  1. You may wish to remind the manager that your tenancy entitles you to what the law terms 'quiet enjoyment' of the property you lease, i.e. unless you are damaging the property or creating a disturbance with it you don't have to do a thing. Phone his boss and let him know what the new guy has said and suggest he gets a bit of training before he winds up getting the company sued.
  2. Or alternatively, just support your LFS.

    Tanning

    Just wait - it will stop eventually.

    SAND CLEANER

    'tis true, but way too big for an RSM. I'd suggest a starfish (tiger brittle star)
  5. 2nded. There is almost nil margin for error with nanos, and when things go bad they do so very quickly.
  6. I hear it isn't looking so flash now. I wonder why.
  7. I'm not talking about the Max (but yes, they aren't as reliable as you'd hope), I'm refering to my 20cm cube.
  8. Daily. Like I said, the novelty soon wore off
  9. That will work, but it will also lose its novelty value pretty quickly. I've had an 8 litre nano (20cm cube) with zoos, xenia, etc., but when all was said and done it was a lot of work for not a lot of reward. Unless you really want to do it, I'd recommend a Red Sea Max as the smallest, cheapest PRACTICAL solution - but it is by no means without limitations.
  10. FYI Bubble and Squeak have had a shipment arrive - Mandarins, Chromis, Flame Hawk, Tusk(?) Tang, plus green Coralimorphs, a Sun Coral, Bali Brains, and some sort of Porites or something with live Christmas Tree Worms. Might be worth a look for those of you struggling to find new stock...
  11. You can't scrape acrylic with razor blades - it too soft and will scratch. Best used for areas that won't need to be cleaned much (like the front panel).

    AUTO TOP OFF

    I still use he Jug-O-Matic 2000. It is voice command controlled. I say "Honey, I'm busy sitting in front of the TV in my undies playing with my slot cars - will you stick some water in the tank" and a few moments later it done.
  13. Reasonably often if you ship HP :lol:
  14. I'd just give them a good quality varied diet including plenty of blood worms and JBL 'cichlid' and 'discus' and so all the colours are good.
  15. Meh - just build a real tank

    New Filter

    Eheim 2028 - I now use them on all my tanks because they are quiet, reliable, easy to service, have the big pipes that don't clog, and are good value at less than $400.

    REDSEA MAX

    Hi perren, I've removed all the sponge and yes, some particulate matter does get through the system and back into the tank, although it doesn't seem to cause any real problems. The skimmer should remove most particulate matter anyway (that is what it is supposed to do). Just try it and see how it goes - if you are unhappy with the result just put some sponge back in
  18. Good on you then - you have my genuine admiration for growing a brain. Not so some others, I'm afraid...
  19. I'm not fighting a losing battle at all - I'm on the winning side just by dint of not smoking. Like every other smoker, you'll know that soon enough, unfortunately. Not even my Grandfather's bloated rotting corpse was enough to convince my brother to stop smoking, so I very much doubt any smoker on here will take any advice - being stubborn seems to be a necessary trait to continue smoking despite all the evidence that suggests you shouldn't. Oh well, never mind - they aren't my lungs so I'll wait 'till then to say 'I told you so'
  20. Why you started counts for nothing now. You should know better by now. Stop Smoking. Go visit (and smell the live people rotting) a cancer ward if you need motivation (or are still the curious type)
  21. Tolerance is not required for idiot smokers. Exterminate! Exterminate!
