a short video of the killifish and cherry barb tanks.

:nfs: what's the tank mate he's in with?

This is a second hand Juwel Rekord 60 tank. It's my first all in one tank. It's 600mm long by about 350mm high, 300mm front to back. Internal box type filter with 2 non juwel filter sponges and bionoodles inside, a 100watt heater. There's a Juwel Daylight 15w T8 bulb inside the lid. Bits and pieces Filter innards A little tank waits for a new stand to be built…. New stand takes shape Quirky detail courtesy of my husband Finished stand Went rock hunting today… scored these from Avondale Central Landscape supplies. They are large river pebbles.

I know but there isn't one for 'nice tank'

:nfs: I was about to comment that the more stem plants you have, the quicker you will get tired of it but then you pretty much said it yourself :sml2: :cofn:

so true :sml2: this is when you first started experimenting with hair dye

Oh look, after I found a cute photo of Ant as a baby, I found one of Livingart! here he is with his big brother, who also has the same hairstyle

or maybe it's that she gives birth to fishes. which makes Graham's notion even more concerning given that he thought she was a man :smln:

hmmmm.. interesting Zev, GrahamC has been picturing you as an elephant with a halo that sits on fishes....

Now that the parameters are as low as you say, you should test once a week while you are still stocking, and then when you are finished you may not even feel like testing at all. When I got my first test kit I was testing every few days and then weekly when I did water change, and now I rarely do. Every time I do now it's always fine. In saying this it doesn't mean you won't have unexplained fish deaths, or fish that suddenly get something wrong with them and have to be medicated, but your water is what I think everyone would consider healthy for fish.

that's because you haven't got him a girlfriend.... he thinks you're his girlfriend :sml2:

Graham, I'm guessing you pictured her looking rather like this ...

:spop:

my nitrates are usually very low like that

please put your location in your profile... thanks

Sam is patient at the beginning, then he waits till it's looking perfect, gets impatient or bored, and then takes it down again :slfg:

clearly they have mixed up fish with giraffes

that you used to piggy back around?

come on now rudies don't be naughty :smot: Liam, you owe us a picture of your black and white cat :spop:

fluffington... is this Anthony as a baby?

My fish have tended to have deeper colour with a darker background, or dark substrate, or dark plants.

Otos need green algae rather than wood, so I thought. Mine have had various algaes, and wood. This 6 never took to processed food or courgette unlike the original 2 who would suck onto an algae wafer and monopolise it so the corydora couldn't eat it. I wondered if it was something to do with the soft/hardness of the water, or maybe some other bacteria or algae they were getting too much of. I am not sure that I'll ever know. :dunno:

that picture of Romeo kitty cracks me up, he looks like the weirdo of the family :rotf: :love:

officially forever and ever?

the TM fees are going up 0.5% http://www.trademe.co.nz/community/anno ... e-increase it's not a whole lot but their excuse is definitely 'just because we can'
