You'd be happy with him. Shae

Yip, so far your doing the right thing. Get some food like shrimp pellets and alot of hiding places for the corys, keep the tank in low light if possible, it will encourage them to come out and eat, the more they eat the better, you wanna keep them nice and fat and healthy until there better. Shae

Looks like a moscow, very nice, wierd you get it? Shae

To be honest i dont know how they'll be, if its an issue i can lend you a bubbler, air line pump and all, how far from stokes are you? Shae

I had mine in 12c and lower if it was a cold morning. Shae

put a bubbler under neath were the snail eggs are, so the bubble spray, keeps the eggs moist. Shae

TFC= tropicalfishchat Shae

BN's can handle Coldwater, aslong as there climatised properly. Shae

I would advice against it, i tryed doing ths before with my flags, rams and convicts, never worked, they were simply food. Shae

Glad you joined us this is a neat site, heapsa really friendly ppl, no were near as busy at TFC though. Shae

Are you by any chance the same 'limegirl' from TFC? Shae

I think there cute. Shae

Fixed my bike, needa organise some downhill Shae

LOL, yip its all good dude, let me know when your gonna shoot round to pick up some plant and have a gees. Shae

im pretty sure it was : 100-1 star 300-2 stars 500- 3 stars 800- 4 stars 1000- 5 stars (might have been 1200) Atleast thats how i think it worked for me Shae

They really do mean nothing. Shae

haha, swordtails Shae

Anyway, enough of that, if I can find out the weight of the two foods, I will do the necessary calculations and post separately for open discussion. Until then we are giving advice on axolotl eggs etc. Cheers Shae

I do realise this, it is for that reason I used quotation marks, look up buddy, you said it… Missed the boat a bit there mate :roll: , look up, I said BS, not BBS…….oh and dude check your spelling ‘acquired’ and ‘separating’. Well you lucky then, I know a few people personally who have had there cultures die out, including myself, however I never really used them, not nutritious enough. Your thought will be taking under advisement....... :roll: Cheers Shae

English have never been my forte : D I know what an analogy is, it is for this reason I said "size difference then" How is 4% high protein? Considering they are so small! No, you never said they were a "high quality food" but you did say "almost the perfect fish food", I'm sure even you can make the connection....... How is this so? I am very clear in my statements that it IS a better food; I have presented evidence to support it as well. Which I still stand by firmly. Granted Daphnia can be cultured and acquired free, but so can BS. Daphnia cultures also die, easily and without warning. Both foods can be infused to become even more nutritional to there eaters. Ill get in touch with Babelfish and let them know.... Cheers Shae

Talking about size difference then, lake vs ocean etc. If your still under the impression that daphny is a "high qaulity food" and you can be bothered doing the relevent equations to figure out the difference in size and nutrition between the two food then go ahead, ill be interested to see your results. However i will tell you know, before you even bother, that daphny will still come in falling far behind. Shae

low protein, low fat, high water content, they cant be fed in the same quantity as BBS, and even if they could, BBS far out strips it in Nutritional value. Shae

This is the reason i say that daphnia is insubstantial. Shae

Well i hope you dont feed humans to your fish. please explain..... Daphnia = 95% water, 4% protein, 0.54% fat, 0.67% carbohydrates, and 0.15% Ash Freshly hatched Brine Shrimp = upwards of 70% protien, 4-6% fat. Shae

They are 95% water. Shae
