ring the bird lady in Pakuranga but yes you need to warm up the bird or it will die of cold maybe make a warm but not hot hot water bottle, cover with a thick layer of towels and sit the bird on top....see how he or she goes

agreement was reached in my household this afternoon so it will be happening when I find a bargain. But it won't be a 'big' tank, only about 60L or so.

:thup: :bounce: :bounce: I can't wait to see the photos :spop:

:rotf: *waits for next installment....... :spop:

very interesting!

I know but my household is not in agreement... will have to wait and see .... maybe his mind will change, maybe I will think of something else to want. :cofn:

first one or last one are both great

see Joe, all I had to do was give you a little nudge and you talked yourself into it :sml2: yes, and I'd rather pay $150 for the it. It's still only a 60ish litre tank after all, even if it's near new.

I'd move the loaches in there and get some more. However I have a very short time in which to persuade my husband who seems currently immovable. :an!gry

I would but they are $23 each and it wouldn't be fair on the fish to buy one.....a bit expensive for me. I was hoping you would buy some :bounce: I'm *thinking* of buying this http://www.trademe.co.nz/a.asp?id=510394865

bah, you've put me off going to VTNZ for my next warrant. Those are the sort of things that I worry about, but I also worry about getting failed on things a mechanic can make money off, as happened the last time. It seems you can't win with warrants unless you have a new car.

I saw licorice gourami today, sweet little stripey fish. :love:

They are sprouting now, that's what is confusing. Each crypt and anubias has a nice fresh green leaf or 2 or 3, and then over a week or so it the parts of the leaves that are catching light on a flat surface turn brown with slime. I will initiate Blanketland tomorrow. So am I cutting the light to upset the algae and stunt its growth, or am I putting the plants to sleep proper so they wake up and take off? Is it the low light that is causing this situation?

In the loach tank most plants are still thriving but the brown slimey algae is too. A week ago I cut the photoperiod back to 3 hours a day and today I cleaned a lot of the leaves myself. It's pretty thick and gross. How long shall I give it before covering the tank with a blanket? The cobwebby stuff seems to have gone now and I've moved the val out, all except some bits that trying to grow towards the windows that seem to be doing ok. Got more crypts coming to fill in the background too.

spent lots of money on clothes and things for the house today... was out nearly 12 hours and I'm pooped :yaw2:

it really takes the fun out of getting parcels when you have to go and pick them up

:happy1:

:happy2:

you could distract him and then take the fish....... noone will wonder why you went to gym with a bucket one day

that's actually a real bike, P44 is 12 feet tall

exactly as it should be in Cat World
