setting up 2 large tanks, 1 for penguin and possibly sea turtle rehabilitation so will need to sustain fish population. And 2 is for the fact that ever since i was a young fishkeeper i always wanted a tank i could swim in. lol my own private rock pool

I realise that, but nothing ventured and nothing gained, found out about one in tauranga recently, owned by very old lady, brought it out from england when she was girl, have been promised it, but i have to wait for the white coats to take her away

Looking for an older Spur thigh female for our lonely male, hes 52 years young and is sick of mating with my old workboot we gave him for company. looking for an active non smoker, with good sense of humour, preferably under 150 years old. Sorry to be racist but for cultural reasons must be another spurthigh although other races will be considered for neighbours

Need 25,000 litres of NSW, will be keeping mainly fish, one tank is for penguin rehabilitation the other as a 15,000 litre local marine set up. After researching on overseas sites will probably set up with 1/3 NSW, 2/3 sea salt then keep on adding NSW on a monthly basis. A lot of the more volatile elements are "lost" through drying process and can replace them but i need large quantities. otherwise Iam buying one hell of a lot of fish and chips in the future

Hi Les, no hatchlings, my bro is handling incubation no luck yet, we disagree on methods. got a red male and yellow female so will have a go myself. sad times on greenies the powers that be make descisions based on erroneous facts, then go in heavy handed. good to see you have got your feeding sorted out for babies congratulations

well i thought it was big but i got given a 30,00 litre water tank so have cut it down to about 15,000 litres, always wanted a tank i could swim in. Originally built for penguin rehabilitation but will be keeping local marines to allow penguins to learn how to catch their dinner before return to wild. Koi swordies are doing well. Idont know about being famous but I am a legend in my own mind. lol

livingart replied to Graeme Holden's topic in Reptiles and Amphibians
they are all turtles but tortoise is used to refer to terrestrial turtle, just remember they have to have a taut-ass to keep the water out. LOL -

hI Graeme we have 40+ red ears, 10 snakenecks and six reeves, we feed oxheart, fish and kitten cat biscuits (biskats) soaked in water for 10 mins to soften. to get turtles eating them use the red ones and feed in amongst some oxheart, seems to get them going, thanks for the tip on pillies have a local baitman who can supply, cheers mark -
