what's the south island?

just buy eggs you probably have everything at hand to hatch them laser it on trademe sells eggs with an excellent hatch rate

aussie: do you shear your sheep in nz? kiwi: no we have enough for one each

all of the above plus generator and pump tanks are only 300 metres from the high tide mark :smln:

no oil

moving everything into the big tank tomorrow have had 3 pair of clowns in it before just a bit worried about housing 2 pair of bangaii hope the footprint is big enough will leave a bit of live rock in the 1.5 but take heaters out then hopefully fill 2.4m by the weekend 20 mins to get 1,000l of NSW yesterday :thup:

better remember the syringe

fishing trip this weekend fine weather will be good small hooks, about 30 metres fingers crossed

done the last few meetings so are we organising this tank crawl?

welcome where are you going to study?

do these come with attachments?

yes it looks like a juvie black flounder are they on dark or light substrate do you have plenty of live food?

my 2 handiest tools

another excellent job love the ramshorn snails

this next build i am doing have been thinking of using 3 drains at water level then using large plastic guttering width of tank to create an overflow box onto the fittings 200 litre barrel to house skimmer and socks and then 1,000 litr rockpool for sump using 20mm acrylic for front pane

that seems to be the general consensus

standard like glass just use longer threads on pipe work do 2 or 3 to reduce flow on each or put mesh cage on them

no you don't but it adds strength to it i used 15mm ply then 1 coatof resin allowed to soak in, then mesh and 2 more coats any rocks can chip coat if handled roughly

this is the stuff i used on 3,000ltr http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/boats-m ... 815843.htm

resin is available on TM all the time you will need at least 4 litres and woven matting as well

:slfg: i currently have reef in the 1.5 x 1m tank and getting to the back is an issue i have 3 pairs of clowns in 2 tanks at the moment but want to house all together could get rid of the pair of maroons as they are the stroppiest but i have had them for a few years now the other tanks will house invertebrates, seahorses, fish and anemones etc. need a bad boys tank as well so maybe the 1300ltr for them only have 1 overflow out of this tank so will add 2 more overflows in a herbie style system methinks

which one to do the reef in rest are going to be coldies 2.1m x 1m x 65cm 2.4m x 60cm x 60cm 1.5 x 1m x 65cm 1.8 x .6 x.6 have enough tropical bits to fill any of them
