Crisis averted for now :D My second batch of BBS hatched! Yay for Ocean Nutrition!
@Zoom - Oh man, whyyyyy. Would it be safe to leave a bit of water and the gravel in so that I don't have to take the fish out again? I guess I...
Ugh, I'm so jealous of everyone that went! I would have flown up for this if I'd had the money! :argh: Next time I want to see one of these in CPT!
@keith1964 - thanks, but I don't think I can get to Stellenbosch. I don't drive yet and boyfriend is NOT going to want to drive out there just for...
@Zoom - Oh gosh, does this mean I have to drain the tank and put the fish in buckets AGAIN? They are still freaked out and hiding from yesterday's...
Ugh. Set up the tank and realised that it doesn't seem like the apartment floor is 100% level, as the water in the tank seems to be ever so...
@f-fish - was from my mom's house in Bergvliet to my new apartment in Rondebosch. Not too far, but still a major move. @tracyp - yeah, it's such...
@TomK - would have been some species of salamander/newt. Most commonly kept one in the pet trade is the firebelly newt I think. Before they were...
@TheGrissom - Oh yes, yes please! My brine shrimp didn't hatch and I don't have much to feed my babies with. Got a few BBS remaining from the last...
...Wish me luck? Never done this before so I'm scared - these are my babies. Everyone in the tank is rather large... Tank Occupants: 2x Senegal's...
@TomK - Oh, that's not a very nice thing to say! You just hurt the feelings of axolotls all over the world... Personally I think they're adorable,...
@Marco - no worries :) I've heard about the decapsulating thing, but it sounds like it involves bleach... I'd be WAY to scared to bring bleach...
@Marco - they're not fish. I'm a keeper of general aquatic animals, not just fish ^_^ But I'm not going to discuss them further here because TASA...
Unfortunately I have no experience with sumps, but I did find this link which may be helpful. Looks like it's describing a similar sound to yours:...
@TheGrissom - I am quite desperate, got surprise babies who will only eat live food, and the baby brine shrimp are a bit tricky. They like to die,...
Some of you perhaps saw my earlier thread about Daphnia. I was supposed to be getting some Daphnia eggs from a contact in JHB, but she sent me...
@themasterofSAURON - nice photos! When I get a chance I'll take some nice pictures of my bichirs (senegal's and saddled) and reedfish.
Hmm, hard to tell on the climbing perch, but I think the raised scales appearance might just be due to the high ISO. It looks like we are just...
Parrots are sterile because they are a hybrid of two or more different species. It would be like trying to breed mules :P
Welcome :D Hope you enjoy your stay!
