  1. 1. Lift dog above fish tank 2. Squeze dog untill dry 3. ???? 4. Profit
  2. I think I would ad a little shading to the rocks to give 'depth', but otherwise cool
  3. If you have a heatpump running on cooling then you shouldn't need a dehumidifier? They are both just a compressor/condensation unit. UV bulb and carbon filter?
  4. Graham, that has been suggested on here before if I unforget correctly
  5. because that was the ye-olden-days, and we have better ways of doing things now :digH:
  6. If you do a large water change >50% use a dechlorinator as the chlorine in tap water can and will kill the new bacteria.
  7. Why not buy a tablet that can be used as a phone then, bigger screen then?
  8. Hi and welcome to the funhouse :happy1:
  9. :smot: The large 400lt one is cooled with a 1/2 hp chiller, a bit of an over kill but does the job well. Up untill this weekend had it at 16deg but have lifted that to 18 deg to try and stop a very bad condensation problem that I've had over the last few weeks with the warm humid air that we have up here in the north island. The ~60 tank is cooled only by a fan and normall sits around 19-20 when the room hits 26-28deg
  10. If I was going to heat a fish room (or in my case cool it for natives) I think I would run a small heatpunp and a desk fan to move air around. Should get more heating per $ that way
  11. No, not my tank, I have black substrate :love: Oh, and worse than a T/A boy I was born a Waihi boy, with all that that entails
  12. Pink did I someone say?
  13. I'll ignore all the fluff about the tadpoles... I caught some bullies about that size last year, I feed my natives beef or chicken heart. For only two that snall I would buy chicken hearts from the pet food section of the supermarket, frezze them then cut off slithers with a sharp knife and dice that.
  14. No, but it is well braced if you were WOWing over the smaller stand that tank footprint.
  15. planted goldfish? That 6*2*2 would make for a nice Giant Kokopu home, with a few bandeds and a score of bullies :digH:
  16. This sounds like you clean the filter quite regularly. They shouldn't need cleaning often, and then not too much - the wool / sponge maybe once a month - 1/2 the filter gravel / ceramic noodles each 6 months :dunno: I hope you get the flow back up to where you want it
  17. Crossing with the wild population, breeding a feral population of Ira-spawn x-breeds :digH:
  18. My waterproof torch that I got for christmas turned out to be not that waterproof and because the LED end is 'sealed' it has taken forever to dry back out
  19. You dont find that many koura too many? Then again I do have many bullies in mine. more or less the same size as yours 1200*600*600 More or less this layout, but the rocks at the right hand end are a bit higher. There are two large polystyrene caves under the rocks that you can just see stand in the water with torch Find a nice transition between pool to run where the water surface is just starting to break up and hold said torch just above the water pointing up stream.
  20. Goldfish are vermin in your pond, all they do is eat your snails, their eggs and their food... :digH:
  21. They are two things I have plenty of down here, and I have figgured out how to spotlight torries :happy2: I'm thinking of building my rock pile up a bit more to make a shellow end like yours, atm mine is only about 10" high but it does have 2 * 5000lph wavemakers above it
  22. at 22 lt you could justabout freeze saltwater ice cubes :digH:
