Peter

Thanks for that Warren, look forward to meeting you. I will pop into Papamoa Plaza this afternoon and ask them to put up a notice, thanks for the advice Alan and Caryl. Cheers Peter.

Today I have put up notices in Fish Shops around Tauranga and the Mount asking fellow aquarist's to contact me if they are interested in forming/joining an aquarists society to cover Tauranga and the Western Bay of Plenty. Keith Watts at Pets and Things is giving a 10% discount to all society members. So if you are interested or know of someone who would be don't hesitate to contact me either by personal message or telephone 07 575 6517. Cheers, Peter Cook. 8) PS Don't forget that Sunblock.

Thanks for that Robert.

Where is the name "Pigeon Blood" derived from?

Please could someone tell me were I could obtain White Worms and Microworms so that I can start my own colonies. Cheers :roll:

Alan and Caryl I had a feeling you would say that :lol: I will write up an advert and put it around the local fish shops (not Sanfords), see if we can get something going. How does one join the FNZAS and are there any upcoming events. Alan please let me know when your next meeting will be and I will try and get there.

Hi my name is Peter, I am an expat Pom, I used to keep fish in the UK 10+ years ago. I have just set up my first NZ aquarium and stocked it with about a dozen or so Black Neons, three 3 line Cory's and 6 Discus, two of the discus paired off and spawned within 8 hours of being introduced, exciting stuff. Sadly the other discus thought it was a free kai and ate the eggs. It looks like tank number two will soon be on its way. Anyway what I would like to know is there an Aquarists Society in the Tauranga/BOP region and if the answer is yes were do you meet, if the answer is no then would anybody like to start one? Let me know.
