Thanks will try that next time they're all dead now

Banana worm once a day

Floating a tub in my main tank and put an airline in. Fry get to about 4 days old then start dying. Change water every day with tank water. Any idea what's causing it?

Dont put MTS in your tank they will take over it in no time at all. I have finally got rid of the ones I had using Assassin snails.

Looking for one or maybe two price depending.
Not bothered if they are commons or albino.

Thanks

What brand are the Red Rotifers Rob please?

My gold lazers spawned on the NT LABS in tank brine shrimp hatcher and there must have been 90+ eggs on it. Useful when it came to moving them

Thanks for the heads up, will try Pier and Rare Aquatics, I'm on a budget, so I hope the younger fish will be the right price :)

I've not been to Rare aquatics - but people i trust say it is very good indeed.

I have been to Pier and prices of the more regular fish are pretty hard to beat ...

Wheres all this Keep XXX and carry on come from?

tonight is the first night that I havent had eggs

Thanks Ian.

Over the last 8 or so nights I have taken eggs from the bottom of the tub floating in the tank. I have had a fair few hatch now using alder cones and seem to be getting a lot less fungus on the eggs. I have had no choice for now but to leave all the adults together till I manage to sort ...

would the diahragm be a universal product or would I need to but hailea ones?

I have a Hailea ACO-9610 pump with four outlets on it. One of the outlets has far less power coming out of it. All four have a double tap on them but this one only seems to have enough to work one device.

Any Ideas?

Yeah he said.

More importantly MR JAMIE H is getting into Cories.
Who would have thought it.

Martin I will text Jamie for you for him to PM you

Gav

Thanks Larry

Last time they bred last year there was a high hatch rate. Someone on another site says that there could be a bacteria in the water.

Think Im going to up the water changes to try and improve the water quality

I have a group of Corydora Napoensis that are spawning regular but there seems to be a very low fertility rate on them. Over the last 4 nights I must have had 250 + eggs. I had a spawn last week as well but only seem to have had half a dozen hatch so far and can see lots of white eggs.

I know I ...

A great auction and a good crack with the CAS and SVAS lads.

The 'Corydoras ambiacus' I got are identical to C009 apart from the small dark spot on the body at the base of the dorsal fin spine.

Yes we did have a good laugh. Jamie thought there were too many cats in the auction then we pointed ...

Thanks Mats

Mine are approaching this size. Do you think size is what determines if a cory can breed or do you think its more age related(if so what age)?

Mats, how big are the parents?

Always a good night to be had at these auctions. Will try and get up with some of the SVAS boys Steve

Gav

Will do Ian, Whats your email Address?

We did report it at the time but will do so again.

It didnt stop me enjoying the convention. Hope to come again next year

Gavin

Really enjoyed it myself except for a few things which were not the fault of CSG

Our rooms heater didnt work and the tv was green.(we told reception as we checked out)

And the price of beer OMG £6 for a bottle of Magners when there wasnt discount.

On the whole though very well done to all ...

Corgette (zucchini) algae wafers, flake food. I dont blanch it first but it does need weighing down with something (not the flake of course).

I got a couple of what were sold as sterbai at the weekend from different places. One is definately a sterbai the other im not sure. It has the same marking as a sterbai but has more brown than black markings on it. Is it still a sterbai or would it be something else. Sorry I dont have any photos

I ended up buying 12 gold lasers and a sterbai,

Never saw the green lasers though
Must have been after 4 as we had to leave early

thanks for taking the time to post the list. Wish it was closer to me I would have made a visit. Have to get our lass to agree to a holiday next year down that way

When I was at Aqualife up your end of the country, there were some C. weitzmani in the shop - I think they were £5.99 - not fully-grown, but not tiny either.

Yes there was Mats I got some the end of last month. From what I understand they are locally bred as well. The ones I got are ...

leave it as it is. The male cares for the young and tends not to eat while doing this. If you added another female the ladies may take it in turns to breed with him and he may not get chance to eat between raising the young.

I tend to put the fry into a frysaver to grow on a bit. It also helps because you can make sure they eat. Just change the water regular or have one that allows the water through it
