60 feet long!!!!
:sick:
-
the banded gourami grow quite a bit bigger than the dwarfs, up to about 10cm
-
watched a young bell frog swallow a frog that was slightly larger than it, was kinda funny though cuz it couldn't move for 2 days cuz its belly was too big
-
just a random Idea, but what about a floating peice of coarse grade sponge in the over flow to prevent the water splashing as hard, if you use coarse enough material It shouldn't clog up too easily
-
depends on the size of the worm
eeewwwww :sick:

had one of those a few years back, had a mate importing them, awesome fun, had about 12 of us, used to go to the new subdivelopments and race on the new roads until cops kicked us out
-
awesome, the importer was telling me they were high on their wish list for next import, maybe they have got a new shipment in
or else someone is successfully breeding enough to sell excess
-
time for dinner???
-
MTS strikes again
-
are those the ones that have the outlet mouth below the water surface to remove draining noise???
-
you should see if you could get them to pay you to take care of it for them
-
not 100% but im leaning towards female, harder to tell in whites as they tend to not show as much colour as regulars
-
parts sorted...
also for everyones info
have talked to the guys and they have set up pondmaster pumps before outside of the water.
only issues are that it needs to be kept below intake level to prevent drying out in power cut (creates its own syphon to draw water into it), and make sure all your seals are tight. over heating is not a problem as the water passing inside will cool it.
running it dry will burn it out in a few minutes. if it does burn out there is normally no danger to the surroundings, the resin encasing the motor expands a bit and it stops working.

use a fine mesh so air can circulate, place it around the base of the hood to allow air in and out without loosing the warmest air.
use a good quality waterproof paint to prevent any damage to wood in the long term.
-
soooo.... how nice were you to them????
-
-
Im assuming the light fitting will be mounted in the hood???, make sure you use fireproof poly for the insulation, or maybe look at an extrior ballast

Was talking to a guy who put 10 neons into a 100L long tank to start his cycling, and noticed that they all seperated and started making small territories for themselves similar to tiny lil cichlids,
have noticed in my tanks when there is about 40 - 60 they will form a really tight school, but when the school dropt to around 20 - 25 they spread out.
also noticed that to get a realy tight forming school, add an angel fish
hell of a lot of behavioural actions for a tiny lil fish
-
then again, until about 10 years ago, Dario dario WAS Badis badis, now there something like 10 seperate specie of Badis and Dario
hrmmm... now to convince SWMBO that breeding 2cm long fish is a noble goal
-
build a breeding trap out of small mirrors with gaps for water flow, then they feel like they are in a school
dunno if it works, just a thought
-
my one lost an eye due to a fight, other than that and a few torn fins, nothing much happened, but the other fish got a bit stressed by the fighting. IMO if you can ( and bring yourself to) I would remove one male just to remove any possibility of trouble
-
one of my regulars has successfully crossed a black orchid croown with a regular dark blue crown female, waiting on a bit of size before I check them out, she also bought a Black Orchid CT pair (the male was a lot stronger body with longer points on fins) and last I Heard he was building a big nest

lol yeah, had 3 packages arriving over 3 days once, stayed at home throughout, one I missed cuz I was on the loo, one as I went to hang out washing and last one I caught as he walked up driveway as I was half naked running out from the shower.
hate those missed package notes
