Octopus
Neat, would like a small one, but they have to be entertained and like to escape. I've read that they don't like Velcro, so you can keep them in with it'

Tragedy at 2am... :(
Another thing that can be used underneath is a layer of neoprene. And the reason I would guess that the glass popped at the corner is because of the added stresses from when they bend the glass.

Electrical Safety Question
Glass is an insulator, and the electronics inside are fairly simple, so I wouldn't worry about shorts. But if it starts showing fault I would stop using it.

500 ltr plywood tank project
What about using a float switch to turn the pump off when the water level is too low?

Local marine build
Heat to 22 degrees, then once it's almost cycled, start turning the temp down by a degree every couple days. You're still going to need a fairly stable temp around 17 degrees for winter and 20 for summer.

Local marine build
Why don't you heat the tank while it cycles?

undergravel filters
It's old tech now, with filters being far better at the job.

New Seahorse tank
Could use Feather Caulerpa, (which I'm considering getting some if I can) as a macro algae for the sea horses to grip to.

NSW Replacement
You replace evaporated water with fresh/pure water. because when the water evaporates, it leaves everything else behind. You will have to add top up water often, as the amount that evaporates is quite a lot more than a fresh water tank. calculating how much water to replace is probably bloody difficult, it's better to add a mark on the outside of the tank to let you know where the water height should be for when you replace the evaporated water. Also, NSW is higher in salinity ~40ppt, so you will have to dilute it with RO/DI water to get to ~35ppt. Used a refractometer to measure this.

If it's sold in NZ it has to work in NZ, so those will be 230V~240V

I may have a little addiction problem...
Maybe you should store the planes in a more space efficient manner, like hang them from the ceiling.

Just a little shadow...
It's where we fool foreigners into thinking gardens are illegal. Deep fried spiders, Fryders, are a delicacy. The Bucket fountain is the pilgrimage everyone must make, and Moa are still alive.

diy acrylic tank
Nothing will stick to Acrylic, the only thing is proper acrylic cement. Silicon is ok as long as there is pretty much no load on the joint, such as holding something in place. But if you want it to hold a load like a fishtank, expect failure.

Large clear jar or bottle?
I don't think that meets my requirements

Large clear jar or bottle?
Totally clear, so I can see the fan worm and pods in it.
