  1. I've got a 60l aquarium that I'm keen to get some  plants for, such as ambulia,  pennywort, watersprite/wisteria/indian fern, as well as some crypts (really like these). The lighting I've got is low to medium. Please comment/PM me if you've got any plants/cuttings you wouldn't mind selling me :) (don't necessarily have to be the ones I listed) 

  2.  I just recently got some Mollies from Tokannu, and I was wondering what quarantine procedures I should take and how I get them to eat food. I was also wondering how big they would grow ect, ect. 

    Thanks

  3. I want to get into breeding pygmy cories. The setup will be very simple, a sponge filter, smooth river sand, java moss, and various other low light plants. Will feeed them sinking pellets, frozen blood worms and brine shrimp, freeze dried food and my frozen vegetable food. I was wanting to do it in a 40 litre aquarium, woldthis be big enough. I'll have a colony of about ten or so and breed them and just sell to lfs or trademe.

     

    Any tips on breeding them will also help.

  4. Is it safe to put them in the pond at this time of year? What plants do you recommend for underwater, will probably have oxy weed and a big lily pad but want other better options. Finally how many white clouds do you recommend for a large tub?

  5. So I got a 50L and want to start a new planted tank. I want crypts in it, anubias, java fern and cyperus helferi in it. Is 11watt sufficent or how do I get a stronger light, the light is one of those inbuilt ones. I want to use sand substrate from a river, is this possible. Next what do you recommend daltons soil, the one from palmers, or jbl. If I dont use soil do I use tabs or liquid ferts.

     

    Thanks 

  6. Is this a good feeding routine for a community tank which has, neons, cardinals, mollies and platies.

    Please give advice. Thanks.

     

  7. Yeah we thought if we did do this we wouldn't put the frogs in, because he read somewhere that they can eat the lizards/lizards. We have realised that the water can not be self sustaining, but the land can if be if we had a good breeding population of crickets, slaters and other small insects Thanks for the offer on the plants but if we do this it won't be till we leave college so like 5 years!

  8. So me and this friend had a massive idea that when we leave school we will make a huge glass Vivariuam, with a huger water section that house shrimps, Koura, Bullies, and other small native fish. Then it would have another huge land section with native plants, ferns, Golden bell frogs, skinks and maybe a gecko? We also wanted to see if this could be a self sustaining thing with only needing the work of water changes, and filter cleaning. IS this possible? Our tank would have to be huge probably over 6x2 metres.
