pink_fish Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 Hi all! Nice to make your acquaintance! My partner & I have three tanks on the go at the moment - a 22l with 5 killies & a wee BN, a 25-ish litre with a recovering-from-ich male yellow betta and a 155l with assorted female bettas, rosy tetras, a larger BN, corys and a banjo catfish. My knowledge is medium-limited, and I'm keen to make new fishy-friends, so that's why I've signed up! Oh - and we have a new 215l tank that's about to be set-up, so will be surfing the marketplace in here, I expect! Look forward to chatting with you all, pink_fish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pink_fish Posted November 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 Hey folks - thanks for the welcomes! Aaron-Betta - hi! We're keeping golden australe killies (2 males, 2 females) and a wee notho (can't remember his full title, but he's one of the plainer-coloured ones - a great character! He's blue with an orangey-red tail). We had a lonely male australe in our big community tank for awhile, but he started to try and mate with our female bettas! They didn't mind much, but we felt sorry for the killi so got him some mates (lol, in both senses of the word). We kinda hoped for some babies, but haven't really done anything about encouraging them to breed (other than putting in some java moss). But the little guy is much happier now. Prior to this bunch, we had a few assorted males - a gardarneri (scuse spelling!) blue, a striatum and a couple I can't remember the names of. What do you keep? Wouldn't mind some advice on how to get our australes breeding, if you know? Mr Pleco - hey there - we meet you on Tues evg - we were the newbies at the meeting - finally got an email address that the forums would accept! Caper - hi! Yup - he's nearly all better now, so will try and take a pick over the next couple of days. He was a _very_ lucky find at a petshop (was spot-less the day we bought him, but spotty the next day - grrr!) & was sold as a CT (not that I can see, though!) but he is a bit different with a kinda wedge-shaped tail, although might still have a bit of growing to do. What sort of bettas are you into? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
