Just like to share a couple of pictures of my Petricola which have spawned again after moving them into a tank of their own. Mum looks like she is ready to go again. The fry are about 3weeks old.

Thanks for the comments guys. A bit of bad news, unfortunitly I have had an outbreak of whitespot in the tank with the fry. As you maybe aware treating these catfish with medications is dificult so I am using heat, tri-sulpher and salt. Not looking good but hopefully a few will survive.

sorry to hear about the losses.

i loved all your fish tony! you have some great stuff!!

oh yes brfore i forgget my dad said to teoll you that he would be extreemly happy to help you in designing/ building/ constructing your new fish room/ garage.

see dad is an architect by profession and is involved in landsaping architecture. he progect mannaged the vines, pelican piont (bunbry) and hamilton island resort in the whitsundays..
so he enjoys what he does and is very good at it, but he's modest about it.

he has done alot of small rooms so if you need a had designing/drawing/biulding let me know. he really enjoys that stuff and i think i might have got him hooked on fish!!!

Cheers

Arron

Thank your dad for the offer Aaron. I would appreciate any help with it. I havent started it yet because I am not particularly handy and not been sure where to start makes it a bit overwhelming.
