November 28, 200619 yr comment_133061 Anyways, we're considering moving to Tauranga, if we do I'll be selling up a heap of stuff. Start up again mid next year. Who knows, just keeping options open at the moment. Yes move to tauranga, you know you want too... muahahaha :lol: Report
November 29, 200619 yr comment_133089 so evil you're in te puke? never noticed :oops: was there last weekend (or rather stayed at papamoa beach and took a drive out to te puke and pukehina - very nice!) papamoa is taking off unbelievably fast, i feel the need for a lifestyle change,... either that or buy a land bank for future retirement Report
November 29, 200619 yr comment_133093 Yer im in Te Puke chim. would be good to have an experienced reefer on here closer to me So i can nag them for advice and frags :lol: Well done puttputt, join the 1000 Club!!! :lol: Report
November 29, 200619 yr comment_133099 Chim, You should come to Kerikeri I reckon it is NZ's fastest growing town - something like 18% growth I think I read somewhere. And we are getting a absolute explosion in reefkeeping up here. The day that Puttputt moves up it will have increased by 100% (in a day ) Extrordinary! Need to open a fish shop soon - any takers? Jetski, how about a KK branch! :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol: Puttputt, congrats on the 1000 club Report
November 29, 200619 yr comment_133104 experienced reefer pfft. hardly. "experimental reefer" is a better term theres a "katikati" down in bop skippy, thats as close as i'll be to kerikeri 8) Report
November 29, 200619 yr comment_133110 ok, 1000 posts hooray for me, really hoped I could start my "puttputts upgrade" on the 1000th post but no one has bought my house yet. Katikatis Nice Chim, but not a patch on Kerikeri Report
November 29, 200619 yr comment_133112 When did you last check out your rodi? and whats coming out of it. Checked your fuge and stock in the fuge? Mate your a COASTY and you know every one that moves away always come back but tauranga is a good spot better shout you beers this weekend and remind you why the coast is best 8) Report
November 29, 200619 yr comment_133167 Stupid question but are there any hose clips in your tank? Or copper as sugested by Keven? Have you tested for metal? Sounds like you are poisioning the water with your setup? Just a thought. Report
November 29, 200619 yr comment_133200 Have you tested for metal? no dont have kits for it. but yeah, could be it. nothing i can see that's metallic though. will have to have another looksee. thing is, nothing has changed, only thing would be if something fell into the tank that i didnt notice. need to turn everything upside down (including rocks) Report
November 30, 200619 yr comment_133292 maybe dropped something during light upgrade? potentially, a screw? who knows. as i say, whole tank needs tipping upside down to check. if i move, i'll be selling everything except skimmer, pumps, lighting and reactor (and probably keep some plumbing!). so, fish, rock, corals (what's left :lol: ), display tank (well, thats your shaneo if I do), streams, refugium tank etc will be up for sale. Report
November 30, 200619 yr comment_133300 Hook me up wif sum rock!!! :lol: :lol: You know you want to move to tauranga chimera, your just dreading the thought of moving.. See, im a mind reader.... Do it chimera.... Doooo iiiiittt.... :lol: Nah but seriously, if you do end up selling up, and its after early next year, then ill be keen on rock and corals ok?!?! Report
November 30, 200619 yr comment_133302 What would you replace the streams with? newer streams. if we move, we would buy land and build. that way i can get just the tank i want and all the other goodies with it. not giving up pumps and skimmer coz i got for good price and they kick arse no worries on rock and corals Report
November 30, 200619 yr comment_133304 Nah, ditch the streams and have a massive closed loop system, that would be coooool Report
November 30, 200619 yr comment_133308 oh and u got kids aye chim? Have they visited the 'tank interogation room' lately?? Report
November 30, 200619 yr comment_133360 I meant, have you interogated them about whats going on with the tank?!?! :lol: Report
November 30, 200619 yr comment_133383 why would you not sell them via trademe so as to maximise your value, unless it was as a favour for someone who has helped you in the past...... Report
