cutting slate

I borrowed a wet saw to cut mine, not usually any loss or breakage that way, and everything comes out with edges you can put together. You can usually rent them for a few hours really cheap

Any updates with the Zebra's? I may be interested in a couple if you can get them. I can get them, I get a shipment in every other week or so, once they get their money, they send them to me in the same shipment as my other stock. The price at $350 us for adults seems to stand, although they droppe...

zebs in Canada

Not sure if I can help you or not, money with zebs is the big issue . I recently bought a transshipping business, so I can get fish into Canada from just about anywhere without too much trouble. Easiest, is from Thailand because I already bring Bettas in on a regular basis, its just a matter of addi...

got 2 pairs in a tank, no pics yet though!

Frustrating not having a digital camera, but I'll try and snap some
regular photos and post them. I'm willing to sell one of the pairs,
and I KNOW one is a female and no doubt about the male....
But I'm not so sure I'm ready to ship just yet.

powerheads

i've been toying with this one too. I've got various size tanks to equip, so figuring out what works where is a pain in the rear end. I use undergravel with all my tanks, as well as an external -on the side of the tank-kind of powerfilter. I'm just trying to work out the extra circulation. Oxygen is...

I guess I"m a little slow at getting in on this one but I must say its been a very good read! The thing is, I don't necessarily think anyone is wrong here- we tend to base alot of what we do on our own experience, and that will vary from person to person. I have done my fair share in dealing wi...

Don't worry, you didn't kick the hornets nest and maybe getting some of this aired out will settle things down. We have a few members with very differing views that obviously have no intention of "getting along". That doesn't mean you need to take it to heart because you posted a question...

Re: Hi

Well Madmorrocan answering your question. Different people have different approaches to this fish in particular, and the extremes are totally commercial or just for love, and there are many points inbetween. The ideal being getting this fish back to pre-ban prices and also supplying good quality fi...

I certainly dont have any objections to taking younger fish. I also understand the shipping issues. I'm also willing to drive to pick up stock, preferably within 18 hrs drive, and from here that could even be northern california or ontario and anywhere between those points. Instant gratification isn...

do you need more info? Help! I need stock! Please read!

Lets try this again- with some more info about me. The animals I've been dealing with for the last 20 years are the rarest breed of their species in North America, and I have been not just a part of its recovery from near extinction, but have an outstanding reputation for quality and ethics. I have ...

serious buyer for zebra brood stock, ship ok, nd quality!

ok, tried to cram too much into the subject line :) Anyways, I am a serious buyer, of course in need of females but would consider a breeding group size negotiable. Quality and age is important, if they've already been successfully bred that would be a bonus. I'm a long time breeder of rare species,...
