  1. Try soaking them first conch :lol:
  2. They are delicious Caper and come in red, gold and orange. http://www.kumara.co.nz/ "Sucked the kumara" is not to be confused with "a fair suck of the sav"
  3. For those old enough to remember the story As you may be able to tell from the background view, this plant is about 5000ft, 1524m, up (Black Birch).
  4. Nov 2007 Aquarium World has an article about it by billaney
  5. We have a fireban but it doesn't cover gas BBQs
  6. I have never driven into a ditch - it was a creek :lol:
  7. Great pics as usual. Love the half red half green set-up with the plants. Very effective.

    epoxy resin

    I think you will find styrofoam is polystyrene
  9. I'm sure we can organise getting you to Picton, depending on the ferry schedule.
  10. Her cell phone number is not listed in the Year Book
  11. Perhaps the kumara had pesticide on it :lol: Sorry, couldn't resist. Non kiwis are going to be confused :-?
  12. Photograph at night with all curtains closed and room lights off. Have as much light on the tank as possible. Use the flash on the camera but on a slight angle to avoid flashback. Sit the amera on something solid or use a tripod to keep it as still as possible. Remember for every 100 pics you take, about 3 will be good :lol:
  13. Fish also get pale and ragged in old age. Do you know how old they are?
  14. A bubble or celestial eye out? :lol:
  15. People usually answer to the best of their ability and honestly believe they are correct. This is a place for all to give their opinions, both beginners and the more experienced. We never claim everything is right.
  16. Better the lettuce than your plants. They love it
  17. When in doubt, yell and scream abuse so customer will finally drop it (he hopes). Keep going!
  18. But is it still on subject?

    New Tank

    I have only ever used "real" driftwood. As long as it is hard wood and not rotten anywhere it is good. I favour rata and rimu.
  20. If he doesn't seem to be able to dislodge it himself you will need to catch it then try to remove the stone with tweezers or hook it out. :-? It is possible he has swallowed, or tried to, a stone. Is the white looking fluffy? If so it is more liekly to be a major fungal infection in the mouth and this too would cause discomfort.
  21. Have you downloaded Java?
  22. Mine are used for plants. Anyone who has seen my tank knows I have lots of plants too. I use the plain daylight tubes, add no fertiliser or CO2 either, nor do I have fancy substrate.
  23. I only use the common ones. Bright white or Daylight, depending on brand.
