waterlogged

I have mystery blue apple snails and have never had a broblem with my betas and them.

any one got a peacock i can borrow

where could I find peacock moss?

yea i have both in my comunity. would lichen type from a stream work ? or would the temp kill it? or it the fish

So I've been looking at moss aqua scaped tanks on youtube and it got my thinking... are there many mosses that one could easily obtain in this country for a tropical aquarium? And would any one be able to list them/places to get a hold of different types

so safe to say one would be wise to hire a small army? {or bribe a bunch of mates with booze :lol: }

i wish i ahd enough tanks for that amount of wood lol

that is alot

sometimes you can get a bunch of neons that just die and could be they get eaten by the scavangers. there can be a number of reasons ie inbreeding, from infected stock and so on. they are so popular that their rate of breedeing causes lots of problems

sweet as thank you were is this place again?

ah yes but is it all just single peices with most of the good branchy places broken off in the surf?

hey just to all the drift wood fans on this blog, does anyone know any good places to find nice drift wood in or near palmerston north? I'm looking for peices that look like roots for my 60L to be planted tank

the charcoal part is just like the carbon. my mother used to put it i with her bulbs to keep the water clean. And i have used beach drift wood before. i boiled it a few times then left in a barrel of water till it was waterlogged (lol) and have had it in my tank since feb with no problems. how ever i have also had other drift wood start to errode in other tanks. the wood needs to be hard not soft and if the wood can be rubbed off it will do this in the tank. hope that helps

i tried to do this in my 300l with the heater and filter behind but i ran into problems. I used a nontoxic cement but in turned out oo heavy. What have you used? Also what did you use as a base? i just used pollystirene and of course ran in to boyancy problemes. I ended um just axing the whole idea which was a bit of money for me down the drain, but i'm keen to try it again on my 60l.

glad to know im not too crazy lol

I know world of water in hamiltom has had them in the past

well last i counted i had 11 young so if you want a few we can sort something out.

if you now a reliable courier. I have only recieved fish and the poor girl was left out side my door even when i was home.

oh woops someone will have a few messages then lol

yes but my PM isn't working ? won't send to anyone

Mine too we could probably sort something out. i only think most are still too young. I've had a few bad expereinces buying young ones from shops, they don't handle the stress well.

ok so i keep finding more and more little guys in my comunity tank and took the 4 parents out over a month ago lol. think i have about ten from atleast 3 different spawings. any one got hints on how to catch them whit out moving all my gear out of the tank. will wait till their bigger first

sweet thanks heaps they all seem to be getting along great but now looks like i might have to try get him out again to sell him to a member lol

ok so my planted tank is aways off. Are bristle noses very territorial? will the two males survive ok in the same tank with females? one is bigger than the other by a bit

I know you at Massey in Palmy i think alot of the BSc's to do with thuis type of thing, eg zoology, Ecology... you need bio and chem, math and english and only a few papers need physics
