most shops seem to try and sell cabinets as furniture

as it is more upmarket to keep the missus happy

you would need to phone around with the tank size you want it for 

or look for a second hand unit Gumtree, Marketplace etc

Try a bottle with a few food pellets in it and just let it sit for a while

@Aussie  anything you know off in Melb 

Numbers were down a bit but still a fair number

Too bad you missed the major auction aswell plenty of Apistos

Hi All Newbridge Rd is now open all lanes

Just a heads up for anyone travelling via Milperra Rd to the meeting

Please note as of today the Georges River bridge on Milperra/Newbridge RD is

closed due to flooding last night please check if it is opened when leaving for the 

meeting otherwise you will need to detour via Hume Highway and take Governor Macquarie

Drive at Warwick Farm where the racecourse is 

Gibbeceps and common plecos grow large

L001 same family as the Gibbicep be grows smaller

depending on how much you want to spend will dictate other options

Ancistrus are the starting point with common bristlenose also in caliico or albino in short or longfin,

Peppermints, Orange spots and L144 blue eyes from there they get dearer

welcome @ixs 

you can usually find glass shrimp around the edges of slow-moving creeks in any overhanging vegetation 

can you please fill out location in your profile so we can answer your questions easier

nice one Abe

@fatglenn has a good range of quality fish that you don,t see often.

he is in Tas but will ship

Chris at Allfish2U tries to keep a wide selection and is expanding it

Gold Occies have been regularly put through the monthly auctions lately

@yanke  Apisto Borelli, Agassizi fire golds and think McMasteri

Hi and welcome @hobodeeks

heaters are thermostatically controlled so lt only closes the circuit when temps are below what it is set at

most Africans rift lake species can handle a temp drop to 18-20 deg C

depends on if you are feeling lucky as to whether to turn the heater off outside spring to autumn

@dan200 Andrew is doing fine and is feeling liberated from the worries the shop put on him

You can catch him on FB if you're looking to catch up

I have confirmed there will be pair of each of these 3 species

Apistogramma sp Alto Tapiche 

Apistogramma Abacaxis

Nanochromis Transvestitus

Hi all to the sellers

Please make sure you have read the rules relating to sizing and bagging so we have no delays 

at scrutineering

They will be a limited supply of water with Ray at the rebagging station

Bring along your auction kit of a styro box or insulated bag also have your own spare bags,

Prime and elastic bands all may save you during the day

The club will have bundles of bags for sale but we won't have elastic bands

Buyers

Styro boxes will be offered when/if available  

Bring your money and have a good day 👍

NOTE NO SMOKING ON SCHOOL GROUNDS

@TJK1818 Hi and welcome to ACE forums

being as Malawis and Victorians in most cases is a less expensive fish than most Tangs

people use these mainly as the catfish doesn't care

All the breeders I know use young fish that have just started breeding as they seem to realise what the catfish are up to

Victorian Haplochromides will work as all the males want to do is spawn and they will start at an early age

Malawi Mbuna, Haplochromides and Aulonacara are also used 

Seeing as the catfish predate on the eggs and fry of the host any hybrid can be used as a cost effective incubator

Hope this helps and good luck

if you haven't read this it may be of assistance also

picked these up today for the raffle

unfortunately MALES ONLY but great display fish

13 x Apistogramma Abacaxis

12 x Apistogramma Piaroa

@tonedeaf Agree with Yanke Blackwater Aquarium 

Matts will give you the best advice for your Appisto

DRP seems to be on point

@yanke I believe Adam sent emails out to inform members the meeting was cancelled 

You would need to contact one of the committee to confirm how the notices were sent out

@fishdancesome good points Winston

Also you can use Cherry Shrimp in the tumblers as they will eat the fungus 

but leave the eggs alone

@Blue yonder

Abe you should be able to strip between 2-3 weeks 

I don't know why you are having fungus probs never had that prob before and used to strip at 2 wks

All I can suggest is methylene blue to help curb the fungus problem

Hi @Michelle

An unusual question here, if they are there most common reason would be food

so once there and know food is available you won't get rid of them unless you bait them

best thing would be to Google  "pet safe rodent bait"

There are a number of pet safe baits now

@Skippy should be a good day out 👍

@Blue yonder damn you Abe 😄

might have to have a look at the L397

@Blue yonderwant to hint at what you are bringing Abe   😉🐟

@pride Auction starts at 2pm and goes to approx 9pm or so

depending on number of lots
