Thanks, I really like my male, he's one of my favorite fish but right now he has an internal parasite which I'm treating for (any good remedy's would be appreciated).
Today I actually went out to find a Gold male as I am thinking about setting up a Saum community of 2 male (1S/1G) and 4 females (2S/2G) (will this work with two males in one tank?), but when I saw the silvers (which are rare here) I had to get at least one.
About a month ago I saw a real stunna of a female Silver Saum which was around 6" long and looked as good as my male. I didn't buy her as mine had fry at the time. :cry:I should have bought her:cry: .

If you were here I would give you my other gold male.He's smaller around 5+".Nice specimen but.Also a smaller female too.The smaller male won't mix with my Cuban so he has to go.To bad as I think he is the better of the 2 males in shape .As for mixing,I think it could be done in a say a 180.Aquascaped so each pair had one end each.As for the extra females ,I think it will be the paired females that do the damage to them .
Attached a pic of him aswell.

How far is it from brisbane to Adelaide? :grinno: If you want to hold on to him for 2-3 months I'll be in your area but otherwise.

Holiday or making the move?If you are serious and have a way of travelling back with him,I'll happilly hold onto him for you.
 
Just something to do, drove to melbourne to get donuts for a mate for his 21st with two mates and after we were like "that was interesting, where next". And brisbane it is, I wanna pick up some nice fish aswell (kinda forgot to in Melbourne :duh: ), I'd put them in a big esky with an airator, and do a waterchange half way.

Use a seeded foam filter with the airator.That way you have bacteria working in your favour while travelling.I can supply you with one when you get here if you want.Does the esky keep your water warm enough.Not that it gets that cold here but for at your end.If you are serious ,PM me for sometime address.I'll hold him for you if you want.Would be good to see him go to a Mfker.
 
I'll ask my mates and if they are still up for it, I sure am. I wanna see brisbane anyway and I want time off work. I went to the goldcoast in Nov 06 but didn't see brisbane itself and I regret it. I'll PM you in the next couple of days with an anwser (probably wednesday night or thursday morning). Ask for the esky, I'll put it on the back seat and use climate control 25*C all the way.

No worries.Climate control.Gotta love it.:headbang2
 
Green terrors are pretty cool, kinda messy though. I have four one is about 8 inchs one is about 6 inches and 2 are about 4.5 inches. The male is the biggest one. He acts like a doggie. when I stick my face close to the tank he rams his head into the glass and he'll do something with his mouth to make him look mean. I'll post some pics of this later!!!!
