Ismart120 Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Lol, fishing keeping obviously attracts certain types of people... I'm starting my fresh water paper next semester, gonna ace it - I've had enough practice with a lot of what is covered :slfg: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirt Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Has anyone ever stayed in a hostel? Are you allowed to have fish tanks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ismart120 Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Has anyone ever stayed in a hostel? Are you allowed to have fish tanks? How long would you be looking at staying at one? I'd be surprised if they did to be honest though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirt Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Probaly a year and then go flatting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
repto Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Has anyone ever stayed in a hostel? Are you allowed to have fish tanks? Most hostel rooms are the size of fish tanks?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ismart120 Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 I know some apartment places don't allow fish tanks so I'd expect something similar and to that but hope for the best? Like repto said, space would be your main issue though How big is your tank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishie123 Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 If you owned the apartment, then you would be able to. But as far as I searched, majority of the apartment that are renting wont allow pets. Especially houses for rent. "BUT" maybe they are referring to cats and dogs? Maybe giving the owner a call?

Squirt Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Haha only 15 at the moment. Just wondering what my turtles going to do when I'm at uni :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Auckland doing ecology as well :slfg: I am first year though, but I prefer the marine/freshwater and behaviour side rather than evolution. I'm in second year ecology. 206 is awesome, the field trips fill up really fast, pureora in 4 mins. 209 sucks, it's stats.1.2mx.38mx.45m probably too big, a .6 x .30 x .45 is probably the limit.

Ismart120 Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 My girlfriend has a 3 foot cichlid tank in her apartment, but the body corp there is really good and also allows birds, the ones that I looked at however weren't so understanding. lol. 'Pets' is a term that depends on the people you take to - decorative center piece is what I'd call a tank, if it got me in an apartment with a tank. 209 is rubbish, my least favourite paper so far in my degree, however, doing 309 next semester so that could change quite soon.

(shudder) Be very careful because the Body Corp's (or your) insurance may not cover damage done if the tank breaks. If water is to go to floors below your apartment and cause damage you would be liable for the cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ismart120 Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Yeah, so far so good but I'll double check - having said that its gone through a number of major earthquakes in the cbd and hasn't gone over, when whole buildings on either side have, go the juwel tanks lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah. Which paper is 206? 1st year is average since heaps of them are core papers but the next couple of years the options really open up.

Most apartment complexes have a "body corporate" which limit what pets etc you can have. It make no difference if you own the apartment or not.
