he looks good , he is a nice looking butterfly

If you want to stick them in the pond you could try sticking some netting over the top so the kiongfishers cant get in, also there seems to be alot more fry once they hatch out than the amount of eggs that you can see, you could also go and get a plastic storage container from somewhere like briscoes/ the warehouse and then get a small air pump and sponge filter and trasfer the eggs + water from the tank there currently in???

-
I could make a tui ad out of this
-
and what it should actually look like if it was a rock
-
Seeing as this is supposed to be a female fighter tank how come I dont see any female fighters :lol: i need some of that rotola for my tank (just not from your algae infested one :evil: ) \/-(sam read below)
-
NEVAR!!!!!!11 blue backgrounds look better than black IMO, Who would of known :lol: :lol: :lol: The rotola will add a nice contrast once it starts going red (that is if it goes red )
-
its looking alright (I CAN SEE ALGAE :evil:), So whats the plant in the back?? its some kind of rotola..... and whats the string for??
-
it's barley straw , I think its filamentous algae its caused by excessive nutrients (you can tell by pulling it apart which is similar to wet wool) try getting copper sulfate, dissolve it in water then spray it directly onto the floating algae with a plastic spray bottle (it corrodes metal) although its toxic to goldfish so it might not be an option http://ohioline.osu.edu/a-fact/pdf/A_3_09.pdf have a read though this as well
-
there looking good and the blalck/green ones sound interesting
-
using a finger is probably the easiest to get them IMO
-
Yes, take the girl out once that have 'done the deed' and take the father out once they start to swim horizontal, this is also when you start to feed them HTH
-
Crossing a hm with a hmpk gives stronger branching (which is required for HM's) to the fish alough im not sure about tail lengths but i think that pk is recessive to the delta tails :-? HTH
-
Well it looks like one of these will do alright in my 2fter then thanks for that site as well
-
If you have a girl, stick her in a container and he will flare at her or a mirror, Deltas, super deltas and Halfmoons are all extensions of the same tail type so would be best to breed together also dont breed deltas with veil tails as veil tails are dominant over other tail types
-
Thanks
-
There also called banana plants
-
Nymphoides aquatica It's named because of its roots which are banana shaped (how original :roll: :lol: )
-
Bath tubs help to grow live food to feed lotsa fish , i.e daphnia/small critters Or he means that you can stick 500 babies in a bathtub inside with a heater :-?
-
That driftwood is awesome It looks cgood now and will look better once the plant fill in :bounce: :bounce:
-
Do you know where I could get one from ??
-
I saw them is Aus when i was there and was wondering if we can get them here?? they send leaves up to the surface and have a bulb like thing at the base of it
-
I managed to condition mine on that, but try to make the blood worms seem 'live' (get some tweezers and make them chase it), When you put them back in your other tank they kinda get a bit depressed for a few days so it might be wise to seperate them good luck with breeding them
