Puffer fish are 1 of the animals that can ingest and store the poison, there are others.

This is in regards to live rock, no-one mentioned coral :roll:
-
Half of the poor things binned after the show probably, and we nash our teeth over bringing 12 moorish idols into the country!!

Yeah, first prize for a staged tank, that if real, would be half dead within weeks as the corals fought each other to death.
-
I find that very hard to believe, who are they????

I see you've never clipped a dog Ira, i clip my schnauser 3-4 times a year. I use golden oyster clippers, one of the best and around $600 a set. The blades last 3-4 clips before needing resharpening and overheat if not allowed to cool during the cut. If you use people clippers, any people clippers, they just stop dead as soon as you put them near his coat, never assume a dogs coat is "just like humans".

Missing a bit, interesting to know what implied swearing is, not surprised :roll: Got whiteband disease Craig, lost all the sps, but tank is recovering well, will try an acro in a month or 2, slowly building a nice zoo collection while i'm waiting - something you'd appreciate "zoo man"
-
as in a disease, but thats reefing, and tank is slowly recovering.
-
Yes, from a frag or coral carrying the bug.
-
yeah, ok, but a rsm??
-
73 pages on a rsm, :-? :roll: :lol:

Tank doesn't quite look like that anymore, It contacted a disease, that affects sps, and my tank was 95% sps, it was hit hard and all were lost. Clams, softies, zoos, fish, etc all unaffected. tank now in recovery mode, will not add any sps for 6 months or so.

Will be fine and price good, just make sure it has Automatic temp correction, ATC.

yes puffers have teeth, in fact you have to make sure the eat enough snail shells etc to wear them down, otherwise they just keep growing.

no, nz is one of a few countries that have banned the importing of live rock. All coral rock has to be dried and dead before coming into the country. It becomes live (a term that really means matured with bacteria/, as opposed to covered in incidential organisms) by being in someones tank (or the ocean ) for a period to allow the rock to population with various bacterias.
