alanmin4304 Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I know you can get antibiotics but I am not so sure about antibuytanks. Eventually the other half will cure you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 If you are really concerned, go to a farm supply place and buy the long gloves vets and farmers use when dealing with the rear end of cows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 During the consultation over the present quarantine regulations the Maf wanted those gloves to be one of the requirements for quarantine but I am not sure if that was included in the Regs in the end.

craig Posted November 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Hi Guy's, The TB has done it's usual and gone on a remish,craig has left work,so hopefully problem solved.blood tests are looking good,those horrible pills we don't have to take no more.(cure worse than the problem). I am guessing it will show back up again at a later date,but fingers crossed we canned it this time round. Anyways off to oz a week today,thankgod pills are finished,can't go in the sun with them. A quick note for ya's fish to watch out for with TB:neons bigtime,white markings at the base of the tail,usually swollen,easy to see in a community tank,hard to spot in a quarinteen tank with 250-500 little buggers swimming around,cardinals the same.dwarf gourami's,pink kissers. Double check all fish for that swollen white mark it will eventually rupture. Best way of keeping it out of your tanks is a very careful eye when buying new fish. If ya have it in a tank,dump ALL fish,throw out ALL plants.leave substrate in and filter going and chlorinate tank(strong dose)leave it for a few days,empty then dry everything out totally,leave it to dry filter everything, once chlorine is dry it is not toxic anymore. Then start a fresh. Well that's about it. See ya guy's will catch up laters once settled in oz and when i get my fishie thing going overthere.FRONTOSA'S here i come. :bounce: :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 All the best for your shift Craig and Shelly. Thanks for the help that you have been to me. You know what I mean. Good to here that you are getting over the dreaded TB too Craig. I often wonder when I look at my arms and hands about the same thing. Where in Oz are you heading for. Watch out if you are going near the Goldcoast area for two guys that go by the name of Brad and Justin. They'll really get you into trouble. :roll: By the way, you'll be glad of the prices that you got here with your "oh so successful" breeding of the Fronts. Over there they are cheap as. So now you'll have to find some other fish associated with dollars. I'd suggest Zebra Plecos, organise a way to get them back to NZ and you'll be into your first mill in no time. All the best.

herefishiefishie Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 FRONTOSA'S here i come didn't you here?? They have just become noxious pest. Watch out if you are going near the Goldcoast area for two guys that go by the name of Brad and Justin. They'll really get you into trouble. I wish :roll: I am not allowed to anymore.

Alan Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Yu do have my address don't you Craig?? By the way, watch out for the locals at Bundy offering you their rum. You'll glow in the dark with it. Alan 104 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herefishiefishie Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 I was a coruba rum fan when in NZ. When I came over here I thought I would try the Bundy stuff. It is gut rot {IMO} I tried it a few times just incase I was having an off night. Lets just say I turned myself into a Jim Beam man. :lol: Frenchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
