    Hello from Balclutha

    Hi and welcome Debs. The nearest club to you is Dunedin. Am trying to get other southerners to start one again in Invercargill. I know a lot of people advocate salt but I personally don't like to add anything that isn't required to a tank. Choice is yours though as you will get as many believers as you will disbelievers. There is certainly no harm in it. Whatever works for you! Capre: Perhaps you ought to get a good sized map of NZ and start marking the various places on it. That is what I like to do with members in other countries. I also like to look up a bit about their country.
  9. Multiple Tank Syndrome - the urge to go and buy another fish tank
  10. Have you got room for another female penejane? Give him something to divide his attention. I have never had problems with my BNs fighting but I have a group of them.

  12. Not sure of the cause but use paper towel, or newsprint, laid flat on the surface to absorb it then see if the oil forms again. It may not.
  13. They do all sorts of things :-? I have had orange fish develop black stripes down both sides of their bodies as they aged - looked very striking. My disease book only mentions 2 reasons for fish turning black... The whole body turns black - neural pathways which control fish colour are pinched or diseased. The skin of the fish turns deep black in closely adjacent areas. These areas thicken and the scales stand out - the fish is affected with melanosarcoma, a malignant growth. Sacrifice the fish humanely.
  14. Treat it for what? Goldfish change colour
  15. CD has korthause, lineatus, rachovi, sterbai cory, constanciae, notho, simpsonichthys constanciae, brevis?, caprivi?, killies from conferences 01, 02, as far as I can see
  16. We have 2 tanks with undertank heat pads (home-made). I suggest the longer cable laid out on top of the styrofoam so that it covers it as evenly as possible. You can then place the tank straight on the cable as long as the gaps between adjacent parts of the cable are small the glass will handle it without any problem assuming everything is perfectly flat. That is how we made our heat pads using electric blanket wire laid out on Pinex board. We didn't make grooves for the wire, the tank just sits on top. We have polystyrene under the Pinex for added insulation. This tank (1.2 x .5 x .5) has been running over 10 years now and never missed a beat (or leaked). It is important to place the tank on the cable without moving it sideways to prevent damage to the cable. heat contact with the glass is fine so heat losses are low. Ensure everything is well sealed for safety and run it off an RCD for added safety. Sharkey we did this cos it was cheaper, worked well and meant no hardware in the tank.
  17. Probably planaria and harmless but unsightly. A result of over feeding usually.
  18. I believe I have a CD of fish pics taken by Kelly Rennell - lotsa killies. I have no idea what fish they are though. Happy to send a copy to whoever.
  19. Who has 100 posts? You should start your birthday news in a new thread debs
