What is the minimum tank size for these guys?

Pet Bus, they are awesome!

I am travelling next weekend.

Wainuiomata Coast after a rain.

Quite a large tyre track eel, took the "filter" end off for cleaning in 5mins he was up there wrapped around the propellor

You mean you do not do this already? Sheesh! I spent most Saturdays doing this They have to clean the glass after me cause I am too close and leave drool marks

I am going Welly to Napier in Oct?

The tank is opposite a sunny window and has some algae eaters in there, but I think every six months or so I may just have to give the tank a good clean myself.

Thanks for a very detailed answer, I will try it this weekend.

OK after many debates with the partner we have decided to go marine. Now I will admit I know barely any-thing, but I am going to start on a step by step learning curve, and am not going to rush and do this over night. Now I have a 320 L tank on a rimu stand with hood. No holes drilled out. Filtered with a Fluval 204/205 will double check that. Jebo Heater. Nothing fancy. Now I want to start by asking what basic equipment do I need? Brands, sizes.. i.e skimmer, lights, filters . . . Followed by items needed? (externally) i.e refractormeters My goal by next year (will need to fund the project as I go, yes I am prepared to spend money) is to have a marine tank, fulled with live corals with a few fish, clown, tangs few others in mind. Hope some-one can point me in the right direction!

Hopefully tomorrow is sunny and will leave them outside while I am at work! I do not want to try bleach as knowing my luck . . . Good old scrubbing it is.

Calcite and Limestone

I have not kept up with my strict tank cleaning schedules due to study, so have pulled my cichlid tank apart to give it a good clean! My question is: how do I get green algae off calcite rocks? -Currently using a scrubbing brush and hot water but leaning over the bath is killing my back, any-one use any-thing else? That is more faster. -This does work, but it took about 25 minutes to turn one green rock to a lovely white rock. I have a variety of sizes! HYH thanks

Well we got the kitten last night, she is 6 weeks old, so still tiny and I can't beleive we can't give her a name, more to the point we argue over names, so I think Ginger or Gingee will stay for now although partner is determined to stand at the porch and yell GING-AHH :oops:

I have a ginger kitten (female) who has no name, can you help? Looking for some-thing a tad unsual.

Hello, from a local

Yeah I never thought of that.

Not sure just yet haven't got around to measuring it. I think about 12-15

I Dont Know BUT THEY ARE AWESOME!

Also does any-one have a smaller heater that would fit in there better they would like to sell?

It is a 13b Housing with a FISH TANK! Polished and looks fantastic on my mantel piece! Made for me by a guy in Aussie. Currently housing 3 guppys, it is bigger than appears before some-one goes on about the "leg room" or "fin room" to be exact.

Haha I am on first name basis at my LFS and am nearly there weekly (- AYE CHRIS!!!!) I would take a day off to go "fish browsing" but ive taken 3 days off cause im crook with the flu (maybe I passed it to the fish and died from a bad dose of influenza? - :roll: ) Like Jude said, it could have been any-thing - maybe even my own? To clear it up all fish brought were from "fishkeepers" and not a pet shop. But I brought two lots of fish, both are scaleless (in my opinion are more prone to infections) Like you guys say, it could have been any-thing BUT whitespot was visable. Thanks for the heads up guys and gals

I love the rocks

Several times - dang! I know ill move on and get back in to it, but for the present im pretty peeved! I wouldn't have cared if it was a guppy or four, but my pride and joys! - The big ones even ate out your hand - until I got squirmish and would pull away.
