I knew you were breeding Red Capuz, but thought that with all these nice new "rarish" fish you've brought in, you forgot to advise members (me!) of a new Lethrinops variant... lol

This week must be breeding week or something! Just saw one of my Lethrinops Longipinnis holding! That's 5 out of 5 Lethrinops species that I have, with mouthfuls (except for the Albus who recently had some fry!) 
All I need now, is for the Metriaclima sp. 'membe deep' to hold and I will be a very very happy guy!

Well, you asked what drift wood was so I told you. It's dead wood that is found floating along rivers etc. It doesnt need to be a specific type of wood to be classified as drift wood.
And don't bloody show attitude around here mate, it won't get you anywhere.

could someone define DRIFT wood, what type of wood can and can not be used. i.e. jarrah? wood found floating at the beach? wood found at King Park?
drift (drft)
v. drift·ed, drift·ing, drifts
v.intr.
1. To be carried along by currents of air or water: a balloon drifting eastward; as the wreckage drifted toward shore.
2. To proceed or move unhurriedly and smoothly: drifting among the party guests.
3. To move leisurely or sporadically from place to place, especially without purpose or regular employment
wood (wo̵od)
noun
1. a thick growth of trees; forest or grove
2. the hard, fibrous substance beneath the bark in the stems and branches of trees and shrubs; xylem
3. trees cut and prepared for use in making things; lumber or timber
4. firewood
5. something made of wood; specif.,
1. a cask or other wooden container for alcoholic liquor: whiskey aged in wood
2. woodwind instruments, collectively
6. Golf any of a set of numbered clubs, originally with wooden heads, having various lofts: the number 1 wood is usually called a driver (); the number 2 wood, number 3 wood, and number 4 wood are used for long, medium, and short fairway shots, respectively
So... drift wood in Aquarium sense means dead wood that's been floating/underneath water..

It's all good mate..
Anyways, most "drift wood" can be used in the Aquarium as long as the environment that you got it from is quite clean. That's why most people "cure it" just to make sure, before putting it in their tanks..
Golly, most people soak their wood in a tub of water for days and even weeks to make it sink. Some even go to the extent as boiling the wood (ask permission from missus first to use her pots etc.) to kill off unwanted bacteria etc.

Pretty much, spot on! Not sure on the Oak leaf thingy though.. never tried it...
And if you've found a place to get wood which will look dynamic in an Aquarium, you can give them a good wash and sell them.. the nice pieces will be worth abit..

So, for example Den. I am breeding (and/or trying to breed) 3 different Lethrinops (more if I could find them!!). They're kept in 3 different tanks so there's no chance of cross-breeding etc. Is that what you're referring to?

Sorry if this sounds stooopid... but what's the BAP for? I assumed that was a register of fish being bred by members? Isn't it the same sort of thing?

most cichlid people want to pay next to nothing for their fish , want top dollar for their fry and spend next to nothing at the shops
I'm willing to pay $$$ for fish I like... I basically give excess fish/fry away... and I spend sh&*loads at LFS..
