  1. Whether a snake is venomous or not has nothing to do with why they are banned. It is to protect our native birds and animals.
  2. I suggest you post a question on there asking if it is the one I mentioned and, if so, did they realise it is a pest plant and illegal to sell?
  3. Here's me with the filter in the pond. Gives you a better idea of size and depth... 8) and the fish were interested. Counted over 30 of them
  4. It is the yellow flag iris that is an invasive weed. Iris pseudacorus. Are you referring to the 6 being sold from Westport?
  5. Why don't you get a "fish expert" from here to come in as a customer and point out their concerns?

    A Pond

    Watch out for overhanging deciduous trees, or underground tree root systems (not to mention drains etc) Try to build in a place with at least partial sun. Full sun will have it go green very quickly. Full shade is good and you can plant using ferns. Check allowable depths with council. Over certain depth needs to be fenced. Deeper is better as it stays cooler longer.
  7. What I meant was I could send Tim the programme to crack the password if required
  8. Look down on her from above. If she is sticking out a lot more on one side than the other it's eggs.
  9. Ah thanks for that Tim. I sent instructions but said she might have problems if he had passworded the computer. Good to know you will help her directly. 8) You need a programme to crack the password?
  10. Perhaps he has exhausted himself already
  11. Hard to tell as those fish are supposed to be really fat :lol:
  12. She was going to post here as she asked me how to do so. Since she hasn't I guess she couldn't figure it out Keep meaning to ring her to see but have been so busy...

    New tank

    Yes you can use some media from the established filters. If the small tank the fish are currently in is not going to be used right away, move the filter over to the new tank too and run it along with the new filter. Saves mucking about with the filter media then.
  14. Welcome back mistymu 8)

    New tank

    Haven't they already got a tank running or have I misread it?

    New tank

    Put the new filter on the existing tank that has the fish in it. It will cycle there.
  17. My pills were 400mg each. It has been suggested 400mg/100L. Someone else said 250mg/100L. I seem to remember using 4 pills in my 280L tank which was probably overkill but I didn’t know the dosage at that point and it certainly worked without harming the filters or fish. I dissolved them in a cup of water first as they have a white coating which takes ages to dissolve. I siphoned out the dead cyano quickly (it starts to die within 24hrs) then repeated the dose 3 days later. Someone else asked and I suggested 2 pills for his 280L tank with a repeat, as above, 3 days later and he reported back that it worked well.

    4 foot tank

    I too run a Jebo 819 on my 250L
  19. I have the dosage at home so will check it tonight when I get home from work.
  20. I have never bred goldfish in a tank so can't help you. Anyone else?
  21. Has she got something to lay them on? They usually spawn on the underside of lily leaves or similar. People make spawning nests out of plastic pot scrubs and stuff too.
  22. Definitely a male with the hots
