last set of eggs belong to the snail that are in the pic

location: Bethania Price: $40 contact: prefer PM eel is over 30 cm looking to rehome the eel as i don't have a place for it anymore as he can't have a decent size tank to itself. short finned eel pretty friendly (was living with a paradise gourami who is still alive) and doesn't try to escape. currently in a holding tank for easy catch. Pick up only. please Private message

im looking at buying a 2nd hand 8ft tank. how would i go about relocating it from stapylton to bethania? i want to do is fairly risk free for a decent price... like the mover has non slip mating and some experience with fish tanks but doesn't cost too much. so not a bare ute tray. also what are thoughts on renting a van from bunnings?

derp im blind sorry and thanks

thanks and that is the plan. they don't really say much about the product tho. no mention on size. i wouldn't think so but no idea tbh

hey i thinking of tryin to use pumice stone as like a floating object in the aquarium but im unsure where to get some that are safe for fish. i see chemists selling them but suspect they've probably been cleaned with chemicals. so basically, is it safe to use pumice stone in an aquarium? if so where would one get some that is safe?

well i had a heater goin and found out it was electrocuting the water when i went to feed them, strangely and thankful that none of the fish died.

already found that out, it been lowered again. lookin for a new place/way to have it high up. the vibration was goin down the side of the house through the wall i guess cos was told they couldn't sleep even though they were further away from the pump than i was.

did see some wood diy ones but thought that if not done correctly would probably rot (well bottom track at least). was thinking the 10mm aluminium channel and just put up with having to push one panel back and the other forward so they can pass each other. gonna try and test with some small channel pieces just haven't got around to testing.

i could try velcro, not sure how that will work outdoors but might be a better option than the sliding acrylic as i am having a hard time finding 2 channel 3 meters long.

I took ur advice on raising it and extending the flexible piping. I still need to organise the piping better but is this all good?

i want to attach the acrylic panels i got to the stand for the winter to reduce cooling rate. i can't decide the best way to do it; as i want to still be able to access the bottom tanks to feed but want light in and reduced exposure to the outside temp. thinking hinges or tracks to slides but unsure if they are any good or if there is any better options. think panels are too large for hinges and tracks leave a decent size gap and not exactly sure how to attach them. any suggestions/alternative ideas will be much appreciated. thanks.

this is the 3rd lot of egg, previous 2 weren't fertile (went white). i thought it was because the koi was the male and wasn't old enough but now im pretty sure the koi is a female as i saw her layin eggs and looks like the female in illustrated pic attached. the platinum looks to have male genitalia but seems to either to not be up to the task or another female. should i separate them and try different partners or am i just being impatient?

@aquaholic99 thanks ill change to a longer pipe. searched silicone sleeves came up with some sus results such as "penis clamping clips" to covers for drink bottles. is there a place or more relevant search term for the item ur talking about.

@Munruben1 thanks for all the help. in regards to the pieces if u wanna get rid of em ill be more than happy to take otherwise its best u keep it, never know when ur gonna need them again.
