I dont think my natives like the chlorine/metals though so i have started using conditioner for them.
My advice buy a conditioner for ponds... way cheaper and does the same job.

I had to empty my pond tank the other day and refill it... Well my Marron decided they didn't like shiny new fresh water and legged it... Didnt get far, my dog was all over it. Had em bailed up. All I could see from the kitchen window was the dog going ape shit at something, then I saw this little blue claw extend out of the grass towards the dog. Walked outside to see all five crawling through the lawn I chucked em back in and they have stayed put.
Was funny as hell to watch the dog freaking out though.

The thing is for me, no one here really wants to show and discuss what they have (There are a few exceptions). A lot of what is discussed here is what is going wrong not what is working well and looks awesome.
I would love to see more of what people are doing and the species they are keeping. Get some good ideas for new projects, etc.
Some of the forums here are pretty bloody quiet considering how many forum members there are and the variety of species we all know are being kept.
There have been a few good write ups and photos in the TB section but again they are few and far between.
I think some of the newer members in the hobby would really benefit from seeing and hearing about some of the great stuff that is happening.

Well when I hit the culvert I busted my wrists and hands, right one was way worse than the left for some reason. I still remember every microsecond of that crash... Kinda happens in slow motion and you never forget it!
With the roundabout I pretty much ate my helmet on the first impact, fractured my eye socket and zygomatic arch (Cheek bone) then smacked the back of my head on something on the second bounce (mabe the curb).
Both accidents were entirely my fault!

Yep... havent had a good experience buying from Chains as I have stated elsewhere recently... Perhaps unlucky... Dunno, doubt it.
Oh and one more thing the whitespot first appeared a few days after I bought a few fish from City Farmers, the first and last time I will ever buy fish there.

There not referred to as shrimp any more, there called MUMS THE WORD.
They are known hence forth as MTW's. This i believe should be endorsed by the PCS Committee.
