Use an immersion heater They have a 1000 watts pumping thru them DON"T put the handle under the water, they kick like a mule and keep an eye on it, they brew up pretty quickly. Alan

Now all you have to do is to make the pics smaller for the site Alan

Check the Breeding Link of the forum You can find all the ones (breeders) that belong to the FNZAS that have scored with these little sweeties Alan

Apparently you should be able to count the bubbles for maximum efficiency. Alan

And man, that 7' cray must be a real something to look at. :roll: Alan

Do birds die sitting on power lines?? Alan

And the best way to do it is put it into a soc and over the u/g filter under the gravel, or in the cannister filter Take out when the desired hardness/pH is attained Alan

Yes Rob. Ask Bruce Those "Dutch Auctions"* are a sure fire way to loose your spending money. Alan * Thinks that is what the auctions are called.

If you are refering to the eggs, then they are NOT an Aphyosemion. They are Aplocheilus Alan

If you mean the eggs that BG has, they are golden wonders\Aplocheilus lineatus. Alan

There are a few available from a few of the NZKA members. In the shops, you can find them too, but the price there, is usually in the vicinity of $26.00. Looks like I better get my pairs to work again. We did have a member that was disappoited that more ppl didn't take advantage of his offer of $5.00 a fish. He told me that he wasn't going to give them away fair enough too. Alas, I hear he has given up breeding fish because of the greed of the shops he serviced, they kept on trying to knock his prices down too. $5.00 sounds pretty good for full size blue rams to me Ample room to make a profit and be cheaper than the shops getting them from the wholesalers. Alan

Can't go passed the Golden Austale kylefish02 Easy to breed, and a very beautiful fish, peaceful too. Alan

New Zealand Killifish Association Alan

Palmie has a club. Why not join up and get all the added extra benefits Doesn't cost much for what you get. Cheaper in the NZKA, a postal group Prolly do better in your local club tho Cheers Alan

I'd do that for $25.00 Jude Those quotes are expensive considering that it would come out of their scrap Alan

You are talking salt aren't you Bri? If not, use a short piece of PVC piping about 300mm lon. They use it as a refuge. When the fish goes in Place a net over both ends, lift out. No stress for owner or fish. Alan

IMHO YEP Alan

If you mean the powder for the filters. Go to pool filter suppliers for it. It may not quite be as refined as 'VORTEX' powder. BUT, it does the job, and is SO MUCH cheaper. I use it and find it satisfactory. Alan

Food, Food, and more food. Live too. Temperature during the summer will have to be watched. Where are you situated?? Alan
