[discus is very skinny- where can get some worming tabs-tga]

Is the skinny one smaller than the others? You may find that the other two are bullying it - You may have more luck with it if you move it to another tank for a while.

[Is this seeds or a flower?]

Thanks for your reply guys - that link is very interesting... would explain why Afzelii is so hard to keep alive! (for me)

[Is this seeds or a flower?]

its what google calls a flower, looks like my one looked a few weeks ago.

Bummer - so I won't be able to get baby afzeli's? Stink!

[Is this seeds or a flower?]

This is on an Anubius Afzeli plant

Can someone tell me - Is this a seed pod or just a flower?

[Aqua one tanks ? vs juwel]

Condensation creates problems with the lighting in the Aquience tank. They also have quite a flimsy lid system.

do'h missed that :oops:

No worries... I'm sure that you, like others were focused on my nail art and missed that detail.

[The "Glued" Java Fern experiment (Pic heavy story)]

what kinda glue is it?

looks nice

Thanks! I am really stoked with how it turned out! The glue is a superglue but in gel form. There is a pic of the packaging.

[The "Glued" Java Fern experiment (Pic heavy story)]

Looks good. Those angels look like they would have pretty good looking offspring.

hmmmm... yeah, but they lay every 2nd week and the discus eat the every time. So I don't think we will be seeing any young unless I move the angels into a tank for themselves.

[The "Glued" Java Fern experiment (Pic heavy story)]

So ... Six weeks down the track and no adverse results from the glue.

Everything is going well except the poor Anubius barteri barteri has been hole punched by the clown loaches after the angels laid eggs on it! :an!gry

My vote goes to number 4 :thup:

Out of interest...

Did the mating or egg laying exercise damage your female's finnage?

[Hygrophila difformis - converting]

When I was growing it emersed I found that it did better if you put the cuttings in a glass of water until they grow roots, then plant submersed in good light. Nice plant submersed.

Thanks - I will give that a go

[Hygrophila difformis - converting]

Drown it and it will convert :lol:

That was my approach - 4 weeks down the track - plant has melted - no conversion.

[Hygrophila difformis - converting]

Can anyone tell me how to convert Hygrophila difformis (water wisteria) from emmersed to submersed? I can't seem to find any that has been grown submersed.

Am interested though, is the silver an image and yes before someone asks I know I am :smot:

WAY OFF TOPIC! lol!

[The "Glued" Java Fern experiment (Pic heavy story)]

Has anyone tried using super glue for attaching Java Fern (with success) to driftwood? Is it recommended?

[Reckon fish have emotions?]

Hi Luke ... in with GBA's only and not looking stressed.

[Reckon fish have emotions?]

How old is da breeding pair??how many times spawned? are they first time parents? if so; one of them is not mature yet n not ready

I have had them since they were about 3cm big (now about 12cm) Spawned every week, like clockwork for the past 3 months.

[Reckon fish have emotions?]

I suggest u separate them.

reasoning behind your suggestion?

[Reckon fish have emotions?]

I have a pair of discus that are laying eggs every Saturday, they fuss around them for a couple of days then either they eat them or someone else does ... this has been happening for about 3 months now.

Is this healthy? :dunno: If it was us humans we would be lining up for IVF or contacting an adoption agency by now - Has there been any research on the emotional stability of fish? Should I just let them carry on or should I separate them OR sell them to someone prepared to give them an environment to breed in?

So far I have moved them from my 200l to my 100l as the other discus were given them a hard time every time they laid. I used to see them laying and fertilizing and think "stupid fish didn't learn last week?" now my heart just sinks and I feel like I am preventing them from doing what comes naturally. :roll:
