lol, can i watch feeding time kietz? :P

id like to see your setup sometime, and get some pointers off you if possible?

thinkin of gettin rid of these overzised goldfish and starting up my tropical as soon as we are in the new house

Edited by craig R33
ME =] i got tropical setup 6 foot XD~~ with some very expensive fishies

I have a nice Octagonal 120lt tank that did have well over $500 worth of marine fish and coral in it, until I bought my dream fish - a Flame Angel (for the bargain price of $200). Unbeknownst to me it had a fungal eye infection when I bought it, which deteriorated over the next 3 weeks, and after $100 of medications and carry-on later, it, and my whole tank of fish/coral was dead.

I chucked the tank and all the gear out in the shed and that was it.

I am actually about to re-do the tank with freshwater tropical - I have a little 40Lt Jebo tank here in my office wiht a few Rainbow Gouramis and half a dozen colourful guppies, which I will chuck in the re-done tank. No more marine for me :P

Craig - unless you are prepared to buy an external canister filter, 2 mechanical internal filters, internal protein skimmer, $200+ of live rock, religiously change at least 20% of water, spend the $10 per week on salt to keep the salt levels up in the tank, spend a minimum of $60 per fish (and up to $200 each for the really good fish) to stock it, then I wouldn't even dream about trying a marine tank. It is a very big and expensive commitment. But they look unbelievable when set up and maintained correctly.

yeah, i know its a bit of work, but they look amazing when looked after....

i didnt realize there was THAT much work though.....

def going tropical though

atm i have 4 goldfish each around 20cm long and fat as all hell (120 ea) and various other cold water colours

but im bored of them, too easy to look after, and not enough variation

if you keen to sell the corner unit, let me know,

lookin after a tropical tank is easy peasy just need a good filter, i bought my fluval fx5 about a year ago and only changed the water every 6 months and fish still happy =D just remember to feed the fishes thats all you need to worry about.

craig buy cichlids if you want bright colours for your tropical setup eg, electric yellow, african peacocks, discus??, i got an Arowana, 2 electric yellows, 2 feather fin cat fish, 6 blood parrots, 2 big plecos, and 2 african peacocks.

thanks keitz, just googled them, nice fish!

ruby, you get round to callin that place?

I call lotsa places every day ... which one did you mean?

Hold that! I just recalled what you're on about. The lads at Gepps Cross said they'd give me a call back on the Saturday (I think), but never heard from them. I'll swing by later on tonite (after my meeting) and nut out a date.

im not a racist person, but i find the young lads of

ethnic background are the worst in that matter.

but what can you do? you cant say anything,.

well you can, but they will prob open up a can of whoop ass and we will be the ones in jail for assult :P

EDIT: shit i thought this was wasteland, soz

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
