  1. ...well almost Its currently got two canisters on it until i get the sump sorted out. And then it wont have all the heaters etc in it Back still needs painted. has 2 inch poly on back,sides and front at night. Any comments or ideas welcome here is a heap of pics of the tank and fish:
  2. What happens when too much CO2 builds up? does it pull the bottle to the surface more or does it escape in big bubbles out the end.
  3. Its great So does anyone know what they are? :-?
  4. Looks nice and clean, can both turts fit out of the water at the same time to bask?
  5. Hard to see. The white ones also jump like grasshoppers when you touch them, other than that they just crawl around annoying me
  6. I have had a box full of White worms growing for the last 2 months now and i have heaps But there are a few extra critters making themselves at home I have tried to take the best photos i could. There are little long whit bugs about 3mm at the longest and small round tan coloured bugs that are kind of ladybug shaped but only 1mm in size. And the white ones are multiplying rapidly! All the worms seemed to be on the surface of the peat eating before the bugs arrived but now they stay below the surface and only come up to eat. Are these bad bugs or are they normal? If so, how do i get rid of them without harming the worms? photo through the glass photo through the glass photo on the glass photo on the glass photo on the glass photo on the glass I'll try to get a photo of the tan coloured ones now
  7. Gravel vac and water change the day after treatment.
  8. http://www.stuff.co.nz/oddstuff/3421145/Ghosts-auction-winner-seeking-suggestions So what do you think should happen to the bottled ghosts that were auctioned off on Trade Me recently? they went for $2,830.00 I think they should be put to rest using the correct protocols. anyone else care to comment?
  9. Usually people will write in texting format because it is a habit from texting so much and it is generally quicker for them to write like this if they aren't used to using a keyboard. I used to be like this until i got a job that involved using a keyboard everyday and Ive sort of grown out of it now. on the odd occasion i unintentionally write word short, not because its cool :lol:
  10. We always killed em with petrol as kids but i reckon the powder is best way today. some even mix a lil with jam and the wasps take it into the nest for more to eat and DIE DIE DIE :lol:
  11. Legally you will need a consent but shouldn't cost more than 10G from start to finish. (just my guess) :roll: Will need to check existing flooring joists to see if they are load bearing or not, there are ways around it with installing beams to carry the lead etc. also ceiling diaphragms can be a problem causing you to need more bracing elsewhere if you were to cut a gap for the stairwell. i.e more bracing on the walls etc.
  12. exactly, its the only best way! I feel like some now oh well, better go get some then. 'trotts off to the olds', "Daaaaaaaaad... Got any crays in the freezer?". mmmmmm yum, yes he does
  13. We never ate the bigger crays, we just threw the bigger ones back. IMO the bigger ones don't taste as nice as the smaller ones. just above legal is yummy
  14. Wouldn't this look sweet in your tank...? I gotta get me some. I have to! http://www.planetcatfish.com/images/full/loricariidae/hemiancistrus/sp(l128)/21.jpg
