  1. What sized tank and conditions are they in? These fish are normally OK to leave with the parents, especially if you have plenty of fine leaved plants for the fry to hide in, as they don't eat many. I only ever fed mine finely crushed flake and left them to grow up in the tank with the parents.
  2. I was not complaining about poor grammar or spelling. I am aware that for many typing is difficult, English is not their first language, and a number have reading and writing difficulties. I was just wanting the correct terminology used when referring to young fishes THEY ARE NOT BUBBAS THEY ARE FRY (the plural is not FRIES either )

    Hi guys

    Hi and welcome Karly. You have joined a great site with plenty of help. Breeding wcmms is easy. Contact Loopy. She too is a mum with young ones and is really into her fish, having bred quite a number of species. She recently started a new club in ChCh too and should be a lot of help.
  4. What do you mean "excuse the female"? What did she do?
  5. You will not establish bacteria levels just adding Cycle. Save money and stop using it. What fish are you intending to have in there? Have you already got another tank running? If so, seed the filter in there.
  6. Not when referring to fish
  7. Using such a small amount of yellow was a touch of genius evil
  8. young fish are called FRY, not bubbas! :lol: This comment is not directed at any one person in particular
  9. Some plants grow faster than others. Is it in cold or tropical water?
  10. Medicated foods are not available here
  11. What's it got to do with him? :-? :roll:
  12. I don't use it and rarely do water changes either. Those who have seen my tank know it doesn't smell and the water is clear. It is also heavily planted and understocked.
  13. I never add anything to my tank if I can help it - no carbon here.
  14. Hope you manage to raise quite a few. Good pic 8)
  15. Should be OK but I wonder if it is so dried out it will never sink.
  16. Angels start turning into angel shapes at about 6 weeks I think.
  17. As a teetotaller I have never been inside a liquor store so didn't know they had little bottles. Are they expensive? I don't want to waste money giving you lot a laugh 8)
  18. My bigger males tend to do that but they never actually harm any other fish and eventually the other fish just move far enough out of his way then ignore him.
  19. I do not have access to a burned out car the right size but could find plenty of empty alcohol bottles around the streets unfortunately. They would be too big next to the trolley though and I don't have any of those little sample sized ones. The trolley itself came from a certain red emporium. It usually sits on my bench with bananas in it. 8)
  20. He would be happier if you moved him. A lot less stress.
  21. I would separate them if you can. He will always harrass, and possibly kill, the younger male. Unless you have a large, densely planted tank where he has plenty of places he can escape. Make sure he gets his fair share of food too.
