I have found drinking tea keeps me going.. Other then that the new Robbert Harris coffee at Food Town are good. There is even a cookies and cream flavor one!!! or Starbucks sells ground coffee for the plunger. I had a slightly spicy one from there and it was very good - cant remember the name sorry.

Might be looking to sell my Oddballs & tank
Bryan and I looked at trying to get more in to the country but no one was able to import them for us. When I win lotto I will set up and try import oddballs ok... Thank you everyone who expressed intrest. Im sure there are a few more Dels out there some where and hopefully you can all get your hands on one someday. To the people who will try contact Mark and try offer him more money for him... Dont try. There was a reason I did not choose you. And money was not part of my desision.

Might be looking to sell my Oddballs & tank
Well i have made my decision.. After much thought... I have chosen LivingArt to have my fish . Not only is he a wonderful person but I think all the fish will flourish under his care. Sorry to everyone who missed out.. And everyone still interested in the tank and equipment they are all up for grabs in 3-4 weeks when the tank will be dismantled. So far all the plants are gone but everything else is there. Candy

Thanks David It is two peices. They fit togeather in lots of ways. Be aware the tank is 2 foot high by 2 foot wide so not the smallest bits of wood in the world.

Might be looking to sell my Oddballs & tank
Have been talking to my partner. Yes we are going to sell. Everyone who has expressed interest in things please Pm me with your offers. The fish will be going to who I think will look after them the best. Yes money is a factor but not a huge one. As for breeding the Del ... good luck! I have heard of only one other person with one and we both have males.... As for the filter, lights, wood, gravel ect please pm with offers as I don't know what they are worth second hand. Everything is in good working condition. EDIT: Have been asked about what the fish are eating. Shrimp, carnivore sinking pellets and blood worms. The BGK will also eat color Bits and live bugs off the surface of the water. All are eating well expesh the BGK and Dat who are little pigs..... Will work on pics. Your welcome to veiw them aswell.

Might be looking to sell my Oddballs & tank
Hi Mark Um don't really know about prices as don't know what they are worth. I will also need to talk to my other half ( have not told him about this as of yet) We payed $160 for the delhezi 3 years ago and he was about 7cm then. Ornate I payed $100ish about 6months ago and he has doubled in size. So would be open to offers on the above. Will want about $80 for the BGK. about $50 for the Borneo... Plants I'm not to fussed about as they are covered in hair algae but still huge and healthy. Driftwood would be prop $50 for the large twisted bit and $30 for the large wall like bit.... you will have to visit to see the true value of the peices. Just trying to get a feel of things.. Also if and when we sell I wont be shipping them.. Just to risky. These fish are more then just my pets but more like my babies. Also I would be gratefull if we do sell them that if they need to sold again I get the choice to get them back. Expesh the Delhezi and the BGK. I will try get some pis.. just need to clean the glass and steel my little bro's tallent.

Might be looking to sell my Oddballs & tank
Hi Everyone Lately I have been having a serious thought about selling my fish and dismantling my 4 foot tank. What I want to know is who if anyone would be interested to buy my fish and offer them a good home. I have 1x Black ghost knife fish 20cm+ 1x Ornate bichir 15cm (quiet young still) 1x Delhezi bichir 15cm ish (very girthy and very slow growing) 1x Borneo (Datnoid) 10cm and growing fast. All happily living together. I am feeding them on carnivore sinking pellets, shrimp and blood worms. The BGK will also take live bugs like wax moth larva off the surface. Would not be even contemplating this if it was not for the fact I'm swamped with uni work and still have a post grad diploma in teaching to go and I am unable to get as much joy from keeping them as I used to. Plus the other half has gone marine dotty and is setting up a second tank (in my wardrobe of all places!!!) and can't help me look after them. If the fish go the tank or the stuff in it will also have to go. So some one might also be interested in my two huge and very cool bits of driftwood and the Aqua one cf1000 filter and the lighting (4ft double tube and 3ft double tube). I also have lots of large plants - Amazon swords, rose swords, marbled queen swords etc....Slightly algae covered . So what I want to know is who would be interested...

Power-meowing
She will prob sleep on your bed for a month or so then move to a new spot in the house . I have 4 kitties! (crazy I know) and two of them I hand reared. One follows my brother around and sleeps on his bed and the other follows my boyfriend around. But I think the BF is just as attached to the cat as she is to him. we where hoping this following was something they would grow out of but they are both 4 now and still doing it.

what to feed ?
We have just started to dose this aswell. So far seen small improvements in the tube worms and softy corals. And if anything we are having less nutriance problems then before but this could be from a number of factors. Each to their own I guess

Hotwater bottle season is beginning.. would you believe it?
I love winter!! Much prefer to pile on the clothing then take it off . Pulled out all my winter woolies yesterday and am loving the weather today. And the best thing about winter is having an excuse to get in the shower or tub in the middle of the day. Only down side is it getting dark early.

Water at Takapuna
Has anyone calculate how much it would cost to do water changes in their big tanks with ASW? Tanks 200l and up? When I first set up my little 80l ASW was easier to use but now my tank is larger I did not even contemplate using ASW as it would of been a hassle getting a large enough container to mix it in then having to buy the salt.. Plus I love the looks and questions people ask when I'm collecting at Taka. :lol: Next task is getting an RODI - Thank you Bryan for letting me steal your water lol.

Can anyone help?
