  1. I was going to suggest some fine plastic mesh shaped into a box to fit over the top. I had some barbs totally strip a huge stargrass plant within hours of it being introduced to the tank (overnight)
  2. We hope to join in on those once I am fit to travel long distances again. We had planned to go to the Art Deco event in Napier but will have to wait until next year. We saw a number of those cars pass through here too. Grant is out this morning doing computer jobs. He went in his 1928 Chrysler 52.
  3. We have people releasing rudd and tench into the Taylor Dam :an!gry Each time the whole thing has to be sprayed and drained - killing everything else &c:ry
  4. I edited the first post to Dakota (I am assuming you are correct )

    octopi

    Or dry and fluffy after a losing battle with the carpet &c:ry
  6. Not quite but a good thought A familiar (or imp) is an attendant subordinate demon in the form of an animal. So they took a shape that looked familiar.
  7. So it didn't happen overnight but it did happen? :slfg: Cogratulations
  8. We do not keep a list. Fish registered in the breeding scheme are listed in the Aquarium World magazine but many who breed on a large scale do not enter this scheme. Others do not wish to be named due to security reasons. If there is a particular species you are looking for then advertise in the Wanted section.

    octopi

    Ours was given to us by a fisherman who found it caught in his net. It was only about 15cm from tentacle tip to opposite tentacle tip. When in the tank you couldn't see it as it hid in the sand and changed colour to match. Unless it blinked, you had no idea where it was.

    octopi

    Yes, and no. They are little escape artists! :slfg:
  11. That Riwaka place is very interesting. I was lucky enough to be shown through it.
  12. Get her interested in them too and let her choose her own.
  13. simian is no longer frequenting this forum.

    The What's Up? thread.

    The Foxy Morons came second at Quiz Night tonight - by HALF A MEASLY POINT!!! Still, got a $30 bar tab to add to the others. :bounce:
  15. Had to laugh - I saw "partial shed or near shed" and thought "You mean a car port?" :facepalm: :slfg: I know - :smot:
  16. How's about an article on this for the magazine? Hmmm?
  17. Those paper wasps (the German ones or are they different?) die from fly spray. Their sting is a nasty sharp one. I am allergic to bees but those wasps just hurt, no swelling or anything else. Ring your local council. They will have someone to send out.
  18. I gather I need not post the pic of your golden barbs then?
  19. I never noticed guinea pigs smell particularly. We kept ours outside in a large run with a wooden house at one end and it gets to -4 or more here in winter. We also kept some in the bottom of our bird aviary. They have fur - 16C isn't that cold. A better choice than rats or mice :thup:
  20. It works the same way as most other forums I belong to. What are you having trouble with? Email the pic to me (click on the email button at the bottom left of my post) and I will post it for you.
  21. If anyone from anywhere else would like to come for the weekend, let me know. I am sure we can find beds etc
