Hi Members, I just purchase a EBJD from pet store, its around 4inch. I just wondering are 4 inch fish mature? will they sprawn? has any one got them sprawn before? does the out come of an EBJD xJD work? I'm really excited and cant wait to experimint! :bounce: I would like to say THANK YOU DAVID R he did direct me to the fish.

All the best Jenniferh"

:lol: :lol: yep! that is another way of slavging us men around! \during giving birth, women tend to thinks they done the hardship (which they did) BUT! after that most expect the man to do the hard yard for life( maybe a pay back)I know i did, example1: feed the baby with milk at 3am, tuck blanket for bubba all nite!..I end up doing it for the last 2 half years now! :lol: :lol:

Thxs guys, the fish was brought from a friend, as they were adult already, anyway I keeping my tiny little eyes on the Chocolate cichlids I'am pointing the finger at them! as Chinese new year I'm empty pocket any moment, I thinking of scraping my 280lt and getting 6ft tank once my bankl roll is healthy!

YEAR Of the Tiger!! Celebration on Chinese new year, as superstitious to the first 3 days or some people take them seriously up to the fist month! DAY BEFORE NEW YEAR: pay all you debt, finish off maintenance around your house, cleaning & tidy up your house, and finally get a new hair cut!! NEW YEAR DAY: Avoid spending any money before 12pm. If you did spend money (which i did spend on the roses & gift for the wife!) meaning: all year around your money will be out of your pocket! Avoid every1 and that meant every1..girlfriend, friends,relative (Excluding people living in the house with you) you Do Not want to see them or hear them!! Do Not let them get their footstep to your property boundary!(on guard) Why?: Other people may bring their bad luck to your house, you might will end up with their bad luck throughout out the whole year.. :evil: :evil: Avoid any1 coming to your place borrowing or taking somethings! As many Asian people say Fish & Water represent wealth & health. there for buying fish from some1 else on year day is like stealing that person luck & wealth from them and gift to yourself. *wht a greed! :evil: ( I sold my fish on trade me, email the guy not to come on Sunday (new year day!) on Facking Sunday he turn up wanting the fishhh!!! He was an Asian man! so am I!! WFT!! telling me he drive a long way to get here to pick up the fish! :evil: :evil: My email was clear DOT NOT pick up the fish from Sunday -Wednesday! told him to come back another day he wouldn't! WTF!!! :evil: so my brother have to came out & give him a blast "NO is NO, I'm counting to 3 you dont!!(@@@??) so off he when! Man wht a drama, so far I scoring 2/3 hehehe :lol: DAY 2: now you can go spending money, shopping, gambling(which I'm trying to get out!) on Chinese new year Asian love to gamble to win cash! winning is good luck, if losing oh well throwing your bad luck away! (another greed) hehehe :lol: Finally you can have guest at your place and go visiting all family & friends, You will wishing them a happy new year with lucks, wealth & Health..DONT FORGET to bring with you the red money bag! when you have guest or visiting friends & family be nice and tips their children's with a red money bag contain money" not lollies! Age can be from 1st month to 20years old child. money can be any amount you willing, (I had a big sack of $5 and wopp it out to a line of nephew & nieces (I am empty pocket now!) DAY 3: dress up and take your wife & kids to the temple to pray ( i guess Asian people like me will only step in churches/temple once a year!) is that bad or Good? :roll: We pray for all the goodness, for our kids & family their safe & health, and if you own a business make sure to pray for great income.. So happy New Year and wishing all FNZAS members for Health & Wealth with many luck throughout out the "year of the Tiger! by the way it;s bad luck or what 1 of my Flying FOXX is dead this morning!!(dammn it!!) Jack.

FLying Foxxxx! I wake up this morning and 1 of my flying fox was dead..murder by one of the fish in the in tank! :evil: A quick autopsy before I rush to work, both eyes and internal gut has been taken.. Conclusion: Heavy stock community..Old aging. I had them in the CTank for 3 years now, both FFox were great, I enjoy watching them shooting from one end to end.. I still have 1 FFox remain and he will be remove out to a smaller tank when i get home 2nite! "Life get aggressively when there over population"

I would think a trailer is good enought I would of use my Hilux if i have no trailer, just pad it up & tie it right and most important drive carefully no road race!!

CooL PhOto...

Hi I just notice one of my female JD with a pop belly? big lump poking out at the bottom.. I dont know wht is it? the JD is only about 12-14cm, it's sprawnning time? OR SOME DIEASE? I havnt feed the fish since this morning.. The fish swimming find every look ok... Thank you members.

Wow And the fish looked so mints cond..excellent coulors showing..

Congrat! again Wok for the second sprawn, just wondering was it EBJD x BGJD sprawn? or jst standard JD?, Iam still trying to get hold of a male EBJD to sprawn.

Congrats! That is amazing out come! :roll:

daphnia are a struggle to me.., I end up with some white little tiny bugs that swim all around the bin, and loads of wiggle worms..I guess they are good enough for the fish to feed on .

Hi could members plse advise me its all right to feed tropical fish with shrimp meat? I tear up some cook prawn and feeding it to my fish, they eat well..but I want to feed them more & more..just worries they might DIE..feeding prawn meat ok? :roll:

lol :lol: that funny maaxim. I wonder why my wife alway said to me, you rather sit out side waiting & watching for you fishes sprawning rather in bed with me..lol

When every time you go fish browsing on the net, and always leave work unfinish.. Tomorrow is another day! and the next Day is another tomorrow..." :roll:

:bounce: Hey Members I seeking for a male jack Dempsey, iam base in Auckland.. any chance if some one could help me out? thanks you

:bounce: changing your tank water: connect your garden hose into your kitchen purifier tap and let it run it will fill your tank slowly that would solve your chlorine pros & temp 0c. I think you are over killing with spot treatment chemical now, I had the problm before jst need to dose twice and changing tank water 3 days in a row. best to keep the fish calm no STRESS as the disease get worse.. put some bacteria enhancer into your tank tht could help since you vac & replacing alots of water.. increase temp is good, *changing tank water PEOPLE they dont realise 50% pure tape water is too much chlorine..then trying to increasing the temp quickly to achevie their correct temp.. :evil: booom the hot temp will activeate the chlorine quicker.. the fish gill & skin start to cook (WHITE BURN SPOT)
