In Topic: Need Help Finding A Fish

Have you spoke to Paul at Morley aquariums ?? Or maybe fish room as he gets a lot of TB


Good point I will defiantly ask Morley aquariums!

haven't seen any in awhile, was an influx from over east around a year ago.
my thoughts they where noxious or grey listed what ever the hell Fisheries are doing these days.
just have cash ready and when one pops up jump on it.
last lot of RTGG I saw here where around $300 @5cm odd. There's always a couple on the QLDAF forum, but most will be larger then small.
if you do find some here or can get hold of some, tell me to please I wouldn't mind a red tail.


The hard part is trying to find one Inbetween small and large I have my heart set on one that's around 15cm but I'm pretty much asking for the impossible ️haha I want to see it grow up but don't want it to small cause it would get eaten in my tank, will be upgrading to a 8x2.5x2.5 by the end of the year
Will defiantly let you know !

Hey mate the males have 2 holes and the females have one, very hard to determine the most accurate way to tell if you have a pair would be to wait to see if they spawn.

So last night my larger canister filter broke, that's got me thinking maybe it hasn't been operating as well as it should of been and maybe that was the reason the nitrates were bad? Would this be the cause? Lucky I have a spare and I swaped all the old medial over to the new filter so will see how it goes!

Mate API nitrate test... Bin the sucker! They can read way too high!
Unless your filters are chockers full of crap, I guarantee you dont have nitrates as high as the poxy test is telling you.


I'm starting to think its not accurate after all the water changes it's still ready 40ppm better the 80ppm what it was saying before but I don't think the tank and filters could be any cleaner without causing damage to the tanks cycle

I haven't actually tested after the 80% water change was going to wait a few days first
