  1. Just bought it now. NZ$178 including postage. Don't mind spending a few extra bucks on something decent. Thanks again.
  2. Sweet as. Thanks Godly3vil I'm going to order one now. Cheers
  3. Hi, just wondering if anyone has one of these and if they are any good? Bloke in auckland retailing these for $150, which seems reasonable but hoping it's not garbage. Thanks
  4. Thanks Morcs, Good idea with Takapuna. I know it's a bit rough with surt, but would it not just be sand that would settle out or do you think there are other nasties lurking in the mix? Thanks
  5. By the way, I read an article about making shapes out of calcium cement and dumping them in the sea for a couple of months. Would this be anywhere near live rock?
  6. Ah thanks for that reply. It makes sense now. I have read a bit about rocks that are cured, but never really live. I suppose there aren't too many reefs around the hauraki to go looking for bits that have fallen off? Anyone want some if I can go diving and find any?? lol Edit>>> I see you're in Hutt, so won't know about the Hauraki lol..
  7. Hi guys, one more question. I have a 190L tank and am about to set it up. I was going to go to Muriwai to get a load of seawater for it. Is this a bad idea? Thanks
  8. Hi, I'm setting up my tank and I asked a retailer about live rock and he said you can't buy it in NZ. He then offered me some other rock. My question is, what's the point in buying rock from a NZ retailer that isn't live, can't I just go to the beach and pick up a stone from there for cheaper???? I have read all about live and dead rocks but don't get what the score in NZ is. Any answers appreciated as I'm keen to get my system up and running. Thanks
  9. Can you use live rock with Sea horses?
  10. Hi All, I'm brand new to all this and have decided to set up a salt water aquarium. I have been very disappointed with the retailers level of assistance so thank God for this forum. I bought a 190L freshwater tank and just drilled an overflow hole in the side. I have a small fishtank for a sump and desperately trying to get a skimmer for it. Does anyone know where I can get a cheap skimmer from that would do the job? Thanks Jim
