more OT:
about 'cold water guppies', some of my feeder guppies escaped the mouths of the kokopu and are doing ok in the 1/2 wine barrel on the back porch, max temp is 16 deg
I normally only use it as a ich cure but did dose my 430L tank when I tore it down and re-set it up the other month (at 3g/L) as well as a dechlorination product - it was a near a 100% w/c.
$3 for selling a fish? good luck with that
The non www. domain, http://wheedle.co.nz/, is even more broken than http://www.wheedle.co.nz/ get them both fixed...
Um... rabbit, hare, possum, goat, deer, reindeer, horse, donkey (raw and cooked), raw beef, crocodile, kangaroo, peacock, springbok, bamboo snails and I'm sure that there have been others
Think I had cat in kuching, Sarawak.
Would try most anything
Some mosses will do ok, if they come from a very wet environment. I think that they will do better in a cold water aquarium though.
I have had some success with an umbrella moss that was completely submerged when found, and another moss (common garden type) that was growing in a very wet area. This second one is 1/2 submerged 1/2 emerged, the top 1/2 is doing much better than the 1/2 in the water.
They can be, but not too bad. Like any drift feeder they will each have their favourite spot. I've seen 4 kokopu in the same 3-4m x 1.5-2m pool, each had their own spot with the bigger fish at the top and the smallest at the tail.
Sounds like there were good numbers of them which is good to hear.
I must say that my LFS is quite good at matching the prices of HFF on most things, and have stocked food after I have inquired about availability.
I still think that only $25 more for a bucket is not too bad a difference in price when it includes NZ tax, also note that many US on-line stores add tax at the checkout as they have differing tax rates for in state and out of state sales
