  1. and you wouldn't dare call her a pest either (at least not in her hearing)
  2. If you hover your mouse over them it tells you what most of them are The fish is a deaf fish, not a dead fish apparently :roll:
  3. Thank you all. If anyone has anything further to add it would be appreciated. I think you are on the right (cowshed) track :thup:
  4. This is apparently a kiwi saying when asked "Where are you going?" It supposedly comes from a TV advert. Can anyone remember the ad and what it was for? I suspect it was Murray Ball and Dog and it is ringing a bell but I can't remember what the ad was selling. Anyone remember? You will have to be as old, or older than me I suspect :sage:
  5. I had a friend who did the same. She used a pedestal sink (with taps) over the bath so the sink overflowed into the bath.
  6. I'm sure they can. That doesn't mean they will be accepted into the country they were shipped to
  7. I thought marines needed MH lights and they were expensive to run?
  8. Remind Dena to take some Girl Guide biscuits!
  9. The same thing happened to one of my common BNs too. Seemed happy enough but got fatter and fatter. No other fish were affected.
  10. You have to factor in the ongoing running costs too which are much higher for marine than freshwater :roll:
  11. Some clubs have their own library of fish books members can borrow
  12. ... and a big grin on his face :lol: The two of them will have already built a huge pond up there too :roll:
  13. It is with great sadness I have learned of the death of another FNZAS Life Member, Eddie Bowen. Eddie used to belong to the Marlborough Aquarium Club before I was born! An enthusiastic conference attendee for many years, conferences won't be the same without him On the bus trips, our other recently late LM, John Eastwood, would always buy Eddie the biggest ice cream in a cone he could get as he knew Eddie loved ice cream and always enjoyed the treat very much. For many years now Eddie has resided in Christchurch, the past few years in St Nicholas' Hospital, after a stroke. He had another stroke last week and did not recover. Our condolences go to his family at this time. His death notice was in today's Press and will be in tomorrow's as well with funeral details. Any local club members able to attend, please do so.
  14. A friend was woken in the night by a consistent bang bang bang sound. When she investigated she found the cat, with a large rat in its mouth, trying to get through the catflap. The rat was too wide and the noise was the sound of the rat hitting the door as the cat tried repeatedly to come inside with its dinner. :sick:
  15. I have heard oil works well. Does it slowly slide down the glass over time?
  16. No need to waste money if you already have a tank up and running. The above suggestions are all easy - split existing media or run new filter on old tank for a month.
  17. I would think that anyone who could breed rummys would be doing so in very large numbers and supplying shops. If so, they would not undercut those places by selling cheaper to hobbyists. Having said that, I believe there is a breeder in ChCh known for breeding many species, rummys are one of them.
  18. What a difference! No wonder people have trouble identifying these fish :roll:
  19. He might be a bit busy at the moment
  20. I can't even use a calculator. That is what Grant is for (among other things) 4th grade math is beyond me :dunno:
  21. Good to see you are merely changing direction and not giving up
