can you narrow it down by telling us what's in the tank?

Just get the latest edition. They get better each year/release.

I've never had a sub$400 order stopped and I order a fair amount of stuff from the UK and the states including clothing items. If you go over $400 it's another story though and they won't release (deliver) the goods until the duty/gst is paid. If the total order including shipping is less than $400 then you'll be sweet.

as an absolute fluke a friend got his ear pierced at the top of the lobe on his left ear and his allergies and hay fever went away. Turns out the piercer hit the exact spot an acupuncturist would put a needle in to treat these things. Once he took it out a few years later he started getting reactions again. Might be a long shot but it could work for you too.

Twisted val handles being trimmed quite well in my experience. Just cut it all off at the length you want and off you go. Worst case the leaves go brown and then the plant regrows them but I never had that happen with mine.

Seems it was too little too late - he was dead this morning. He had taken a hiding from his tank mates in the night and that had done him in. Thanks for you help all - it's very much appreciated.

It really is! It looks better every time I see it.

Sorry, I was in reactive mode. How dare you question my methods! :sage: Um, yeah, so just good clean water, a bit of salt and some melafix as of yesterday and I've added furan 2 today. No obvious signs of improvement so far but it has only been 12 hours. Will update in the next couple of days with the outcome. Thanks all for your help, it's very much appreciated.

I started by rescuing him from a rotten tank and treating the good tank with salt and melafix while trying to figure out what exactly is wrong with him. Now that I know I will treat the condition and hope for the best. Are you accusing me of not doing enough?
-
Thanks, I didn't make it but I'll get there first thing in the morning. His tufts have fallen off today and he's no longer clamping his fins and can swim quite well. Now it's just a race to get him eating before he starves to death.
-
Awesome, thanks for that. I'll go to the shops now and hope they're still open when I get there. Thanks to everybody else as well, fingers crossed he makes it through.

I've had double red cockatoos and a couple of others. I found that as long as you give them some caves (small clay pots works real well) they're really happy. As others have said you'll want to get a pair but once they've got their cave and their eating well they'll start breeding without much effort on your behalf. If you want more than a pair just add more females and spread the caves about so they can keep away from each other.

woah! you just blew my mind. -
I rescued the last remaining A. Heckelii from my ex's house yesterday and they're both in various levels of sickness. I can't figure out what these white tufts are. Any ideas? I've got them in a tank with freshly changed water. I've thrown in a handfull of epsom salts and some melafix for good luck. If I can get an ID I'll treat accordingly.
-
If it's what I'm thinking from what you've described I'd say yes. Looks like the leaves have got black edges in some cases.

probably bba - increase the co2 should clear it out. It suggests your fert levels aren't quite right yet (too much fert, not enough growth)
