Just moved down here from the waikato and looking at starting again . I have a 120cmx50 which is currently empty but would like to do some aqua scaping in that .  But ultimately  I would love to get fighters again , I was breeding about 5 years ago but my work at the time didn't allow the time to continue and/or do the fish justice.

Welcome. There have been some interesting fighters bred over the last few years.

Welcome to the site.

Thank you .   Have started collecting the thing I'm going to need for the aquascaping . So excited to get started ..

And I would need a few more tanks before I think about bettas again, but would love too

Welcome aboard

Welcome, I'm in also in Hawkes bay 

Awesome . We have just moved to waipawa from the waikato .. certainly interesting  

 

Howdy, I am looking forward to seeing photos of your aquascape, that seems to be a theme in the country now, which is awesome.

Thank you ..  I'm really wanting to make like bonsai  trees so finding appropriate  wood is interesting.. and currently organising the right CO2 system which I know nothing  about but reading plenty of articals

you will not regret going with a co2 system, I love my pressurized injected set up.

Yip definately going for a pressurized setup ..  just deciding on what cylinder ..  being rural do I go for a bigger tank that will last longer or go for the sodastream bottles which are easy to source and cheap enough to have multiple replacement bottles ..

Tough question, what about two larger bottles, on a rotation system?
I have never used a sodastream system, only larger bottles so I can not help too much on them- but plenty of others have done it that way.

Hi! :-)
