Air bubbles not great for plants as it removes the co2. What is high tec led?
-
That is a great looking planted tank

Nothing is cheap these days. Cost of living has gone up

The reds are amazing

Is that a purple queen anthia? Seems strange to add it with a Niger trigger as it will likely kill it. Also the purple queen is impossible to keep. Will be lucky to last a week.

They are nice, no one seems to be bidding.

Yea looking to add more drift wood, looking to have jave fern, Anubias, and few others, not looking to add to many plants, Want to keep the front clear of plants so that is will be easy to clean and left over food.

Hypancistrus zebra L46

Far easier than captive breed Discus, I only feed pellets and sometimes bloodworm and mysis shrimp.
-
imported them few months ago, They are doing very well, easy to keep, only change water every two weeks. Hope to get gravel soon and then add water, will let it settle for two weeks and then add fish.

Auckland Fishkeepers Association AGM CANCELLED
reef replied to Adrienne's topic in FNZAS & Afflilated Clubs
Sure there are many reasons, so much choice these days. Also many of the more mature people are getting out of the hobby, and the uptake of new people getting into it is less. Also i agree the internet is having a effect and no doubt their will be less stores in the future due to online trading. -
Auckland Fishkeepers Association AGM CANCELLED
reef replied to Adrienne's topic in FNZAS & Afflilated Clubs
Sorry to hear about the lack of support, it is the sign of the times with the hobby , it appears to be in major recession going by the lack of forum post over the last 12 months and the slow down of fish Business in general. Hopefully their some keen hobbyist to help out. -
Try Hollywood fish farm as they sell liquid prazi

That will likely reduce to well under 3000LPH. I have always used the 25mm pressure plumbing and it has always worked well.
-
Loc line fittings are far to small for the tank size, they will reduce your flow.
-
I would all overflow boxes. too risky.
-
Good point, things must be getting desperate when old timers come back from the dead. Would love to step up to the plate, however only can climb so many steps.
-
Thats good, However really surprised in the proposal that their was nothing about adding new species of fish and working with the Industry to combat MAFs approach to basically kill off the Hobby. This would be no 1 priority. No fish no Hobby.

Maybe there needs to be a big clean out of officers as it appears things have been stale for many years and FNZAS had been at a standstill. It needs new blood with officers that have drive and passion for the hobby so that it can be taken to the next level so that the hobby can thrive and grow. I appreciate that officers are doing the best they can and have done a good job, but like a Business you need new blood so that you get new ideas and new direction.

looks like a Red Finger Sponge
