Those fish will need a huge tanks when they grow

Here's my estimate(all new) Tank- 1.2m x 0.5m x0.5m $200 Ceramic heat lamp and holder ($100) 6500k(ish) Light ($100) Substrate for young = newspaper Food = $50 to start off with? My prices are prob low end... So $600 shouldn't be far off Shop around for gear

Bulbs produce more than the ballasts in my experience

Yeh i couldn't find the name(hang over :roll: ) Large tanks don't faze me Above quote is for others benefit Anyone know the growth rate of giants? Stella doesn't.

Go fill the tanks up for them and move the fish to other tanks that are more suitable within the shop? Did you complain to the manager?(not just the staff) Ring the SPCA asap

Europe have much higher chlorine contents in their pools AFAIK Off the top of my head i was told 10 parts per million, local pools run about 3-5 parts per million here. I was a lifeguard for almost 2 years at a pool. I know what goes into the pools (fecal and chem wise)

Imagine water changes You planning on using salt water for the sea or instant ocean?
-
I think it depends where they come from Here in Taupo you have to have approval to remove them from the lake(approval from the local maori's) If they are farmed, no worries in regards to keeping them AFAIK Im not sure about getting them from other water sources in nz Would be cool to breed them Stella may know more

May go for a hunt in the coming weeks, we will see what they are! Temp down how low?
-
Anyone here done this? Experiences? I have been told that my tank will need to be kept under 22c. Its currently @ 20c Trying to decide if i should get Giant/s or normals I have access to Kokopu on a Tauranga farm, funny feeling they will be normals and not Giants

Carbon is usually used for removing meds from the water. Id remove it as it most likely wont be benefiting the system and then you can add more wool or noodles which may help the system more than the carbon was. When used(carbon) its advised to remove it after 6-8 weeks as it can sometimes "dump" or "leech" whats its absorbed back into the water.
-
Media is used to store beneficial bacteria. Remove the carbon and replace it with more wool and ceramic rings/noodles
-
When it becomes clogged enough to not allow water to pass through. What other media do you have?

Totally depends on budget! Could spend from $150 to well over $400 on a pump Whats your budget? Iv been told eheim pumps are good. Personally ill be using 2 Resun sp-6000 pumps in my 375L tank Why not use dual pumps? So if ones has problems you have a back up
