  1. Might be network issues as my android receives txt fine but is on vodafone
  2. Trying new firewall on windows 7, and it doesn't do the normal pop up's that others do thank you
  3. Is the chat room down, I can't seem to connect..... problem could be on my end though... Edit: Never mind, firewall
  4. Find out how long the poison is active for (2 days/week). Use that time + a few days. from what I said happened to me before, some one said to me the poison most likely got into my tank/s by a dying bug that tainted the water. Could be wrong, but just my opinion from what I've learn't / been told by others. Hope this helps
  5. Amy said the same thing :lol:
  6. Thats awesome all the more reason I want to setup a saltwater tank in the shed, though wouldn't be able to stick anything that awesome in it
  7. 9 at the mo, hoping to have another 6 - 7 breeding / grow out tanks in the next 3 - 4 weeks
  8. If the service is anything like there tech staff I have to deal with, then I would say no... when I get a service order to install a data line for them and it won't work / can't be done I get some really strange / dumb questions which go completely against what I just told them :-? Just my opinion
  9. make sure you really seal the tanks well. Amy and I thought we had, and out of 8 tanks, poison got into 2. Lost about $1000 retail of fish, and of course it was all my favorites :evil: Even though it can be done next time i'll be catching all the fish first and moving them else where while bombing the house
  10. Out last night with a mate in his 4x4. Near the top of the track we were following one of the tires bounced though a grove in the track and when it came back down the ground slid out from under us and we went off the side and rolled 3 or 4 times before a tree stopped us. The 4x4 ended up upside down so getting out was fun. :-? My mate and a few others went back today to check out the damage and see about recovering the 4x4... I can't wait to get photos as what we didn't see last night is the only tree big enough of stopping us was the one we hit, and if we missed it we would have rolled another 40 - 50 meters before a 400 meter straight drop.... Got me thinking how many close calls people have had. Please share if you have experienced a close call (thats if you mind)
  11. Cool. Its still going to be about a month away before I have the money to spend so a lot more looking around to be done
  12. Budget is around $5000. Thanks for all the info so far. That is more so for cars from what I've been told and owned in the pass, but over all that doesn't bother me if it cost a bit more
  13. I'm looking at buying a 4x4 soon to replace my car. I've been told Toyota and Nissan are the best way to go. Now other than low k's, and the normal stuff to look for, is there anything I should keep my eyes out for? Any ideas and thoughts on what to look for? It will be used for both 4x4'n and round town driving
  14. The computer i'm using at the mo is a oldy running windows 2000. 1.3gHz procesor, 512 ddr ram..... sad to say but its all most perfect to run those games :lol:
  15. I have TFTD and in the middle of it, just after Apoc cause my copy was stolen about 5 - 6 years ago and would like to play that next
  16. I'm looking for an old game called X-Com Apocalypse. Would any one have a copy, or know any one with one that they would sell? Any help would be great
  17. When adding a new oscar (or any other fish that can be a bit agro) to a tank with a oscar in it, I have found the best method to take your oscar out of the tank and change the tank around (a plus, to swap some of the hidding places / large wood, rocks for other bits of similar size) and then introduce the new oscar/s and the same time as putting your oscar/s back into the tank. I have found this way to work the best, a bit over the top but with a fish like an oscar better to be safe than sorry

    Reefs Reef Tank

    Wow.... thats awesome. thanks for sharing them
  19. Well still haven't saved up enough to build a new computer yet... but I found enough parts to build one that I can at least use to get on the net. (I now know why I saved all my old computers / servers) So its good to be back
  20. Well i'm at a computer cafe as my other computer blew up :-? (yes, made loud bang) a week ago. :roll: So bye for a little as I'll be saving to build a new computer, so I can come back and join you all on the net again Have fun and take care every one
  21. What kind of rat poison as some rat poisons are (from what i've been told) deadly one the rat drinks water. If possible could you make the rat throw up? that would help get any poison out of its gut

    Tame pleco

    Cool, i'm trying to teach my oscars to let me pat them at the moment, not there yet but getting better

    Tame pleco

    I moved the last of the fish over to the main tank tonight and completely forgot how easy to handle my redspot plec is. Its a great feeling, having a fish that doesn't mind you carefully just picking them up out of the water from there tank to put them in a bucket, then having the same ease getting them out of the bucket and putting them back in a tank. Any one had a fish like this?

    NZ Shrimp

    I was at the rock pools today getting some shrimp and found out once I got home that one was holding eggs. Any one know how long she will hold them before they hatch?
