Enjoyed your vids, Dudzy.

You are the cod whisperer.

How old is he ? In his second year ? What size pond ?

Spangleds are one of my favourite tank specimens. What are youfeeding them in the video ?

I just picked up 3 new spangleds yesterday for a sojourn in my Coal grunter tank.

Very cool

Come and join in. I have a couple of vids on there.

Just saw your youtube page. Is your cat named after me ?

[Eug]

the ponds look great, saw ecat's the other day and hope to upgrade from tank to pond one day.

[madmullet]

great vid of the cod. he is a stocky little fella

[Dudzy]

Hey guys cheers for the feedback.

Sadly the Cod isn't with us anymore, he choked about a year ago on a tandanus that was 2ft long and pretty fat

Murray was about 2 and a half foot when he died.

The videos are pretty old and I'm actually starting our new pond soon, this ones gonna be a cracker of a pond too.

Haha ally-cat, I never thought about the resemblance in names haha

I'm feeding the spanglies frozen bloodworm in the video, they go wild for that kinda stuff aye.

[elops]

Remember this one

And the mystery of the missing toy poodle :woohoo: :woohoo:

Not finished the pond rebuild yet Dudz ?

[etran]

cool video, sorry to hear bout your cod

[eg_vtec]

thanks for sharing. nice cod

[Dudzy]

Not finished the pond rebuild yet Dudz ?

Not yet, she's not an easy job this one.

I'm thinking I will have to do a fences to keep it 'legal' haha

Also I have to plant alot of plants along our fence line cause I dont want drunk yobbos walkin past at night and throwin sh*t in the water.

But I'm lettin ya know right now, when its complete I will be swimming in it haha

[elops]

Deep end is ok

Shallow end is a bit weedy and theres a sunken boat in the way.

[Dudzy]

Lovin that pond/pool Steve.

Removed some more of the bamboo today, holy crap I hate bamboo stumps... dug in reallllll hard aswell.

Added 3 Dovii to the tank today so they will be going in the pond next summer to get some more size on them.

[elops]

[ellicat]

[Funfisher]

[elops]

P. dovii, their not mine :ohmy: put the pic up for Dudzy

Cod, Jack or Togas will end up in his pond though :whistle:

[Bi_polar]

Loving your pond... If you have a pair of toga in there you should be able to get them to breed. Does anyone else have pics of their fish?

Bi_Polar, there is a AFO Group that has some members' pics etc.

Other than that you can cruise the Pet section of the forum for some random stuff. There's been a few threads.

Do you have some ?

[Dudzy]

Ohhhhh mate, they look awesome Steve. Is that in Aus?

Cod Jack and toga? steve you are an ideas man I tell ya hahaha, thats a dream stocking for the new one aye.

Have kept a large Jardini in my pond a few years ago before Murray was in there and I should of put a net over the top.... He used to jump at the plants around the pond and birds aswell so one day I came home to find him in the garden.

[Bi_polar]

Yeah... i am just in the process of getting rid of my 8 x 2.5 x 2.5 and setting up a 12 x 5. I have been lucky enough to have some really cool fish which have included lots of amazonian stingrays and an Arapiama Gigas. I will have a look for the thread and post some pics.

[Dudzy]

Arapaima aye Nice! how much it set you back when you bought it?

I was always after a Gar for sooooooo long but then that bloody law came in

Also how much for the 8x2.5?

[Bi_polar]

Sold this afternoon for $1200.00 with a huge filtration system... moving bede running K1 media, big sump and sand filter filled with Zeolite.

The Gigas i sold for $2200.00 but when i aquired him i traded some fish and cash.

[ellicat]

Bi_Polar, I have sent you some PM's

[Dudzy]

Man I would of bought that setup for sure!

2200 thats alot of money for a fish aye, but arapaima are one of the maddest fish in the trade

[Bi_polar]

I cant seem to post in the pets section?....so here is a pic till i can make my own post.

[Dudzy]

Very nice!

[Dudzy]

Adding some Dovii to the new pond next summer, growing this guy and two others out in the tank for a bit first though.

Only had them for a few weeks and they are already putting on size.

[Surfingant]

Love the Dovii Dudzy. Used to have a pair of them and at 6 inches the male could eat 5 goldfish and the female 4 in one sitting, was awesome to watch. That one of yours has some real nice colouring on him, did you get him privately or just through a fish shop?

[Dudzy]

Cheers mate.

I got him through Smiths aquarium at Boondall, those guys hold some pretty good quality fish there.

This guy and his three siblings are in the same tank as two other convict pairs and I love watching the Dovii's smash down like 50+ convicts aye.
