Morcs Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Anyone know where I can obtain some slate cut to my requirements? Need a piece of about 18'' x 2'' for my angels to spawn on. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 You should be able to buy it from landscaping places. I have several lying about the yard :-? Not sure what it would cost to post 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discusguru Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 or you can get a spawning cone or a clay flower pot. They will spawn on anything, even the glass itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morcs Posted June 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Yeah but im after slate for aesthetics They are in a tall tank and the link spawning right near the top away from potential egg eaters, and neither cones or pots reach that high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 I always used pieces 100mm x 100mm with stainless steel hooks. They can be easily removed and hatched in a small tank 150mm x 150mm with an airstone. Angels like to spawn near the top of the tank and they can't eat the eggs if you take them away.

diver21 Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 should be your LFS or you can try tough tanks, they should have it if you ask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMAZONIAN Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Hi All I saved myself the $22.00 on T/M by NOT BUYING a Breeding Cone, and instead got a few secondhand roof slates off a tiler for $5.00. They cut easily with a masonary disc on a grinder. Asthetically they look good and the colour is natural. The biggest plus is my angels always (touch wood) spawn on them which makes the slates easy to handle for artificial hatching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
