  1. Peat refers to "dirt" whereas peat moss is another name for sphagnum moss.
  2. You would be surprised at how much an 8 year old can understand if you read an adult book (like Stella's) together. Her book ought to have all the information you need to produce something at a young child's level.
  3. Personally I am not a fan of adding chemicals and prefer lots of daily water changes if water conditions are not good. If you mean something like Prime though I guess it can't hurt. If it is HITH you need to treat it with the correct medication too. Good luck.
  4. Floofie has its own Easter egg :slfg:
  5. Could it be hole in the head? http://www.oscarfishlover.com/helpful-articles/hith-disease
  6. This has now been locked at the original poster's request.
  7. Since it was a TM name we (or I at least) assumed you meant to search the TM site. :facepalm:
  8. I have found some secondary fungal infections, when gently rubbed, fall off and you find a nicely healed scar, or new scale, underneath with no treatment necessary.
  9. Does he have anything else for sale at the moment? You could ask on one of his other auctions if so.
  10. When I wrote off our 4WD in a stream up the Molesworth, a local DOC worker drove past and said he would fine me for improper use of a waterway :lol: (He was known to me and he was only joking) :slfg: I bet there are a number of people who would claim Stella was often a small pain in the neck We have so many more people now interested in native fish and it is all totally thanks to Stella with her knowledge and enthusiasm
  11. I have not kept oscars but I wonder about a small wound under a scale and it has grown a secondary fungal infection.

    The What's Up? thread.

    We have thought of going with spray bottles of similar (or even just water and saying it was anti-bacterial stuff) and giving them a squirt but they are the type who would then sue us for assault :roll: Grant has just won an Acer Ultrabook S3 with i5 processor and solid state drive (whatever that means) I gather they retail around $2,000 :happy2:
  13. No pressure Jen :gigl:

    The What's Up? thread.

    We had fresh cod for tea thanks to my sister in law and a successful fishing trip. We grilled it with lemon pepper. It was Quiz Night and WE WON!!!! First time this term and we finally beat The Microbes. It was a tie and we had a have a tie breaker question. Go Foxy Morons!! :happy1:
  15. Bent which direction? Could be genetic, injury, malnutrition, bacterial infection, internal swelling, infection or egg bound.
  16. You have to stick to the topic of the thread though
  17. I don't like peanuts but I love Whittaker's peanut slabs. If you want a really good treat - Makana's Macadamia Bark is devine! https://secure.makana.co.nz/confections.aspx/NaturallyNutty/MacadamiaBark Hmm, I think a trip to the chocolate factory is in order now :gigl:
  18. I keep entering the competitions on their website. :love:
  19. Every thing you need to know is on their website http://www.nzblood.co.nz/ It is quick and easy and everyone is very nice to you and thank you a lot for donating. I am a blood donor but have had to stand down for 6 months after my surgery. You can sit or lie down, whichever is most comfortable for you. They give you nice drinks and biscuits afterwards. :love:
  20. That right hand end reminds me of triffids
  21. It isn't a torpedo barb as their red stripe is down the middle. People like sunken ships and planes but you want wood - how about an ark?
