My lips are sealed!! :lol:

Only if you get caught

So what makes you think I have never seen it before? :lol: That is my temporary tank. It sits on the coffee table and gets quite a bit of direct sunlight - which is why that algae is over it 8)

I don't think it is legal to sell live tubifex these days. Might be wrong though

I have always tried to live by "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". I am also proud to say that, despite a few rough times, I now have two well adjusted, wage earning, young adults who are a credit to their parents. It could so easily have been different! :-?

We can use beach sand here if we take it as far above the waterline as possible. Anything lower has too much shell and it makes the tanks quite alkaline. Other beaches can have less shell.

You mean like this?
-
Yeah, he wants some mates - preferably female ones
-
Nothing will eat it. It may disappear on its own once the tank gets established and stabilised. Remove as much as possible then try blacking out the tank for 3 or 4 days.

Hi Kev There are quite a few marine keepers in Wellington but not a specific "club" for marines.
-
Sounds like a type of algae. Just keep wiping it off and as the tank matures and fully cycles, and the plants grow, the algae should disappear.

Where were the parents! If my daughter had turned up with a horse in tow I would want to know who it belonged to And if she had stolen it, I would have taken her to the cops myself and demanded they at least process her and lock her up for a few hours (to give her a fright) and then she would be made to pay for the damage (or work it off if she had no money).

Any pics and stuff for the magazine?

I'm pleased to hear the tank is temporary as goldfish are very messy and fast growing. They will need at least 150L. Looks like a normal fish to me. Are you sure it is a "he"? At this time of year, and the warmer water, it may be a she filling with eggs ready to spawn in a couple of months.

I remember our guinea pigs being killed by a stoat or weasel when I was a child. They were in a cage out in the back paddock and no chance of escape. As Living Art said, they looked like they had been flattened by a steamroller with just fur and feet left (probably the bladder too but I was young and not looking that closely). :evil:

Not all of them do alanmin. Congratulations Broms2. Hope all remain well. Love the name Cody by the way although my daughter, who is a teacher, say all the Cody's she has known have been little terrors! :lol: Does baby sis have a name yet?
-
My fish never liked tiger worms and I am told they have a bitter taste (not wanting to taste them and see) but see if your fish will eat them.

Hi and welcome from another Caryl (even if the spelling differs)
-
Like what? Barks, meaows? :lol:
-
They are good too as they have rounded edges with no sharp bits for fish to catch themselves on. Perhaps you would like to join the Marlborough Aquarium Club at their next meeting?

Not greywacke, can't remember what it is though

That is a plant that grows bushier if pruned regularly.

Ones that are perfectly safe to put in your aquarium
