We’ve recently updated Aquarium World! We’re working through a few bugs, with exciting new features on the way. Thanks for your patience while we fine-tune the site.

New Tank
Nice pics Shae. I must say I have never seen earthworm flakes before!
-
this is my bed room/fish room
That's sneaky - painting the walls dark blue so you don't need backdrops on the tanks. :lol: Looking good but I can only see 4 tanks :-? I also feel obliged to object to the posters of partially clad, underfed women :lol:
-
lucky guppys
Not a "bad" at all Shae. You did not know that was a temporary home and it would have been excellent advice if mystic had not known it already and had plans to move them. Others reading this thread may not know you can't keep fry in a breeding trap for too long so will have learned something.

New Tank
Sorry Shae, Grant would build a heatpad for you if he had the time but he is run ragged at the moment with no end in sight

Has Anyone Ever???
http://www.applesnail.net/ Is a most informative site (complete with recipes) :lol:

Rosy Barbs
I have managed to put 8 of the 10 rosy barbs into the pond on Dec 27th. The other 2 are still zipping around the tank unconvinced they are heading for spawning heaven and evading the nets with ease. Will let you all know if I find lots of fry in the pond at a later date. The ones in the pond are zooming about through the plants and have lots of live food in with them.
-
Angels spawned
No idea I've never tried spawning them before :lol: Managed to catch 8 of the 10 today and release them in the pond ( a 6ft paddling pool).
-
Angels spawned
They made a nice meal for the tank inhabitants. I am sure they will spawn again. I have to remove the rosy barbs sometime in the next few days and put them out in their pond so perhaps the angels will have more success with the next lot.
-
Plants of New-Zealand
Do you have any specific ones in mind and what quantities?
-
Love is in the air (Discus)
Some good pics there dogmatix. Good luck with the next lot.

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you all. Ho Ho ho :roll:

New Tank is inside for chrissy
Can't comment on the tank as I know nothing about marines but I like the stand!
-
Yummy live food
I put out a bit of cats meat (meat for the cat not meat from the cat) in a container covered with gladwrap and sat in the sun. Maggotsville!
-
Yummy live food
Cool pics Ira! Nothing eeew or yucky about them at all. They feel nice in your hands (so do maggots actually - tickly)

If you hang on a bit the site is about to get an upgrade and will be able to host your pics here.
-
what lights do you use?
My 4ft community has 4 daylight fluorescents and the African 4ft has a double fluorescent (probably daylight or bright white). Any tanks I have that are 2ft or less I use those short fluorescent bulbs which just lie on the glass lid with a piece of plastic guttering over it for a reflector.

have a safe and happy holiday one and all
Have a good holiday Alana and safe driving to you.
-
Ebay and aquatic plants
I agree with Alan. No chance. If MAF found it you would be in major doo doo with fines of up to $10,000 I believe.
-
Planted Tanks
I need articles desperately melanotaenia as I haven't started the Feb AW yet . If anyone else has some articles to offer it would be much appreciated! Gareth is coming up from ChCh on Thursday so I will need to know about the plant ASAP (assuming he is willing to go and get it)
-
Planted Tanks
Echinodorus tenellus - mini chain sword. Organism in ChCh had glossostigma recently. My son is coming home from ChCh for Christmas and I could see if he has time to pop in and get a pot of it for you if you like. It was $8 something I think. I will be in Wgtn on Jan 15, 16 so could bring it with me.

can someone tell me where to find electronic ballasts?
Have you tried Dick Smith or Jaycar? Otherwise, an electrical wholesaler should have them.
-
Do Jewel Cichlids & Silver Dollars go together okay?
I can see them all. Perhaps your glasses need cleaning Alan :lol:
