We totally redecorated our lounge and re-carpeted with the tank in situ and had no problems whatsoever. Make sure the area is well ventilated. We used water based paint.

I am sure you can find someone else to go with bdspider.

I went to see this film and thoroughly enjoyed it. Weta Workshops did an outsdtanding job on the graphics as usual. Good story. My parents were impressed with the costumes and said they got the WWII era exactly right. Mum also loved the scenery and the castles. Said it was Scotland and could even name many of the castles. She was startled to read at the end that it was shot at Lake Wakatipu :lol: If you have the time - go and see this. Good family film. I was intrigued to discover most of the young ones in the theatre queue were there to see I Am Legend rather than The Water Horse which was showing at the same time.

Very nice

Coming along very nicely 8)

Congratulations! How did she manage to be graceful? :lol: Now the fun starts...

Cool :lol: Me, Grant, Ken and Deidre will be there plus our new member Mrs Frog 8)

What about the unaffiliated but interested?

It has been done before but who cares? :lol: We have the fish plus Bud the Wonder Budgie. All other pets now gone, along with the kids

Closest is Dunedin I'm afraid

I would check the ammonia levels. If they are at the top a lot you might also need more oxygen. How many in what size tank? How often are you doing water changes?

Yes fish have a sense of smell. Salmon apparently have a highly developed one.

They will grow too big for a 2ft tank. The others are fine.

I have never blanched cucumber, just wash (to remove residue - you don't know where they've been if not organic) slice and add.

I just hose it off, give it a light scrub with an old nail brush, hose it off again then add it to the tank. Check out the nooks and crannys for little critters, excess sand, or egg sacs.

Depends what sort of barb

They look great don't they? 8) Don't know if they can be imported.

Just don't buy an Eheim wet/dry filter. They are useless :evil:

I have never heard of them liking mince and would be reluctant as it would foul the tank if you weren't careful. You would only need 2 or 3 peas at any time so just take them to work with you. They don't take up much room after all You could also try cucumber, courgette or zuchinni.

Won't hurt the BN at all.

Definitely sounds like cyano to me and it isn't found just in marine tanks. Try siphoning out as much as possible then totally black out the tank for 3 or 4 days. Do not feed the fish during this time either. At the end of this, do another thorough siphon. If this fails you may have to use Erythromycin - a prescription only medication and used as a last resort. Better to find the cause. Could be too many or too few phosphates, too much light, or it might have come in on an infected plant.

Well you could throw a party if you like 8) Otherwise, no need to do anything. Feed them very finely crushed flake and make sure there are plenty of places for them to hide. They like to attach themselves to the sides of the tank too.

It's the IMG code. Did you put spaces between the ones in the first post?
