put some fine netting to cover up the filter....unless you want the fry to be sucked into the filter that is...

get them nice and fat...and feed them to other fish

and it was 20 for 25kg bag

[Aquariums]

bought a 25kg bag of silica sand from hollywood fish farm

silica has been treated so doesnt affect ph levels

and really didnt need cleaning/rinsing before use either

[Aquariums]

switched from gravel to sand substrate on Sunday.... SOOOOO much better... takes a bit more time when cleaning/vacuuming but on the other hand...easier to clean

[Can all subaru be changed from Auto to Man?]

u will need...

manual drive shaft

manual rear diff

there will be ecu wiring (to be specific ... wiring the rear reverse lights to go on when in reverse)

you may need a manual ecu as well (altho i had a manual ecu running in an auto prior to manual conversion...but believe theres a diff when runnin in manual?? not sure)

[Aquariums]

im assuming its an empty tank?

[Aquariums]

Pleco, Blue Gourami, Dwarf Gourami, Larger Tetras, Bala Shark are all good tank mates for angels...

basically as long as it dont fit in its mouth..you should be ok.....

just a matter of whom is more dominant in the tank.....

angelfish are supposed to be kept only with other angelfish afaik.

thats whats happening to your goldfish.

because angels are such slow moving fish...most of the time.... as long as u hv fast moving eg neons that constantly on the move...its ok..ish...

friend had guppies and angels..... guppies go bye bye all the time

you guys have any idea on how a siamese fighter ( or pair male and female) would get on in a tank with 4 goldfish and 2 angelfish? the gold fish are about 4 times the size of them and the angel fish are the same size if not a bit bigger

you will have lotsa probs with them fighting.....angels will wanna fight for dominance against the siemese

True that my old ladys got an angel that attacks & eats her other fish even the red tail shark (actual name i dont know) gets bits of it bitten from it & it is some kind of fighting fish too.

they also fight for territory if the tank is not big enough

the name for the shark is.....red tail black shark.....

if u plan on removing everything (eg fish) to do the change then its straight forward

no special things needed...jsut make sure filter is off when u do it

[Aquariums]

believe there is no different from having sand to havin gravel

as long as the filter is switched off when initial setting up (if it has propellers)

and that you should move the sand whenever waterchanging / vacuuming....

wot fish have u got?

[Aquariums]

currently researching into the gravel to sand conversion....

believe theres nothign different.... cant use under gravel filter...thats all i know at this stage

u looking to do a sand setup?

[Aquariums]

girl from work has turtles....she also breeds minnows / danios to feed them....brutal...i love it

[Aquariums]
