  1. I put it in a tiny iq5 tank and when I got home from school I put it with the bully.At first it seemed OK and then started following the bully round the tank, until the bully thought it was a rock to rest on, as soon as the bully landed the koura nipped the bully's tail so its now in the iq5 until it can play nice.
  2. Well I was looking for bullies with dad and a mate and just as we were leaving we saw heaps of koura. So I took one home now where to put it :dunno: . So can I put it in a 54 litre tank with a 5cm bully?
  3. And would it eat snails as its only tiny (5 cm).
  4. Thanks,I caught it in a pine forest that has a very tiny stream. How long would a 54 litre tank last him/her?
  5. Hi could someone please ID this bully and let me know what I should feed him? http://i328.photobucket.com/albums/l350/CurtissKittyhawke/20140914_185809_zpse0bf4a4c.jpg http://i328.photobucket.com/albums/l350/CurtissKittyhawke/20140914_185641_zpsd0d37955.jpg http://i328.photobucket.com/albums/l350/CurtissKittyhawke/20140914_185558_zpse5da7cd2.jpg Many thanks in advance.
  6. Wow lots of fish in our area http://ei.niwa.co.nz/search/fbis
  7. If the puffers are dwarf puffers you could have 4-5 in a 100 litre tank.They are easy to keep but need frozen or live food.They can't be kept with anything but otto catfish. The fluval 100 watt heater would be good for your tank. I like the aqua one moray 700 but it's really up to you.
  8. Or does anyone know of a good stream to go looking for fish in the manawutu area?
  9. We have a stream down the road so I will try that.I actually was looking in the stream today but no luck.
  10. Hi everyone,I am quite interested in native fish. I particularly like the redfin & crans bullies can you find these in Hawke's bay? Or is there anyone that could share some with me.
  11. Native fish identification guides http://www.niwa.co.nz/freshwater-and-es ... s-and-keys
  12. Did you catch your bullys in a river/stream or a lake?
  13. Is my feeding programme OK? 5 wardley shrimp pellets 2 JBL Novo Fect pellets 4 omega one veggie rounds 2 pinches of Omega One Super Color Kelp Pellets This is repeated every second day.
  14. It is with sadness that I have had to put down my little mate of some three years :dead%fish. It had some crappy looking contents in it gut and what appears to be eggs even though it was a male. It keep floating to the top of the tank and had heaps of trouble swimming down to the rest of the school. This little fish came from a very overstocked tank ie 75 fish...thats nother story Any ideas?
  15. You will see that he has a bloated tummy...could he have worms?
  16. Well it has happened again, but to my favorite Silver Dollar. He is swimming nose down, with a bloated tummy, it appears that he is trying to swim down, but he keeps floating up...seem odd, what could it be...We have changed the water at 50%....any advice would be welcome as I have had this fish for three years.
