On-topic: Nice looking tank so...

A species tank full of Exodons is one of my dreams for the future :) Good luck with sourcing some.

The tank is a 250L (125x45x45). Current stock is 6x Metynnis lippincottianus (the smaller spotted silver dollars), and I have no intention of stocking it beyond the dollars and angels. Does that...

Thanks, I'm not intending to breed them (unfortunately) so just a pair of either sex will be fine (unless you've observed a trend of aggression in same-sex pairs?). If you recommend a male-female...

Hi, I'm interested in perhaps purchasing a pair of these great-looking fish. I'm situated in Stellenbosch but may only be able to purchase in a week or so. Should I PM you?

Nice list! Might want to update the list with the white cloud mountain minnow's scientific name, Tanichthys albonubes.

Looks like a really nice idea, hope it works out nicely for you. I'm quite a fan of your plant choices and those "overhanging roots" look great. Good luck!

I remember a long time ago when I was catching a large oscar for myself since the assistant was too scared, being asked by a young boy as I wrestled the oscar into the bag with water flying...

Same here, hoping for no repetitions of the sad stories of the Celestial danio and Bala sharks and quite a few others...

Thanks for your posts guys. Yeah the gambusia problem has been around for ages and they're thriving in the pond, so even though the koi eat a few here and there they're definitely not enough to do...

Did you find some buyers?

Hey guys

We have a koi pond at our house in Cape Town and we've had it for about 15 years. Over this time we've had koi whose numbers have slowly dwindled down to about four, having lost some from...

I have noted a pleasing trend (though slight and fairly sluggish to develop) of LFS's starting to explain the bare basics of fish care and dedicating some tanks to proper quarantine.

Being from Madagascar, I'd imagine they are threatened :(? Good thing they're easy to spawn.

I'm such a fan of Arowanas and Shovelnoses. Unfortunate that I had to sell mine, but good luck in finding them suitable homes.

At the moment I'm only playing Battlefield 3, Starcraft 2 and Skyrim. Between those three and my other commitments, all my time is used up!

No problems, thanks :)

Any chance of some pics of the Rathburns? Haven't seen them around before and I tend to collect Characins :)

azurekoi: Thanks, I'm enjoying every minute with them, their behaviour is very pleasing in addition to these signs of great patterning and colour later on - very happy with them.

Thanks man :) As you can maybe see from the pics, there's quite a size difference between our two largest (those who have also developed the new colour) and the rest, so hopefully that will balance...

They've only just developed the new colour that can be seen here, and it developed quite suddenly the other morning. It was a relief and a pleasure to see that they're...

Thanks for that f-fish. I agree on that - pollution is major concern around there. Though that chemical contamination story I heard is another angle... :(

Glad to see you have Bucktooth tetras (Exodon paradoxus I presume?) since I want to keep a species tank of them one day in the future when I give in to MTS :D

Hi everyone. I've been following stories regarding the most recent floods in Thailand, which are covering 1/3 of the country and have caused millions of coastal fish deaths owing to chemical leakage...

Such beauties... if I were closer and had the tank space, I'd delve into the savings for these guys...
