Got home from TAFE just now and all the eggs are gone :shock: Well I expected it..it was their first time.

So if you put the eggs in a separate tank, do you need to do anything special...

Yep..I better go see if Tandy has them.

Our winter bill is always around the $700 mark..so I guess I am looking at more than a grand. The last quarter with my tanks running actually worked out...

Gee..I am noticing all my typos, sorry about that!

Ouch!

(how do ya make the crying smiley?

I have two in an AR980 as the temp fluctuates too much down here in Tassie with the cold. These do not have to work as hard with one supporting the...

Does anyone have an approximate as to how much it costs to run auarium heaters. I now have 3 100W and 2 200 watt going. Hubby is having kittens at what the power bill will be.. that...

Planaria can and do attach to fish......Had trouble with them with my Elephant nose's..maybe as they are scaless <shrug>

Oh..Top stuff sammi :D

Just what I was looking for..I will get some and have it on hand!

Thanks :D

Can't is correct in this case.

I do use salt as baths for other fish though from time to time.

Can't use salt on Elephant Noses

The product "ICH" contains both chemicals though I have read that Malachite Green should work on it's own.

They look Fantastic! Wow glad I got to see the real thing :)

I am hoping to have a tank just for Altums too one day...Watching and learning Merrilyn :)

Do you keep them in a species only tank...

Hi Sammi

Thanks for helping me with the brainstorming!

Hi Sami

They seem pretty limited to their host and do not wriggle.

I have photos..Will post some up over the weekend.

I do love the look of the Discus.

I am hoping next year, after my hubby has become used to the AR510 and the AR980 Aqua ones I have in the lounge room..to buy a really big tank in the area of 700...

Thanks again :)

Yeah the numbers are not great but annoying. These things are white, appear thin and rod like and can be but a spec to a mm or slightly more long. My tanks have only been set up...

What is in sterazin ?

If this is not good..can anyone suggest a better solution please. I would dearly love to get rid of the flukes without fish losses.

What about Dimlin? And is Dimlin...
