fishandchips Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 Hey everyone, Due to lack of lfs in Dunedin and the fact i have never seen a FX5 down here I am asking if people could keep an eye out for prices of them at there local. Or if you know already could you let me know. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 they're normally about 650 to 700ish but we got ours on special brand new for $525. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 I know this isn't the answer to your question but HaNs has one for sale in the T & E section for around $390. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 I forgot to mention - the media doesn't come with the fx5 so thats an extra $50 - $100 depending on what you buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32GOTMLK Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 i asked animates if they could do a better deal on an fx5 normally 700 and they said they could do 600 but they had themm on sale for 525 a month ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu :) Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Try Hollywood Fish Farm http://www.hollywoodfishfarm.co.nz/ I think their price is cheaper then Animates when Animates don't have them on sale. Stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldogod Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Got mine from hollywood in Albany few months ago for $485, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen2289 Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 hollywoods could do me for $500 and that included the courier fee when i wanted a FX5 i asked round and hollywoods had the best price (i go mine for hutt pets in the end but only because it was on sale for $500 and they were local) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew_W Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 There was a HUGE tank on TM not so long ago, that had an FX5 buy now was less than $600 from memory. Pretty good, came with tons of other stuff you could sold off to off set the cost (including a 600l tank) :lol: Due to our lovely rules, and the number of my official warnings wracking up you'll have to try find it yourself. Edit my bad its actually a "massive ehiem filter ( holds like 20litres keeps the tank crystal )" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
