ropata Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 Hello all, Just had to stay what a great site this is, have gotten loads of info. I have been cruising around this site since i got the bug about 4 years ago. In the past i have had several marine tanks, with sea horses, baby paua (aquaculture of course), various anemones, triple fins, hermit crabs, mussels, oysters, kina, starfish and shrimps etc. About a year ago i traded my big back yard in Auckland for a tiny apartment in nth Japan. Convinced the wife to give up a corner of the living room for a small tank and now i am back finding all sorts of strange creatures to put in it. Because i am resticted in tank size i decided i would have a bit of fun building a sump with a home made skimmer and fludizied bed bio filter in it. Now i am on the look out for an octopus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ropata Posted September 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 Yeah yeah, i know, when does a surfer, become a lurker, become a stalker! I meant to post a thousand times, whenever i had a question, but i usually found the answer some where in other posts. So thanks to those guys and girls who provide that wealth of information. About the octopus, i have found them at the market, but unfortunately they are huge, they would just fit into my tank. They are such amazing animals, i so much wanted to take them home, because i knew they were destined for the restaurants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
