Reef, most places don't have untreated sewerage going straight into the sea. the problem is when there has been heavy rainfall causing overflows or sometimes due to power or mechanical failure. Other things to watch out for is seepage due to septic tanks if you are in an area which still uses these (Huia, Cornwallis etc), or where Rural effluents can wash or seep into the sea from Dairy sheds or piggerys causing high BOD, faecal coliforms, ammonia and nutrients (N &P) (all things you don't want in your tank) Having said that, most people in Auckland use NSW in their reef tanks and have done so for a long time without seeing any ill effects.

welcome

anmal lover if you need some media or substate to help cycle your tank and you are close to me then you can grab some to help your tank cycle. i have a 3ft tank full of stones which i don't need and i can give you them. saves me drying them out. i also am due to replace quite a bit of my media soon so i can give you some of my old stuff to help your tank cycle. flick me a pm if you are close to balmoral

coud well be fish tb. give it to an ichthyologist to have a look at if you have it frozen

again, magnificent pics alois, your reef is looking great. love the wrasse

the site alan is talking bout is http://www.plantgeek.net/

i dont have a bgk but with my puffer i weaned him from live fish only onto earthworms only, and now he is starting to ear freezedried tubiefex out of my hand on a regular basis, albiet not much of it, but i wanted something to supplement an earthworm only diet. Soome fish like puffers bgk etc just need time , effort and patience to wean them onto different food types

yeah- you will kill your fish

yeah i don't look at mine either

no

ha

i would have thought it would be easier to feed from the top. then you wouldn't have to take the whole thing apart to remove the large debris :-?

yeah i think bout 10-12 cm from memory

don't you mean for UARU alan? snookie already has Uaru and wants other fish.(not vice versa)
