  1. All looking good but I would remind you all we have the Freshwater Tanks section for posting tank pics etc.
  2. If it was easy (and cheap) a lot more of us would be doing it. You need a LOT of money and a quarantine facility to start.
  3. PM me your name and address and I will see what I can do.
  4. I keep a current index here Alan but at 20 pages it is a bit big to add to the magazine itself. Anyone who wants an updated index (from March 1991) may PM or email me for a copy. If too many people want me to do this though I wil have to start charging for them
  5. Half way through printing. Hope to have it out next Monday depepnding on time. :lol: Almost halfway through I discovered a spelling error. I hate that!! :evil: In this issue, learn about; Scarlet cleaner shrimps Corydoras Sea cucumbers DIY MDF tank stand (taken from these forums) Ponds in summer History of the fishkeeping hobby Algae facts Hygrophila Duckweed feeding fish fruit and veges Galaxy Rasbora Molly Hunt report AND LOTS MORE!!!! :bounce:

    high jump

    Higher than you think
  7. Worse driveway than yours? :lol:

    This or that

    Neither but BKs if pushed white bread or brown?
  9. Is it near the anus? Could it be a blockage? Fish are prone to tumours, hope this isn't one

    wellington pond

    It depends on the type of goldfish. The fancy ones can't move fast enough to catch the minnows.

    hi from chch

    Petworld always seem to have plenty of plants. Java moss or water sprite would be good for fry to hide in.

    This or that

    broadband sugar or artificial sweetener?
  13. 1. If it breaks it will stop working. If it sticks on it will fry the fish. If the glass breaks it is possible for the fishkeeper to be electrocuted. Water and electricity do not mix. 2. It is always safer to turn the heater off when doing waterchanges. If left running and the water level gets too low the heater will get very hot and when you add the water the heater will shatter. 3. Don't know about these particular heaters so can't answer. I thought most these days were submersible. Lying heaters on the substrate isn't good for them as they like the water to circulate. Buy the suckers to attach it where you want it.

    hi from chch

    A lot depends on who has just had a new shipment in. If you want carnivorous plants, visit Organism!

    hi there

    Sorry for the late welcome but I just returned from the molly hunt. Welcome to The Fishroom.
  18. Sorry about the delay but I also have to do the Minutes (last minute job as acting secretary), write up the article for the AW then get them printed and out before we go away. Am resizing all the pics now and hope to have the link to them in my Photobucket by tonight (or tomorrow). Great to meet everyone (except gatito - we had to leave before she made it). We had 30 people, 20 of them from the forum here. L - R with Dave sitting in the front. wok, Kevin, evilkneival69, Jane, Jim R, Chris, Sarah, billaney, me, purplecatfish, FishTV (2 of them), Luke, HandS (Shane and Helen), Somethin Fishy, antwan Poor pic of male and female molly but hard to photograph them in small round Pyrex container Anyone under 18 years of age please shut your eyes! The rest of you make sure you have shades on or the glare will blind you :lol: This wasn't as bad as the member who ducked behind his car to get changed, checked nobody was about, then proceeded to strip. Unfortunately, he didn't notice Kevin's wife Tracey, and daughter Aimee, sitting in the car behind. They have never laughed so hard in their lives but didn't have a camera so were unable to record the view. Next time I am sure billaney will look more closely
  19. Possibly both. What size tank? What is in it? What are the test readings for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate?
  20. You are cooking breakfast Wok :lol:
  21. My males quite often fight but never do any damage to each other.
  22. Welcome brishe. We are here to help. I love bristlenoses too
  23. Blackadder can you give some to penguinleo since you live in the same city? I will take the other on the molly hunt. It is a bit heavy to post
  24. Done We might have to bring a bigger car at the rate we are going. I am bringing all sorts of things for different people! :lol:
