I find the word pakeha offensive. I prefer being called a kiwi thank you. It should be if you are born in NZ you are a New Zealander, not a Maori, not an Asian, not an Islander, not a European - A KIWI. ONE NATION. ONE PEOPLE.

Anyone else feel like they should be receiving the goods that the European settlers paid the natives for their land etc. back? I wouldn't mind a 18th century musket to hang on my wall or a nice flock of sheep etc. The fact of the matter as I see it is we are all supposed to be one nation, not a nation of split nationalities that argue and fight over the rights to who owns what. Some Maori are the most selfish, racist people on this earth if you ask me, quite happy to accept and take but not happy to share. Go back to living in huts and hunting with spears if they want to live like this. It's called being civilized and evolving into a respectable part of modern society. Not alienating themselves from the majority.

You could make a really cool background using thin bits of schist rock?

:gigl: :facepalm:

Cool story bro. Have to admit I completely agree with everything that letter says and stands for.

You may want to look into injecting some form of co2 if your going to be adding ferts to the water column as you may start getting algae issues with the high abundance of ferts that the plants can't all use.

Yes, just a different type of one lol

You can plant anubias with no problems as long as you keep the rhizome above the substrate, I find it can actually grow better this way if you have substrate ferts.

Looking excellent as usual Adrienne, and yeah I'm amazed about the glosso too.

Hello, the reason your male has yellow/orange fins is somewhere along the line he has orange flash genes, probably from a female.

The word whore is in the bible so it can't be that derogatory surely? I think some people are just prudes and old fashioned.

I don't think it's a good idea.

Can't wait to see it without the algae dude, I'm wondering if the lights may be to powerful and too close to the water level?

:gpo2: I agree, I personally think the tank is too small for angels anyway dude. Just for future reference you might like to add your location to your profile, this helps in a lot of ways as someone near you may have some fish that would suit your tank or have the same tank and able to let you view it to get some stocking ideas.

Sounds like a bacterial bloom which is quite common on a new tank especially during cycling. Just keep doing regular water changes and it will clear up in no time.

To build co2 levels up near optimum ppm so once the lights turn on plants start utilizing it.

I didn't breed these ones danval did, and I haven't raised fry from these yet past the freeswimming stage as they are all in the same tank growing and everytime the fry reach that stage they are quickly munched up when the lights go off.

I run my co2 an hour before the lights come on and turns off an hour before they go off dude.

They're mine lol, I have shipped fish quite a bit recently and haven't lost any, these were shipped down from Hamilton when they were a lot younger without any losses.

Trying to get some motivation to get ready for my mates wedding lol.

An airpump does not add oxygen to the tank, the oxygen comes from the surface agitation which the bubbles cause. This can usually be done without an airpump by directing the outlet of your filter to break the water and cause surface movement.
