:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: yahooooo no heaters ---we would all run around naked and so would the fish ....................... all jokes aside they are very nice fish and i realilise that we do have some very,very good breeders here .....its mainly the fish themselves ,how they look and show themselves. If only i was that good looking(but i am) :lol:

how the :evil: do you guys get these fish to look so good

well im to old to work(so they say) and too young for the pension -so most of the time i sit in front of this computer looking for more fish or tanks etc to buy cheaply . Being a solo dad is fun when you get to my age (just as old as mark(well maybe not)and just as ugly) looking after my daughter,Guppies (4 tanks) and selling trumpet bits(trumpetgear.co.nz) for my son as he lives in japan(talk to him every day on skype) he tells me, he and his lovely wife are comming home for a 2 weeks holiday and to set up a better fish system than the 1 have at the moment(all over the kitchen bench). So i guess my work is classed as a house person(for wont of a better word) and i do nothing all day long (BORING)

Hi are these called butterfly tails? nevermind the name --just drulllllllllllliiiinnnngggg. becareful my son for you have become the master

Hi re glosso----what is the correct lighting and has anyone got any to give to a newby for a small tank 60x30x25 high . Just breeding guppies and would like to try a fully planted tank. thanks for your time cheers Don

What awesome coloured fighters and i have been trying to bid on them on trademe but alas nothing yet -----all i can say is keep it up and i would like a poster if you do some, and some fish when i have the green stuff

Hi again never mind found it :roll: :roll:

Hi re the almond leave plants ----under what heading on trademe have you got them listed cheers Don

Hi re the glue for acrylic there is none -only solvant which melts the acrylic (tools used small bottle and a 10cm flexible injection needle)when joining together- best to get it done by the experts as if not done properly the join will break. cheers Don

Hi what i would like to know is how you get your pics so clear--what camera are you using or to be more precise what is the lens and are you using a ring flash or just a standard flash

Who is the guppy guru is tauranga??? as i need to buy just 2 real fancy males something nice. also to pick their brains re breeding. THANKS Don please contact me on [email protected]

Yep -re colours-your guess is as good as mine as they hold at least 3 lots of previous males :bounce: -have only just started to put them into separate tanks: aqua 510 display tank= 1 looks white tail(large) but under light turns a light pink and dark body with 7 females and at this stage 8 fry plus 1 cat .2 bristles suckers (small) 1.small tank red tail and 3 females 2.small tank whiteish mottel and 3 females 1 bristle (small) 3. mixed comunity tank about 80 of all sorts mainly plus small bristle need more breeding tanks :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: and i have just started about 2mths ago. i would like to have a go at breeding betta's but the set up is different plus i would then need the garage and as there is no power in there at the present.

welcome jazzyjeff you can come and pick up some guppy fry for free. cheers Don 5712282

Thanks for all the welcomes :lol: ,but how do i download a picture as i keep getting picture to big and i have made it as small as i can. My male is a long tail light blueish -female 1 has a coloured tail yellow and black n2 has a blue and black tail and n3 is still young yet so no colouring as yet but the father was a firey red male so its a wait and see.

Hi my name is Don(male 59) and have just started to try and breed guppys . 10 dead fish later(due to fungus-bad batch) i am finally working out the water chemistry. my son said i have to do something apart from looking after his website(trumpetgear.co.nz)in NZ, so he decided it had to be guppys (fool proof he said ) yea right -nothings fool proof these days due to you have to have the right chemicals for this that and the other,anyway guppys it is and 1 cory cat. All help is gratefully recieved. :roll:

Thanks for that- just got back from picking up my daughter(10) she keeps me young :roll:

well i better add my age and that will muck it up some more. :roll: male 59
