From what I've seen, most people seem to line their half barrels with black polythene. A small pump and filter is all you need to keep it clear. If the barrel is kept out of full sun it will rarely need water changes. Just top up the water as it evaporates. Two goldfish in a barrel would be plenty. Lots of plants too.

You have to start somewhere George and just because some weren't there, didn't mean they weren't interested. Do not be discouraged.

Go for quality, not quantity
-
Perfectly well thank you Mark and not interested in being caught. Here he is now. As you can see, no change

Ah must be in my area then 8) :lol:

Here is conference information: http://www.fnzas.org.nz/conference_2008_and_agm/ It has its official bit but we try to get that done as quickly as possible :lol: No show, too much to organise at the same time, but there is the possibility of seeing a few of the local club members' tanks. The gravel murk would have settled overnight You won't regret the darker gravel.

May be the substrate is too sharp for them and they wore off or used to be with tank mates who ate them.

I spent ages last night reading that site spoon recommended. Very funny (and informative) 8)

Conference is in NELSON but is hosted by the combined Tasman and Marlborough Clubs.

They came around this evening and I am afraid the balls Bud plays with were of more interest :lol: - Not to mention Bud himself, as he was free range at the time. Lang's wife was very taken with the Hengeli rasboras so are now considering tropical. The tank they have is too small for goldfish and the other options for cold water fish will not keep a 2 yr old's attention I don't think. Lang was also interested in guppies.

No, if it was sucking it wouldn't leak, it would overflow

You have been doing that Candy???

So that's what you've been up to. We wondered if you'd drowned in the floods. :-?

Hmm perhaps getting streaks pulled through tiny holes in a plastic cap isn't so bad afterall then :lol:
-
I saw a programme on TV where they had a guy in the UK cut off one of his dreadlocks so they could analyse it. What was growing, and living, in it was disgusting! :-? I get itchy just looking at them :lol: What do you have to do to "touch up" dreadlocks? I didn't realise anything had to be done to them. How do they make them in the first place? Sorry I can't recommend a place as I don't live in Auckland.

I got fed up with my Fluval 404 too and got a Jebo 819. Love it :lol:

Avatars get added, or changed, in your profile. Make sure you obey the size (both cm and kb) rules or it won't work.

Where does it say she agreed? :lol:

Our 3000th member. I have already informed her we expect a shout :lol:

Hi lang. There are some other Marlburians in here. What about joining the Marlborough Aquarium Club? Best way to start is to swap mature filter media from an established tank. Give me a PM or email and I can help you there, or you are welcome to visit. I am in Faulkland Drive phone if you want 578 9390

That's a lovely one Sarah.
-
Didn't you used to have 1 PC each?
-
Details please. What size is the tank? (dimensions) How long has it been set up? How many fish are in it and what sort? Have you done any water tests?
-
They would not go well together. A) as stated, BNs are tropical and need min 18+C B) Axies would eat them I think - or try. C) Despite seeing "coldwater guppies" for sale, they are tropical. Again, not below 18C If you want fish in with your axies, perhaps leopardfish or white clouds would be the answer. We need someone who keeps axies to tell us if they eat all fish or just slow ones
