  1. There are no such thing as cold water guppies! All it means is that guppies can cope with cooler temperatures (down to 15 - 18C). This does not make them cold water fish, despite often being sold as such :evil:
  2. Well done for taking the fish and attempting to cure it. Sounds like you are doing the right thing and good luck. Keep us posted.
  3. Yes you can post pics if you upload them into an online site first (like Photobucket). Keep them small though please (640 x 480 or less and under 128kb) I have heard of others with this white slime in new set-ups and it seems to disappear as the tank matures. Wipe it off in the meantime.
  4. Use pure ammonia or prawns. Have a look here... http://www.tropicaltankforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=8326
  5. So have letters announcing this gone out to all clubs?
  6. Just doing an article and need to check (as I know nothing about marines) whether the following can be found in aquariums in NZ: Sun corals (Tubastrea aurea) Heliofungia sp Fungia sp Goniopora sp Herpolita limax (slipper coral) Cynaria lacrymalis (elephant's eye coral) Thanks
  7. I think most suggest over 3cm.
  8. Fish release growth hormones into the water and having them in too small a tank, even though the fish itself is small, may stunt their growth. Hiding places should give them security.

    Is this weird?

    Slight improvement on a bowl though as better surface area. :roll:

    Depends on what size it is and what you put in it. Very limited I would think.
  11. Sounds like bullying to me. Probably someone after lights-out (BGK?). Would explain the clown loach whitespot too if water parameters are good. Lots of plants and provide more caves. All those fish will need to be moved anyway as they grow too big for a 3ft.
  12. Smuggle them in. They won't notice once the fish are in the tank will they?
  13. If longer than 10 - 14 days I put doses in a daily pill container then get house sitter to empty dose into tank on alternate days. Also hide all other fish food.
  14. How could you forget plantgeek? Curt's site is the best for plants I reckon :lol:
  15. The get together is Sunday evening 27th May wilson, at Loopy's place.

    How do you make it last 2 minutes jn? 8)
  17. Ah but how do you know there isn't a secreat club already
  18. My fish all hang around the uplift hoping to nab bits dislodged.

    A lot depends on the area you live in, the depth of the pond and whether it is sheltered.
  20. Sounds like we should have a buy, sell, swap at the same time
  21. There is no way to tell without dissection. I would not add any medications to a tank without confirming a diagnosis.

    I don't have to log out to copy and paste links.
  23. Hi Empress and welcome to NZ :lol:
  24. We had a hermit crab in a cold marine rockpool setup. He was happy as a clam although I do not know if this means he was happier than other hermit crabs
