I Found Nemo! Do you want him?

The Hi-Tek Aquariums have a good supply of these popular little fish., and all the requirements for setting up a tank of your own.
Nemo, (the clown fish) is a small tropical fish famous for its bright orange-and-white coloration and its affinity for hiding in clusters of sea anemones. 
Whether you're an experienced marine life enthusiast or just a fan of Finding Nemo, caring for a clown fish can be a somewhat serious commitment, so it's important to understand exactly what the job entails before you make your purchase. Luckily, compared to many other tropical fish, clown fish are generally quite hardy and simple to care for!  Here's a link to a page that explains in detail how it's done;

Setting up a Nemo Tank, and you'll be fascinated by the array of salt water anemones and corals you'll find at Hi-Tek Aquariums.

    Living with a King

    Image
    Australian King Parrots ( Alisterus scapularis)  Despite their size, they are known to be among the more quiet parrot species and tend to not scream as much as other large birds like Macaws. Instead, they tend to pleasantly vocalize with whistles and chatter.  When properly socialized and motivated, Australian King Parrots can learn to talk, but they are not especially noted for remarkable speaking ability. In captivity, Australian King Parrots live an average of 25 to 30 years with proper care. Being large birds, they need plenty of room to exercise. They love to climb, swing, and chew, so a very large cage with plenty of safe toys is the optimum environment for them.  Although they generally don't crave human interaction as much as some other parrot species, they still require a minimum of 3 to 4 hours of supervised out-of-cage playtime per day. This should take place in a large "bird-proof" area of your home, as Australian King Parrots are very cur

    The Million Dollar Bird Flock

    Image
      I was amazed to come across a huge flock of Corellas on my walk back to my Hotel at Caves Beach. There must have been about one thousand grazing on a field of flowers. (Watch video above). These a well known in Australia and offered as pets at about $1000, for a suitably reared and innoculated pet bird. I was looking at a bird flock that looked like a million bucks! The Little Corella (Cacatua sanguinea) is one of the small species of cockatoo.  It’s feathers are white, a small rim of pink-orange feathers around the bill and yellow feathers under the wings. The bill and feet are bone-colored. The crest is small and white. The blueish naked patch around the eye is much bigger than in other species. 

 This species is one of the most common species of cockatoos in the wild. It occurs in Australia, mostly on open fields and is increasingly common in urban and agricultural areas. This species is one of the few species of animals that thrives because of human i

    Owl Finches Appear in Northern Sydney Botanic Garden

    Image
    A visit today to Boongala, a beautiful native plant garden in Kenthurst surprised me  with the appearance of a small flock of dainty little  Owl Finches (Taeniopygia bichenovii). Surprising because they are seldom seen in the Sydney surrounds. In fact, the garden's owners say that people come from far and wide just to see these little birds flying about their 11 hectare property. The  Owl finch  (Taeniopygia bichenovii) is found in dry savannah, tropical (lowland) dry grassland and shrubland habitats in northern and eastern Australia. They are sometimes referred to as Bicheno's finch, and also as Double Barred Finch. Owl finches can be bred in cages or aviaries, in pairs or in colonies of 3 or more pairs. They have been bred in standard breeding cages and in longer flight cages. They will take a variety of nest boxes,  and baskets with a real preference for the baskets. They will use dried grasses, coconut fibers, feathers and strips of paper in their nest cons
