Derek can you get away with just thick sponge as a divider then it can be removed when you want

if you have not rehomed this fish yet let me know and I can share this on our Facebook page as well - President FNZAS

Ahh see this is why I need people like you Caryl, I'm not sure about businesses on you tube but know that videos can be uploaded in the you section of you tube then by hitting the plus sign button. Most people I know link back to their 'shop' account from the descriptions / profile

We arent really the appropriate audience to help with this. This is a site for fish and fishkeeping and aquatic related items

Great links and advice team!

Cool I'm a breeder based in wellington I have australes and striatium at current ( striatium are a mates but I can sell on their behalf) I may need to get australe numbers up but if your on facebook just on killifish nz Facebook page

That's cool to hear. Unfortunatley this thread is really old now and I'm not sure if you will receive any other replies. Have an awesome day however!

Hello.. I really cannot help with your question but it sounds like a cool set up.

Not alot of killifish keepers around these days. Can get australe some fundulopanchax.. a very few of the nothobranchi.. clowns.. gold panchax... and striatium Where are you located

try New Pupuke Aquarium in Auckland

@lakshan this is a very old post - you should post in the Wanting to buy section if you are wanting to look for a specific fish. the fish your looking for is not one that is often rehomed as they are fairly pricey in NZ I recommend talk to your local pet shop

It's with great sadness I have to post today. Grant Simpson beloved husband to Caryl Simpson has passed away this morning. Grant and Caryl have been a huge part of the FNZAS for a very long time, and part of the Marlborough Aquarium Club. Our biggest condolences to Caryl and her whanau at this time. If you would like to leave a memory of Grant please share them below.

Kia ora, fish keeping whanau! Did you know that MPI are completing a review on the Biosecurity Act and that submissions close on the 29 November 2024?? The FNZAS is potentially making a submission, and as fish keepers / aquatickeepers and hobbyists we think your voice should be heard. I have attached a link which takes you to their page, theres a lot of information to go through and unpack - you can make a submission yourself, but please note that submissions are Public information. If you wish to supply feedback to FNZAS to add into their submission you can, please email [email protected] or [email protected] Please note that submissions need to be relevant to what they are proposing so please please please read the information. The consultation package contains proposals that span across a range of areas in the biosecurity system. These proposals have been grouped into six topics: • System-wide issues; • Funding and compensation; • Border and imports; • Readiness and response; • Long-term management; • Legislative interfaces. Although we may not be individually affected by this - it will have impact on NZ fish and aquatic keeping and imports. Thanks FNZAS President - Maxine Here's a Blurb that MPI have on their website Background information on this consultation and the Act New Zealand’s biosecurity system helps protect our economy, environment, and people from unwanted pests and diseases. Our biosecurity system is underpinned by the Biosecurity Act 1993. The Act provides the main legal framework for MPI and other organisations to manage and respond to harmful pests and diseases. The Act provides MPI and other organisations the tools to manage biosecurity risk before it arrives on New Zealand’s shore, at the border, and within New Zealand. While the Act has served us well for the last 30 years, increasing pressures on the biosecurity system from trade, travel, online purchasing and climate change mean some changes are required to keep the system resilient and fit for the future. We have an opportunity now to strengthen the biosecurity system and make it efficient, cost-effective, and adaptable. Since 2019, we have talked with key stakeholders (including mana whenua, regional councils, Government Industry Agreement partners, and other government agencies) about potential updates to the Act and key policy issues.

Hi Pamela Welcome, as mentioned, the forum is a bit slow, but a few of us are still here - there is a native fishkeepers facebook page which Stella is active on.

I've never come across the colour change but if the lump was by a fin sometimes this happens due to water quality, I know you have said water is all okay but can you post the actual parameters as well please. Ammonia nitrite and nitrate.

Fishly is a legitimate site, so im not sure whats going on there, you will need to try and contact them do they have a phone number?

sometimes also the stem plants we buy are grown emersed and they sometimes melt back and come back with submerged growth - also if your running c02 or adding a nutrient to help with that it could be causing it to melt

glad to see you found a new betta - hope this one does betta ... hehehe

hello thanks for posting on this forum - can you please update this to ensure it follows the forum rules for "FS / swapping" fish - this then allows us to share your post onto the Facebook page without any retribution from the algorithm. Thanks heaps

well to be honest as someone who is not a trout fisher - I have no idea but now you have me making a face while I also ponder this! - intriguing indeed!

I dont know how many of our members are auckland based at current we don't have a club up there... probably I would check any streams close to you but I'd be looking for water quality also... sometimes a bucket with some grass clippings putside can start off a good culture of micro organisms

ask your local pet store as both are often enough on the list - the sterbai are always on there.
