    Where is the best/cheapest place to get brine shrimp eggs?

    As long as there's daylight in there it'll be fine Clark. Just don't let them get too cold as that will mean they'll take ages to hatch. At 25 degrees they'll hatch in 18-24 hours.

    Where is the best/cheapest place to get brine shrimp eggs?

    They just need some light Clark, they won't hatch if kept in complete darkness. Mine only get room lighting, no extra lamp needed. When you separate them you can use their attraction to light though to help. If you turn off the air the shells float to the top and the unhatched eggs and shrimp...

    Where is the best/cheapest place to get brine shrimp eggs?

    Yeah like dust aren't they?! Great food though - speaking of which I must go and harvest today's batch and feed my fish!

    Where is the best/cheapest place to get brine shrimp eggs?

    Don't forget to keep your brine shrimps eggs in an air-tight container (if you ordered the pouch of Siberian eggs then it's easy to fold it over and use a clip to seal it up) in the fridge. The cold and the lack of oxygen means they will keep and deliver good hatches for ages. Mine current...

    Where is the best/cheapest place to get brine shrimp eggs?

    Do you mean brand of Brine Shrimp? I am currently using the Siberian ones from Tim and they are very good quality. I buy them by the pouch and keep the pouch sealed in the fridge. If you mean seives then look on Tim's site - he only stocks decent gear and the ones he has look better than the...

    Where is the best/cheapest place to get brine shrimp eggs?

    I've got a professional cone (that cost over £30) and also a Pop bottle convertor (on the page with Brine Shrimp eggs on http://www.ta-aquaculture.co.uk/) and to be honest for the money you're better with the latter. I'll be ordering a couple more when I place my next order of Brine shrimp...

    Maidenhead Aquatics

    I've just been to the West Bridgford branch today and bought 18 Norman's Lampeyes. Had a great selection of nano fish for anyone in the Notts area. Small rasboras, barbs, killis, pencils and lots more. Decent plant selection too, but need more!

    Where to buy in the Midlands.

    Maidenhead Aquatics @ Wheatcrofts Garden Centre, West Bridgford, Nottingham. I've just paid a visit to this new branch to the south of Nottingham today. There was a really good range of planted tank equipment, including a lot of JBL gear (including a range of CO2 kits) and I had a good chat to...

    Where to buy vases online?

    I don't know about online, but IKEA often have a load of glass square vases in various small sizes. Cheap too.

    Wild type scalare angels

    Yeah there's a mated pair in the tank in the school entrance and the spare survivor is in the tank in my class with some Steatocranus tinanti. ***I've copied the bits of this topic about my school into the 'Off Topic' Forum and deleted the posts about it here***

    Cheers mate. If it is I'll pass it twice a day on the commute and I'll even be able to get there and back during lunchtime too!!! Fingers are firmly crossed! :mrgreen:

    Don't suppose you know where in Nottingham this is likely to be do you? I heard a rumour that there was to be a MA in a garden centre near my school in West Bridgford. Could I be that lucky? :lol:

    Wild type scalare angels

    Mine are at school I'm afraid so it'll be a couple of weeks before I'm back there! Will take some pictures then. They look like the photo EO1 on the Finarama link, except the angle between snout and body isn't as severe.

    Oh and have a look here for some help with IDing wild angels, http://www.finarama.com/tba/identification.htm

    Wild type scalare angels

    The bump in the nose is shown by a number of wild angel forms. The only ones that never seem to show it are P.dumerelli/leopoldii and domestic hybrid angels. My wild 'Peruvian Altums' (P.scalare) have a similar bump. I believe one of the main distinctions of true altums is a very high height...

    Wild type scalare angels

    Peruvian altums are scalare so they'd be fine. One place to try would be Wholesale Tropicals. They're on Bethnal Green Road and they have a stock list on Tropical Fish Finder. Here it is! They don't list whether the angels they have are wild or captive bred, but the guy has lots of unusual...

    Buy cheap fish online

    There are some great online retailers who will carefully package and send fish so please don't take that all will cause these problems. I think the key to some of your problems at least may be the fact that you get what you pay for! Go with a quality online supplier and you'll find the...
