AquaNut Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Hi all NZKA members. My father has taken on the task of cleaning the fish pond in his "Older person complex". He has asked if any of you lot would be prepared to donate a gold fish or two (really needs around 20 big ones as the pond is 5sqm). Any species would be fine. He is also looking for gold fish pond plants. So if any of you could help in the Auckland area that would be great. Of course I am prepared to pay but just wouldnt tell him :-) If there are any of you in the Bay of Plenty area, I will be down your way on the 17th-19th of November. Oh by the way, Ive suddenly got heaps of SJO eggs so I'll keep you posted on how they go and get some to members if they are interested. Cheers Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caserole Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Hi AquaNut, sorry I can't help with the gold fish. how are your blue gularis eggs going. when my original pair started producing large numbers of eggs I got really excited but after 24 to 48 hours most had died. you didn't mention do you have the eggs in water or lined up on damp peat? if there still fertile, you have a 5 to 8 week wait for them to hatch, start getting prepared now. you will know when there ready to hatch as you can see the fry eye very clearly looking back at you. at 2 weeks old they start to take off in a REALY BIG way, there demand on food and there fore water changes is non stop. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
