Depending on the temperature of the tank, bristlenose will cope with cooler temperatures. I used to have one in a goldfish tank inside and it went well. If you have a well insulated home it should be fine.

To get both sides to bunch together, tie another knot around all at the top, just below the original knot Tease out the individual strands of wool Here is one I prepared earlier :lol:

Cut through the strands at the opposite end to the knot It will look like this.

I have been playing. Note I had to use green gardening twine as I currently do not have any wool Pretend it is acrylic wool ok? 8) First, wrap the wool around a book. Size depends on how long you want your mop to be (and how deep the tank) Then tie a knot at one end

The only time you have over-filtered your tank is when the fish are having trouble swimming against the current

Thanks for adding that Zev, I forgot I have a bit of poly holding mine up. You will also have to do a bit of squishing and holding down of the wool for a few minutes at first to get it waterlogged enough so the strands stay underwater

Still relatively new compared to how many years people have been putting fish in aquaria

I would choose a few corydoras and a bristlenose, Ancistrus. Corys like to be in a group.

I would hope they would read things and decide to improve their service! Of course, they have to recognise their service is poor in the first place :roll: There is a big difference between a good salesperson and a pushy one.

Wrap the wool multiple times around a book. Thread a separate bit of wool through one end and tie in a knot to hold all the threads together in a bunch. Cut through the threads at the other end and you have a mop. Tease out the individual strands of ply to make it bushier.

Sorry, that doesn't make sense to me phoenix44. Could you put it another way? :-?

We would prefer members to tell us the places they get good service from, so others will know the good shops. Saying bad things "because none of the staff would frequent this forum" is not very nice and they have no way to defend themselves. Remember the rules re posts intending to create a reaction, show disrespect or personal attacks.

Wattle and pine are both well known triggers for allergies :-?

You can use goldfish food for tropicals. It will not harm them.

What sort of error? Are they too large? You can email them to me if you want and I will put them up for you.

Do they have the right voltage?

Is Goldfish fish food a definite no - no for tropical fish? No found recipe for ox heart with the veges & hard boiled egg yoke and the link for the obtaining a meal worm culture. R these two just treats oor can feed once - twice a week? Treats once or twice a week are fine Gave a small piece of zuccinni and the guppys loved it Try also cucumber, peas (remove the shells) and other greens The ox heart & meal worms...can I feed to the angel fish & Platy as sharing the same tank? Yes Im not over feeding them but would it be advisable to get a cat fish to tidy up the left overs ? Always pays to have bottom, middle and top dwellers.

Everything is yellow here. Between the pine and the wattle we have patients coming in for hay fever injections and antihistamine pills :roll: Although it is all over the ponds and daphnia containers, I don't have it in my aquarium (thanks to the lid)

I confess I have not visited since the seahorse people took it over. Sounds like a visit is in order. Will arrange a club outing I think. :bounce:

Black acrylic. The dark colours show up the eggs.

You can feed grated ox heart but only as the occasional treat. Guppies are fine on varied flake foods. You have to be careful as a little heart goes a long way and will easily pollute the water if you feed too much of it.

It's hard to tell eh Jude? :lol:

Eewwww yuck :roll:

Pics? 8)

Hi Pipefish. Where in Picton are you? The seahorse place on the foreshore?
