  1. They're the Canterbury Aquarium and Pond Society actually Marcel said everyone welcome. Grant and I were at the last one as our club, Marlborough, had our meeting at Marcel's. Check out the plywood tank he is building too - he's doing a great job on it.
  2. ... and nothing to do with posting pictures! :lol:

    Question

    Aren't they egg layers? Fatter bodies generally means females. To my knowledge inanga spawn in reeds at the edges of waterways, but don't quote me on that. 8)
  4. I am afraid plec poo is a universal problem for plec owners. They are well known as poo machines. Think of it as good fertiliser for the plants
  5. I have been keeping fish for over 20 years Mickey but have never kept clowns
  6. That's good to hear Mickey. Wok, I only know what many have told me about clowns needing a well matured tank, I do not speak from personal experience. Sounds like Mickey's tank is fully cycled anyway and should be stable.
  7. Plecs grow really big and every time they move they tend to swipe a plant with their tail and uproot it. The rest of your selection there will be fine and not eat the plants.
  8. Your tank is newly set up isn't it Mickey? Clown loaches are very sensitive fish and need to go in to a well established aquarium that has been set up at least 6 months. They get white spot very easily but are sensitive to the medication for it so hard to treat. I think, if the tank is new, that you should ask the shop to take the clowns back for now or they will most likely die.
  9. Guppies need to be in 18C (64.4F) or higher. We can't help you with costs of equipment in the USA but I know a lot of people over there recommend an online place called Big Al's.

    Hey

    That's all right, we forgive you. I'm sure you can't help it :lol:
  11. I think some have forgotten what it is like to be an enthusiastic 13 year old Mickey. Don't worry about it.

    Hey

    Hi Brite and welcome. Whereabouts are you? Have a read through the livebearer section on problems others have been having with guppies lately and see if your trouble is the same.
  13. Alanmin's brineshrimp hatcher diagram
  14. I was figuring it would give him the incentive to work it out himself, rather than admit he had to ask me to do it
  15. Or email the pics and article to me [email protected] and I will do it for you.
  16. Looks to me like you tried to copy and paste but your finger slipped off the Ctrl key when you hit v.
  17. Once you have an online site set up to host your pics, it is easy and no great mission at all
  18. Those algae eaters are good at sucking the protective slime off fish
  19. Since I assume you didn't find a suicide note I am afraid you will never know why he jumped Fill the gaps with filter wool (dacron)
  20. Go to a glazier rather than a pet shop
  21. Mickey another site full of great information and help is The Tropical Tank and it is UK based. www.thetropicaltank.co.uk
  22. It is not a fast grower but can look really good when it gets to a big size and starts throwing off plantlets.
  23. Hi and welcome Rory. Good to hear you are working on fixing the problem How much room do you have for more tanks? :lol:
  24. Hi and welcome Antwan. I feel sorry for the spider :lol:
