The God of us Pastafarians You have not heard of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster?? http://www.venganza.org/ Can't say any more as religion is not to be discussed in these forums :lol:

It is sudden changes in pH that cause more problems rather than "incorrect" pH. Many fish these days are captive bred and have no idea they are supposed to be living in a different pH! 8) My Africans were all born and raised in 7.2pH as that was what the ChCh water was where the breeder lived. When I got them home they lived in 7.0 as that is what my tap water was. Again, they bred in this and seemed very happy.

Reminds me of the Flying Spaghetti Monster and his noodly appendage :lol:

Is there any way of getting rid of java/christmas moss?
Caryl replied to shell's topic in Aquatic Plants
Offer it for sale and it will probably all die off overnight! :lol: -
http://badmanstropicalfish.com/disease.html Have a look here at Gas Bubble Disease and see if it fits.

Could it have burned iteslf on the heaterstat?
-
I have never had a problem with aggressive males. Are you able to increase the number? This should help. They are a shoaling fish so the more you have the better behaved they will be.

ChCh is ideal for fish keeping generally. pH is altered by driftwood and peat (lowers), fish (bigger fish will tend to lower pH) and some rocks, like limestone, and shells (raise pH).
-
Just plug it back in and let the temp warm up at that pace
-
Hi Ranger. Plenty of fish keepers near you too.
-
Eventual adult size is mostly determined by how much they were fed as they were growing. If the fry were not fed enough it will permanently make them smaller, not matter what they eat as adults.
-
I think some of the fancier goldfish can be permanently damaged and always have trouble swimming up the right way. Since the fish was otherwise healthy and was not in pain (as far as anyone could tell) the owner decided the cork was a compromise - and it worked.
-
Could be the type of food they were fed, disease, or water quality. Without more details it is hard to say.

I assume you also don't have breasts. They shorten the distance you can reach into a tank considerably :lol:
-
Where in Marlborough are you heading? Perhaps we can set up a temporary tank here for you? Or hang your filters on my 4ft to keep the bacteria alive.
-
Are they blowing extra bubbles? :roll:

Hello! 8)
-
Not sure when those fish started to be called lambchop rasboras. They look like Hengeli rasboras to me. A beautiful fish. Like a small, more colourful, harlequin.

We have 5 vehicles - they just won't fit in the garage. One of the MX5's does now though I must say the reaction from the inspector was odd and I would be querying his boss.

I thought that was you in your avatar living art! 8)
-
If they're males it will take longer for them to mature than the females (if at all) :lol:
-
Here is our garage - after it was cleaned out :lol: Luckily we own our own house so don't get inspected.
-
We have several hundred temporary vineyard workers here at the moment. You walk the streets and hear all sorts of different languages. Very interesting.

Looking gorgeous!
