    correct PM me your email and I will send through the photos To be honest, I would love to try the NZ BBS but with the amount I use, it would cost a bit too much but for those that use less, I would certianly look at using it
  4. before looking at markups, have a look at costs for me to empoly someone I have Public liability ACC insurances wages holliday pay sick pay It costs me all up about $35 perhour to employ someone. Next think of the costs involved with leasing the property Then the over heads (even bank ODs are over 16% interest) now how do they (the LFS) get this money... from the margins on fish. How many will they sell each month and how much of margin do they need. With fish, 100% would not even start to cover costs let alone buy a big mac
  5. I have 2 cars/trucks I have a Nissan Terreno petrol to tow the boat ($160 gets me 400 to 500 Kms) and and 850 Diahatsu Move (where $50 gets me 400 kms)

    I have heaters in all tanks... no heated fish room
  8. at Christmas we go away for 3 weeks and have the fish fed only once a week. Of 47 tanks last christmas, I lost one tank and that was through velet ( being Notho Killis. Not one other loss

    I hatch about one lb every 5 to 6 months and only use sea water
  10. well scribed David
  11. still far cheaper than the UK though $2.12 x 4 (roughly) = $8.48 per gallon $8.48 devided by 2.5 = 3.49 pound? very roughly I think??????
  12. Barrie replied to Rozski's topic in Killies

  14. Barrie replied to a post in a topic in Freshwater

  15. I dont know how many tanks you have but to me a pare heater is a must
  16. with a name like hoody, I think he may be just north of Hamilton... 100 kms
  17. OK OK you got me Suppose I had better get my act together eh
  18. pleased to see this as 50 tanks sitting on the ground isnt a good look
  19. Barrie replied to henward's topic in Killies
    yes yes but males only as most females look very similar sometimes
  20. No Whetu Your being honest. Most people think they need to hide things and your not so no problem I know there are a lot of Landlords out there that are not so good but the majority are good as its there investment. For every bad landlord there are probably 10 bad tenants.
  21. Barrie replied to a post in a topic in Killies
    almost all are easy to breed possibly easier to note those tat are harder
  22. sorry but your thinking of the problem in its most basic form. Far more important is the smell from cats and dogs and the damage thats under the carpet. The fleas that can hatch a few years after the cat and dog have left. The water spills that not only rot the carpet but make a chipboard floor turn to weatbix after the tenant has left. The dampness that means repainting far sooner than would normally be needed and the mould that starts. You would be shocked at some of the places I see where good tenants leave... not the bad ones Just be honest with the landlord and you will probably get a good suprise. remember that he is letting you live in an asset that he probably owes a lot of money on that may well be worth 200 ot 400 thousand. Say its $200,000 if he was to sell it and put the money in the bank, he would get $17000 per year in interest. Thats $325 per week so surely the owner deserves a bit of honesty?
  23. Barrie replied to vindy500's topic in Killies
    ideal size for breeding Im thinking of cutting my 300 x 300 x 300 in half as its too big
  24. thing is that landlords make their money from getting people to pay a fair price and look after the property. They simply want good no problem long term tenants. As soon as they find that they have been lied to or people have "hidden" the facts, it puts doupts into the trust that is needed to have a long term relationship.
  25. it should also include no smoking in cars
