps its about 25-30cm long and about as fat as a ladies ring finger at the most. what could i keep with it? its in a almost 2 foot tank. been byself for 10 years apart from once when another eel went in with it. thanks.
  7. i guess i could make up some nice little ones and my friend could just give them all one little block each morning.
  8. i was meaning a large one light a 500gram honey container, positoned in farthest corner from heater.
  9. i wasnt going full the iceblock up with food, just a bit so that if they are hungry when they have no other food then they can eat what is coming off the iceblock and they are bettas, and hungry all the time LOL .
  10. i hadnt thought about doing ti with decap shrimp. would they be okay if they only got feed once a day? at the moment my babies are getting fed twice a day with shrimp coz the shrimp live for ages and they eat them till they are gone adn once with decap. i feed them about 2 hours before lights out. my adults get shrimp twice a day and a sprinkle of decap. would they be okay if i freeze some shrimp and get the person to feed them a bit of that in the morning and with some decap. i wouldnt want them going hungry. i could be away up to 5 days.
  11. could i grow watercress in a tropical tank? where would i get some?
  12. i am planning to go away for a few days later in the year. im getting someone to feed my fish but am thinking about making an icecube for each of them with bloodworms and shrimp in it so that as it melts bits will come off for the fish to eat. i saw this done at orana park for the otters and at auckland zoo. wondered if the fish would like it. anyone done this??
  13. all i hve is blue and reds i want green, blacks, purples, yellow, strange combos
  14. thanks i will have to see if i can find it in the site
  15. BUGGER i live far from wgtn and woud cost a bucket to ship them. ahhh oh well have to get my local to get in some fish.
  16. how big do trevelly get? what about flounder?
  17. thats a good idea.. :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: sorry i like these things
  18. FOOD FISH not pets. (sorry mystic) i just wanted to know if anyone was breeding fish for the frypan.
  19. yea leave mystic alone. i have thought and think its far too much work involved. might get the rods out instead
  20. are koura eatable? would one get much off it?
  21. not eating pets mystic, same as eating chicken, pigs, sheep or beef. people raise then then eat them. same idea really. mmmm crays how to breed them in captivity?! fish is not cheap so just thought it might be an idea, esp if they BREED!
  22. ive got a really good idea i plan to get some thick Polystyrene and carve it up with mountains and valleys and paint it etc and silicon it to the bottom of the tank adn cover parts with different types of sand/gravel. and make up some walls and attach plants to it, so they are growing up in caves etc. once i get it sorted i will post some pics. prob put java fern in the caves. can anyone suggest another plant that attaches it self really well??
