  1. With sand do you have to check for pH neutrality ie vinegar test or is that only for rocks? In Christchurch Urban Landscaping Supplies sell a few different sands including a coarse black one which is very popular but as mentioned above, does need a LOT of washing.

    Also I lol'd at the sand in Urethra stream ;)

  2. Is anyone here an admin on Reefkeepers who can help me get set up over there please? LA has set up an account for me but obviously set the emailaddress to his instead of mine because I can't reset my password or login or anything >.<

    Desperate to see all the beautiful reef tanks!!!

  3. Welcome :wave:

    Hi!! :D

    Welcome! :wave: Thats quite a collection you have!

    Thank you *takes a bow*

    The 4 dwarf puffers get along alright together?

    Yep totally fine. The ratio is 1:1 unfortunately, I wanted 1 male, 3 females but one of the girls turned out to be a juvie male! But hes one of my favourites so I can't quite bring myself to get rid of him especially when they get along fine!

  4. Hi all,

    I joined last weekend but thought I should introduce myself and took a while to get round to gathering the pics I wanted to show off :)

    I'm Rachel, been keeping fish since late last year and the obsession is very strong! My husband and I have been gathering tanks like there's no tomorrow but I know you can relate :)

    My tanks are listed in my sig (don't worry I will reduce it soon ;) )

    At the moment I'm really enjoying my cichlids and our marine tank has just received its first frag. I also really love my plants.

    Long term dreams include owning a mantis shrimp (!) and creating a locals coldie marine tank :f77: I'd also really like a frog fish xD

    I like fish that are quite aggressive it seems which is why we end up with so many tanks. I had a community tank of guppies and neons but I got bored! :sml1:

    So hi!

    Pics:

    My 70L planted tank for cichlid growouts:

  5. Hi there. :) My name is Amelia and I am new here.

    I have been keeping tropical fish for 2 years now. I currently have a 240l planted community and a 450l CA/SA Cichlid tank. Nice to meet you all!

    Hi Amelia :P

  6. This is why marine tanks are so interesting to me, all sorts of weird and wonderful creepy crawlies come out of the woodwork! (Or should that be rockwork?)

  7. When i hAd mine, i only collected small amounts so i need to get more. Try find buzzys coldwater thread and look at his sponge garden with nudis

    Thanks, I will have a hunt around and try to find it! :D
