rosequoll Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 Glad I checked the date, I figured it'd be the 7th here (saturday) but it's Friday! Don't forget to send me details on how to get Tadpole there and what time. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
th3f0rg0t3n Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 does your tadpole enjoy being caught out / driven around and put on display ? i imagine its a stressful adventure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tech Den Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 You never know, maybe with it having lungs it might like the window down to put the head out the window while being driven along.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosequoll Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 He doesn't *seem* to mind much at all, honestly. He doesn't like being in a bag, but once into a tank he just settles down for the day (or weeks, for the Ekka). If I ever felt he was in distress I wouldn't do it.

I'll get a video of him wiggling his fins while I pet him sometime. They're a funny fish. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterJ Posted September 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Just a reminder, it's this Friday! Queen Street Mall, 8:00am - 2:00pm! If you're in the city why not come and meet tadpole and check out the displays. Besides the fish there'll be Dreamworld, Australia Zoo, bats, snakes, frogs etc etc... pffft!

Your a legend Rose, that is such great news you can take tadpole along. I would come a long for a look but coincidentally I am involved in a meeting at Griffith Uni organising a research project on lungfish. So I guess I'm doing my bit for threatened species day. Good luck with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thalion Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I spoke to Steve Baines this afternoon. He will have a nice Honey Blue Eye tank. Appreantly there will be a display of photos from Gunter also (which are always excelent). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterJ Posted September 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 We just got word we can't use our own screen , so Gunther's photos will only be on during the talks (around 12:45). Drop by and say hi if you're on the mall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thalion Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 What a shame. Ah well at least he gets to show some of them. Is someone going to post pics for those of us that can't get there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
