Too late ^^
-
I just walked in on my two fighters getting it on in the back left corner of my 4ftr :bounce: :bounce:
He had the choice of 4 females and he picked the girl he spawned with last time. Strangely enough i witnessed a second female come along, acting like the other one did before spawning, only to be chased away by the couple. Losing half the eggs in the process -.-
But yeah. second fighter spawn. Not sure what to do. Will it be safe to try and put the wriggles into a net breeder once i get them?
-
Will do
-
I don't think you want much more growth =p
You should have taken my mega female. Shes a dopey as fish.

(I'm not sure I'm gonna post this)
[edit]awww... I'm afraid I did it...
:lol: :lol: :lol:
-
Any luck spawning these giants?
-
I have some mesh too. Thin stuff. Cable tie it to the inlet?
-
Lesson learned. Think i might buy a strainer aye...
-
Second hand filter doesn't have one -.-
I forgot to put a sponge over it. Which i now have, at the cost of a sponge filter...

No, it was one of the mustard gas halfmoon plakats. The same father as your pink plakats but a different female.
Wicked. Half brothers ^^

Today I was doing some casual maintenance in the tank with a friend over. After noticing my two newest female fighters missing, I uprooted a lot of plants to find no corpses. I then thought to myself "@q@#!@&*(#*&(&*^!@^#&@!&^%$&^@!%$^%!@&^* I PUT A CANISTER FILTER ON THE TANK!!!" I unplugged the filter, lifter it on top of the tank. I could make out the shapes of the two fighters through the green body of my EHIEM 2213. Man did i freak haha. I took off the top to find a black neon that had found its way up the side of the basket and into the filter wool. (I later had to kull it
) Then i found a Ram stuck between the cannister and the bucket After rescuing the two females, the ram, and disposing of the half eaten platy and the platy with about 15cm in length intestines hanging out of it, I had learnt my lesson...
Hopefully my female fighters will be ok. Want to use them to spawn with as soon as my first batch of fry move into a bigger tank

...Are a pain in the bum.
I'm thinking about getting rid of mine and maybe getting a couple of little corydora? I liked the algae eaters at first, but they doubled in size and are getting slightly aggressive towards my fighter... They dont even really do much algae eating anymore... Any one else had similar problems???
As i am speaking my larger one is thrashing around and swimming around crazily...
I had once. It disappeared. Never to be seen again. No idea why.
They grow to about 15cm. Too big for a 34L

You are broken.
You are.... I don't know what insult I can throw after being called broken for eating my greens
-
Was it a pink PK by any chance Ice?

I was like "$7! man i'd pay twice as much!"
Gorgeous fish

Not that smart, they eat brussel sprouts!
I like silverbeet and brussel sprouts :oops: :oops: :oops:

Also, I love the photo of the vicious looking rottwiler on the nz harold's article. It's no longer about journalism. It's all about getting hits and ad revenue.
Exactly.

I was ment to win him! ahahah. I forgot to bid and he went so cheap Adrienne is the best. I have 5 of her fighters at the moment
Plus the babies of two of her fighters -
Or at his face when taking ghastly white photos or web camming ladies
:lol:
Ahahaha

There are a number of additives to shipping water including sedatives, antiseptics, water stabilisers and antibiotics. Often fish are shipped in isotonic solutions of salt (0.9% NaCl or 9 grams per litre).
Basically puts them in a coma right? To save energy etc etc to allow them to live for longer? Something like that? haha
-
Did your parents buy you that? :lol:
Energy saver bulb aye? Shouldn't that be aimed at a fish tank?
-
I only knew what was going on because we used to talk about current events for 10 mins at the start of each day at primary. Now days i only find out what i hear/see online because i never watch tv
-
Chances are (no offense) if you're the age of my parents, then Internet and colour tv didn't exist which almost takes away the point of being inside.
Agreed. And now days exercise can be done indoors too haha =p Like at the gym =D Which reminds me, i should be going there very soon
-
Did i mention them to you? haha. How my mum had a fit and I couldn't go and get them? I didn't know you were going out that way ^^Gosh Josh we could have picked them up last weekend for you if you'd planned in advance lol, after the HFF and Pupuke mission!
Anybody able to pick up and hold a small tank for me?

I found a small tank 30-30-30 by the looks of it, pick up north shore. I'd love to get it as a spawning tank but cant get out to north shore for another few weeks.
Is it possiible for somebody to pick up for me and to hold till I can get to you or we happen to cross paths? I'm in howick/botany.
