Hey, Just some photos of our Golden Ram =)

So the fact that they are small doesnt matter?

Hello, We have 6 young discus in our tank, And well, theres always at least one bully. If we remove one, another one will take the roll. They seem to be getting extremely violent towards each other ripping fins etc... Any ideas what might be causing it? our tank is well planted, 150L (we will be getting bigger tank as they get bigger) Thanks

ok, we may get the metal one then, thanks

We use pressurised CO2 system, yeh we were worry about the acidic thing... we asked the hollywood fish farm albany last week, they said mt Roskill may have it for $40 (CO2 one)

Hiya, our glass check valve didn't do much, and cause the water back flow... anyways, we need new check valve, but is it okay to use the regular check valve they sells in the shops here? Or do I have to get a proper check valve for CO2 setups and where?

yeh, I have look up online, pretty certain about it. :roll:

sorry for the late reply, want to treate for fresh water parasite and snails. I've learn about the use of copper at stage 1 chemistry, really interested in it when I have money to get one... got neon tetra diseases, theres no fishes die for that now, but hopefully kills the most of the parasites and snail.

has any one use Seachem Cupramine before?

i'll try that too next week, our aqaua plus is running out.

half year or longer,

yeh... :roll: but my lose means I can get more new fishes. :oops:

got no tv for ages, I wouldn't know what ad that is :roll:

i thought it removes ammonia etc?? I visited a fish shop in asia, they said more bacteria is good when fishes are sick?

yeh, cos the first time got the filter rate set to 113l/h, which was wrong. correction that we are using ELITE CRYSTAL FLO 40 CANISTER FILTER. with ammonia remover filer media. http://www.thereefshop.com.au/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=10&products_id=1661

ok here's the result with approx actual fish sizes too http://aqadvisor.com/AqAdvisor.php?AquTankName=vbn&AquListBoxTank=Choose&AquTankLength=73&AquTankDepth=45&AquTankHeight=42&FormSubmit=Update&AquListBoxFilter=User+Defined&AquTextFilterRate=430&AquListBoxFilter2=Choose&AquTextFilterRate2=N/A+&AquFilterString=&AquListBoxChooser=Cardinal+Tetra+(Paracheirodon+axelrodi)&AquTextBoxSize=&AquTextBoxQuantity=&AquTextBoxRemoveQuantity=&AlreadySelected=200909300090:1:0:,200909300207:3:1.57480314961:,200909300058:1:1.77165354331:,200909300058:1:1.1811023622:,200912011162:1:2.36220472441:,200909300045:1:2.75590551181:,200909300045:1:2.55905511811:,200909300045:1:1.57480314961:,200909300196:4:1.1811023622:,200909300196:1:1.57480314961:,200909300196:2:0.787401574803:,200909300039:3:0.984251968504:,200909300039:5:1.1811023622:&FilterMode=Display+all+species&AqTempUnit=C&AqVolUnit=L&AqLengthUnit=cm&AqSortType=cname&FilterQuantity=2&AqJuvMode=1&AqSpeciesWindowSize=short&AqSearchMode=simple and if it is all adult fish, it would be 225% over stock, but we are not, as we have young fishes not all adults. :bounce: updated* the filter is 430L/hr

that's a good calculator, but gonna take me ages to do that.... :roll: I'll ask my bf to do it, thanks

it's approx 32.48 inch. we got 35 gallonish so we are alright 8)

we heard it is ok to be a little over stock if it is heavy planted, and most of our fish are small. we aware that the clown loach and discus will grow big, but we are thinking to upgrade our tank in the future. forgot to mension we got 3 black line flying fox too(4~5cm) note: 2 clown loach 7cm each rummy nose 2~3cm discus 4cm and 3cm

we have 140l tank, but about 110l water in, external canister Filter, change 25% water once or twice a week, planted tank, co2 system stopped for 4 weeks now, 7 rummy nose, 2 small discus, 2 small clown loaches, 1 golden ram, 1 tiny clown loach, 1 6cm golden bristlenose pleco and now 8 cardinals tetra, was 13. we had 3 cardinals tetra died so far, included the pop eye guy, but he had that 1 pop eye for 3 weeks. 1 more cardinals tetra is dying as according to the description of the Neon Tetra Disease disease, losing colour, bent body, swimming oddly, I have been putting tonic, it kinda help him survive, despite that it should be flush down the toliet by now, but does not looking any better. :roll:

we had our tank set up already for half year or more now, just running out of our cycle, and bought TLC, just wondering what's the best to use that's all, since they are not very cheap >

What is the best brand for live bacteria?? I heard TLC is good, I just bought one, but it's every 20ml for 50 Litre What is the best one in the market in nz?

we have got 4 tetras died last 3 weeks, I just looked it up online, I think it is the so call Neon Tetra Disease. We also have school of rummy nose tetra, they are fine. we also got 1 cardinals tetra, it has a pop eye, sO i've been treating some tonic and some melafix saome days.... I've just look at his eye, which has been poping for more than 2 weeks, it just got worse. There's a worm like in the eye, but it's stilled and neon, it was there before, really small i thought was just caused by it's body nature, but now it looks like neon worm in the pop eye.... Well, any solutions to my fish problem?
