lol yea i wish!! ,nah going marine soon so need to start getting equipment n things, you know the tank in our lounge? well it will be moved against the wall and plumbed through to the sump in the dining type room on the other side.

thanks ill check them out,hmmm shiping now comes into mind if they do have some :lol:

thanks chimera,yea rang them all ready lol

does anyone kno where i could get a large diameter piece of acrylic pipe? it needs to be at least 15mm thick,and a diameter of mabye 250mm or so. Im hoping that i will be able to build a skimmer,but cant find anywhere that sells pipe big enough :-? cheers Tim

now thatd be a waste of time lol :lol: but by all means go for it,as the others say just keep it wet jude,and youl be sweet! Tim

yup and me ,they seem to grow in the most foul disgusting buckets of water,as i belive they feed on decaying plant matter ect..leaves you say,the bucket i have them most in gets heaps falling into it.,and its loaded with them sweetas for you ,a great live food to feed ur hungry fish!!

hmmm :lol: howsabout u do some trials for us brian ,yes and go home and do hours of realy exciting maintance on ur tank,just for kicks

awsome reef!,very cool indeed

yea i can reach 600mm ok,plus theres the father who is also a keen fishie person(with longer arms) :lol:

all very interesting ,looks like 6oo is the best bet thenand then +50mm to the top of the glass. lol yea have allways thought of that :lol:, but then you here about deadly hairballs!! ,and think again thanks for the suggestions an info ppl!! Tim

yea was thinkging the same thing... cheers inter

yea but tha fish gotta eat ,and the blackberrys need to stop being eaten :lol:

well the fotprint of the hopefully new reef tank to be is 1790mm x 530 mm,just a query as to what height it should be ? what height do most of all you reefers out there have? curently the height we have on the old tank is 780mm,but i very anoying to clean and maintain,and light penetration is an issue. was thinking mabye 650mm to the water level..... what do you all think? :-?

i seem to have a huge amount of young little stick insects munching my blackberry plants :evil: ,but on the brighter side,can i feed these lil problems to my fish? has anyone else tried these as a food source,and failed or succeded? would they contain toxins mabye?:-? Tim

good find wasp,quite interesting read!

alot of fish will eat them,but yea they will survive quite happily if they are free from predators
