  2. hi guys ive decided 2 change my frog tank around a bit but im having a hard time deciding wat to do with it . i was going to make an incredibly complex polystyrene structure but it sounds like too much work and i cant garentee it would look the way i want it to. also i would like to keep it simpler so if i have to catch the frogs i can do so easy without damaging stuff. i would like to keep the upright piece of driftwood in this photo , it has a bromeliad growing on it also i want to keep the vine in there. i have another big piece of driftwood out of this tank its the 1 on the left this tank is 3 ft long im thinking i could do something with the two bits of driftwood . however its gets harder now ane 1 got aneideas on how to use live plants in there(like baby house plants ) without using a divider ( as i want to keep as much of the water down below free for the axies) ane suggestions much apprieated

  5. im a smoker i still try to give up. i have heard of numerous attempts to get around the law i know of a few workplaces(note 99 percent of clients, visitors and workers here smoked) and small organisations that registered as maraes to get around this law. another place i know knocked a wall down (a building is only classified as a building under this act if it has 3 or more walls and a roof ) so immagine an open bayed huge shed built with stell i beams they pulled some iron off the end (which wasnt used anyway) and got around it

    DIY C02

    if u use silicone airline drill a hole in the top of the lid with a drill bit that just fits inside the tubing without having to force it on there 2 much (also leave the blue plastic bit under the lid and drill thru this) cut the end of the airline on a massive angle and poke the fine end thru then pull it thru with pliers . this makes a nice neat gas tight seal better and easier than using silicone
  18. cool thats awesome i will leave the big 1 out and the other 2 under the water mite have 2 get some more flourish XL (i havent used it in months) that should get it going
