  1. one way is to put a small container that the fish cant get in to but the snails can and place some fish food in there, pull out be fore the snail exit...
  2. looks good [you have to copy the img URL not the page URL]
  3. with whitespot, at least with natives we can dump in 6 or more g of salt per liter (over 24h) and and not have to too much (no excuse for no quarantine though). I have lost all my smelt in one ~75 - 80% w/c one day - some 14 fish in the end and none of the others were worried at all
  4. firefly was good, we never got it in the uk and didn't come across it untill we got back here and was given the boxset to watch
  5. dollhouse before the pulled the funding, liked boomtown and The Beast (then Patrick up and died). Cant think of any must see atm, but I do seem to watch too much crap on the TV
  6. my 160 L is on 'silverfern' underlay, and only depresses it maybe 1-2mm
  7. off the top of my head the max in NZ is .4ppm but it often tests at about .1 - .2ppm at the tap. If I see my old man today I'll ask him what it normally sits at in TA at the Fontera plant.
  8. Interesting as I don't think you can harvest them to sell them unless you have a quota under the QMS?
  9. The south african ones don't have the blue dot on their fore legs and can be very variable in colour, from yellows to browns through to the more typical greens of our native one.
  10. kill her, kill her, kill her... She is one of the invasive SA ones that are displacing our native ones
  11. The logon on the main FNZAS is for financial members of the FNZAS, the forum login ins just for the forum. When you join an affiliated club your details should get passed on to the FNZAS team for the details to get loaded on (username/club/... etc)
  12. good luck JaSa on those lines, you have some nice fish ( the last of the feeders are still alive in the native tank, have figured out where to hide).
  13. Hi and welcome. I have lurked on a .au forum for a good two years...
  14. by OS I meant OSS / FOSS - [Free* and] Open Source Software *Free as in Free speach
  15. I can't believe that it'snot OS... I would be more likely to buy a unit if it was OS, as it is not OS I would rather buy, build and program a Raspberry Pie. This is a serous comment BTW
  16. I cant believe that a place that size doesn't have automatic water monitoring...
  17. For those looking up this old thread the above article has been removed but is available at http://web.archive.org/web/200512151650 ... ?newsid=52 The below is probably copyright www.nzpcn.org.nz but as they have removed a valuable reference I feel that another copy is justified for research.
  18. It would have to be lightly stocked to work and inanga might not be the best choice as they like a bit of flow and like to school. Common bullies from a lake population might work.
  19. or sell brutus and buy a 1000 mosquito rasbora and plant it :digH:
  20. Try as you might you will never ignore him Keep asking questions and you should do fine.
  21. Hi and welcome to the fishroom I don't think Kuhli loaches are easy to breed, but I would love to hear others thoughts on this. I have another Pangio sp. that one looks gravid so I have hopes that they will breed (P. anguillaris).
