#365701 Fish Lost In Balls

Posted by danotaylor on 22 April 2018 - 09:16 AM in Cichlid Discussion

I have a mate in Detroit who recovered a petro trewavasse from his FX5 that was almost 4cm. It had prolly been in there 4-5 months since he last cleaned the canister. Apart from some light sensitivity issues it recovered nicely...

👍



#364747 Fluval Edge Tanks

Posted by danotaylor on 21 January 2018 - 11:52 AM in Technical & Equipment

Not sure if you were seeking a product review or not, but I have had both sizes mentioned. The taller 46 is great if you're planning a mini reef tank, or keeping mid water species. I found that if the m8d to upper water column is devoid of movement its kinda pointless amd a bit of an eye sore. The smaller is great for bottom dwellers, shellie's, shrimp etc. Not the easiest design to keep algae free but very classy and cool looking when done nicely. Have fun!

#364086 How To Catch Cichlids

#364085 How To Catch Cichlids

Posted by danotaylor on 11 November 2017 - 04:01 PM in Cichlid Discussion

A few years ago (2010) I caught a 8" female specimen at Altone Park lakes, and a 10" male under the car bridge in a feeder creek of Bennet Brook. I also netted close to 50 1-2" juvies at Altone Park.
Az took possession of the female at MPAC when he was the fishroom head honcho there, along with a dozen or so juvies. I put the male in a large display tank at my work. Good memories. Wild caught brasilliensis in Aus...no certificates lol 😂😂

#363958 G'day From The Usa

Posted by danotaylor on 05 November 2017 - 12:38 PM in Introduce Yourself !

G'day Az,
Great to hear back from you mate. Sadly there are not any decent aquarium shops in Toledo where I live. I have purchased almost all of my fish privately. There is a great market for private sales in the states and shipping seems pretty easy, though I have never sent shipped fish, only received shipped fish. There are some good stores in the Cincinnati area where my in laws live. Will to post some pics next time I go down 👍
Bless you and yours mate!



#363945 G'day From The Usa

Posted by danotaylor on 04 November 2017 - 01:05 PM in Introduce Yourself !

Thx mate. Yea they have $1/gal sales about 3-4 times per year but usually only on sizes 55gal (standard 4 footer) and below. I have had my years of multitank fish keeping and I'm content now with just the 1. I change my fish every yr or 2 to keep it interesting. Fish prices are crazy cheap here compared to back home. I got those 9 × F1 Kap's (10-15cm) shipped to the airport nearest me for $400 total. When I left Australia F1 zaire fry at 3cm were $65-85 a piece.
Anyhoo thx for the re-welcome mate 👍

Posted by danotaylor on 03 November 2017 - 08:44 PM in Introduce Yourself !

G'day PCS crew. It's me, Dano. I moved to the U.S. with my family almost 5yrs ago. Just stopped by to say howdy yo!
To all the die hards that I used to know; Dave (Ice), Ray, Az, Riggers, Daz, Tony, Scotty, Brad, Alex, Werdna, Krystal, and more, I send my greetings from abroad!
I have 1 tank here, a 6x18x20 stocked with 9 F1 cypho Kapampa, 7 Orange lelupi, 5 juli regani, 2 trets, and 2 black calvus.
Hope you're all doing great. Of course my Aussie presence here is helping "make America great" again, lol 😂😂
Catch ya's around again sometime.
Dano
