Lucid Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Hi All, I am going to be in auckland Monday - Wed nights next week and the week following for work. I am staying at the carlton hotel and will be at a grafton road location during the day. If anyone wants to meetup while i'm up that way, either post here or send me a pm or email, I will have very limited travel options. If not I have a couple of good books as back up and and if I get really keen there is also the hotel gym and pool to keep me occupied.

livebearer_breeder Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 setup a temporary tank while ur up there, so you can collect fish and then bring them back with you. Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livebearer_breeder Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 we "fink" alike then, Jody, what we should do is get som1 with a van, get 7 ppl, divide the cost of petrol between us and do a trip round the lfs, with a temporary setup in the boot, i have a battery powered pump, to run a filter, and air con can keep the temp at about 20-22c, so thats sweet, and i can bring along a whole tone of livefood to pack the tank with, and a spare bucket of water, for a water change and ill bring my camera, and document us, all slowly pulling up to a LFS, every1 jumping out quickly, runnning into the store yeling and screaming, raiding it of its fish, then jumpin in the car again and sooming off. lol Shae Thinking out loud.

Alan Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 Good idea pooling Shae BUT Don't need a setup tho all you need is the poly boxes and a couple of good pens. Names of the owners on the bags. You don't feed them in transit either, the pollution in a confined area will bowl them. Also get the LFS to pack the bigger fish as singles per bag, stops fight damage. There is a J shop in 3 Kings that if you ask, they will also use oxygen in the bages for you.

livebearer_breeder Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 well we have a plan then!! Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucid Posted April 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 I'm guessing tha no-one wants a visitor then, looks like it's the gym and and a good book for me then. Wok, I need to hear from you before 9pm tonite, as to whether or not you can pick up the dahpnia this week, otherwise i'm not bringing it on the off chance you'll turn up and we can organise something for the following week.

Caryl Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 Our club does day and overnight trips to ChCh to get fish and stuff. We all go in our vehicle (seats 7) and take our own polystyrene containers so everyone knows whose is whose. No pumps etc and it is a 4.5 hour trip home at least. All chip in for fuel costs.
