waterlogged

Looks awesome. Thanks heaps for all the info

so is thet just if one statrts off with all the gear eg co2 and then cuts off? or just normally ? the alge growing i mean. Sorry been thinking of doing this for a while so my head is full of all matter of questions

is that under substrate stuff like a fert? If i use CO2 to establish a healthy lust tank then slowly ween off it will the plants be ok? i know they won't grow the same after but was thinking once i get it the way i want it if i did that it would slow the prossess down and i wouldn't need to proon so often. al so I have herd of instances were the amount of CO2 has some how increased accidently killing the fish. I want to establish a planted aquarium but ultimatily add fish and such to inhance the scene

also on a second thought has anyone tried to DYI. be interested in results as money doesn't grown on any of my trees =(

Hey guys i've been reading through alot of the posts about undergravel heating and how it helps the plants roots to gain nutrients and all that. Something i have had a problem finding is if i were to use under gravil heating proper substrates and ferts or what ever, Will this be work any were as well as is i had CO2 instead? and compared to inistial and ongoing costs which would be more cost effective/productive. I've had well established planted tanks before but have gradually grown them with out any extra help and am now thinking of trying my hand at aquascaping.

one when they get bigger i won't have room for 6 might have to take one of the girls out too eventually, and don't want them interbreeding. even though they're probably too young just yet. i will put him in my planted tank when i finally get it going and might swap one of my females for another from different place

sweet thanks

yea not a fam of mollies just knew they could. i have only seen pufferes up in auckland and hamilton.

Does any one know were i could find some really cool drift wood from? also i am trying to find some low lying plants for a planted aquarium to form a carpet for the tank.

Hi were did you get the Glossostigmas?

any idea were i could get fish from? i know bumble bee gobies and mollies can handle certain levels

yea the girls brother isn't to thrilled with being taken out or the tank but the other male has berly noticed the difference. so if anyone wants a young male only just showing bristles let me know

Hi i was just wondering how i can get a hold of someone who I can talk to about joining the club. I'm in palmerston north but i think you are the closest.

sweet thanks heaps. i'll go introduce him to the girls now 8) :bounce:

I have 4 females aprox 7-9 months old and i also have a male that is prob round 3-4 years old. I was wondering if i put hi i with the girls will they be ok? The girls are currently in a 300L comunity tank with plety of wood and hiding places. Any help will be great thanks

well i haven't touched my 4 pandas and just left them in my 300l community tank and now have atleast 6 about the size or a bumble bee gobie. I've now taken the older 4 out and put them in a separate tank to hopefully breed. i'm leaving the condition the same as my community tank so shouldn't have any problems. the only thing i don't know is which or the 4 are male and female. does anyone know a full proof and if possible easy way to sex pandas?

Hey i'm thinking of setting up a brackist aquarium and was wondering what i need to consider with this. eg would a 60L aprox tank work fine, and were in the lower north island can one find brakish fish/plants

every time ive had young survive they've just been left in a community tank with many other fish. it also seems sometimes that the parents herded they young, i have ony had a few young so dont know if it is normal but looked really cool

you guys are swaying me toward just going for it lol even though i n know i should wait before my next fishy venture

probably something similar kribs, peacocks or angels. but like ai said this is only with my limited knowledge. will angles go with othe cichlids? i don't think i have actually seen any together. sorry for the complete subject change :roll:

i havent thought that far ahead just yet more just brainstorming. at the moment my knowlage of cichlids is limited but i am going to brush up on more before i give me tank any large over hauls

thanks heaps but i'm not able to at the moment now hopefuuly in a few months or might just end up being on the to do list for a while

thanks heaps guys i will hopefully br able to give it a go in the next few months or so :bounce:

Hi i'm thinking or getting one or two for my 3ft tank. im also looking at cichlids. would these go ok with cichlids?

Hey guys i've decided to give breeding my pandas a go. on several occasions i have found a few fry when cleaning my tank but only two servived and the father then died. after giving the mother away and getting two more from animates i have found a few more fry. i think i have one female and 3 males but not sure. Any info would be great thanks. i'm thining of moving them to a small tank so i can see their interaction and try find out which is my breeding pair. :bounce:
