Once you have rested from all that hard work, you might like to tie Java moss or fern to the pot.

Welcome to the forums

My doctor has 5 kids, the youngest is in his late 20's and none of them have ever needed any fillings or dental work! :-? I had my wisdom teeth out as an adult. I lost 2 fillings while pregnant with my 2nd child and while he was having his heart surgery. They said pregnancy and stress can cause this :roll: I also have problems due to tetracycline treatments I had as a teen. I do not like the needles but hate the noise even more (and I don't mean me or the dentist screaming. Me cos it hurts, him cos he got kicked by me :lol: ) I also hate the vibrations from the drills, especially the slow one!

If both of them are laying the eggs then they are both females. If one is doing the laying and the other following along behind fertilising them, then you have a pair. The slightest disturbance will upset the angels and they will probably eat the eggs.

I hate to have to tell you this but several of your fish are not suitable for your tank as they grow too large. Common plecs grow over 30cm (and quickly). They need at least a 250L tank. Kissing gouramis grow up to 15cm too.

My husband had most of his teeth removed (all together) by an oral surgeon using the sedation method rather than GA. We had some lengthy conversations after they were removed, he discussed after-care with the nurse etc but had no memory of it the next day. He remembered walking into the hospital but nothing else until he woke up on the sofa. He took 2 days off work cos they said he had to and wasn't allowed to drive but, apart from dozing off and on the first day, was up and working on computers the next day. I am from the older generation who referred to the dental clinic as The Murder House - for good reason! Thanks to some horrific dental work inflicted upon me as a child, without the fancy anaesthetics, high speed drills etc they have today, I avoid going to the dentist until the pain gets too much.

Any chance of a photo Jaide?

Our street isn't on it either

I've never seen my gouramis anywhere near the bottom. They are definitely mid to top dwellers.

It will get easier once the roots are more established. I do not vacuum too closely to plant bases.

Hi and welcome. I hope you find the site useful

Hi and welcome back

Welcome back Jaydee

Still thinking about it. I re-read the books I love so don't want to hand them on :lol: I will have to search the bookcases for one I can bear to part with. They are all my friends!

I had a magazine bounce back from Critters Pet Shop, which is the one I think you mean, with "Gone - No Address" on it. Does anyone know if they have closed or moved on? The White Pages has a shop of the same name in Mangorai Rd, Strandon, New Plymouth. I wonder if this is the same place and they moved. If so, how come the postie didn't redirect it? :-?

It isn't a drawing of a 5 legged spider by any chance is it? :lol:

Please do wok. I don't think we have a copy.

Don't quote me but I would think the brichardi was the problem more than the heater. If it was the heater I would expect it to wipe out all the fish together. The faulty heater may have caused added stress to the fish if the temperature fluctuated, making them more of a target to the brichardi as well, and prone to white spot.

Hi and welcome. The filter was full of good bacteria but if it just sitting running in an empty tank the bacteria will die off as they have nothing to feed on (ie fish waste). If it is a separate filter, I would suggest running it on your established tank until you are ready to add fish to the new one. Then it will stay established. Have a look here to see what we mean by cycling.

Welcome.

Are you sure another family member hasn't helped themselves? :-? :roll:

I have no intention of letting my fish know it is Christmas or they will all expect presents!

They can be bred, and live, quite happily without salt but do have a preference for some. Their original habitat was tidal waters so they got a mix of fresh and salt. Some of their genes might remember this

Don't know about mealworms but when I had them years ago the kids loved feeding them garden worms.

Mollies do appreciate a little salt.
