  22. Hi I am looking for 15kgs coral sand and 75kgs of silica sand does any one close to Dunedin have any for sale thanks
  23. Hi thanks for your reply it is an Eheim twin feeder 3582 it does say after 6 days feeding it goes into 24 hr pause so if I was to set it for 1 feed per day it will go for 6 days
  24. Hi I have just bought an eheim twin fish feeder have it reasonably sorted but finding the instructions a little difficult to understand i have set it for the times i want to feed so what does it mean by random feeding and how many days will it feed for can someone explain each step for me with a bit more detail thank you
  25. yes the white face heron he has just been again we frightened him off we have 2 small dogs papillons they have scared him before when they are not having a siesta LOL we do have an ornamental heron but he does not seemed to be bothered by it so how deep would you say the water would need to be before he would go in it I am hoping I will only need to put the gut around the shallow end thank you
