Hey

I have been to Erskine Pets lots of time. The owner is very nice and help full.

I like the fact that he has 3 maybe 4 galahs out the front that are not for sale, shows he isn't just in it for the money.

Has a great display tank and decent range of fish.

Make sure you check out the the Sponsors of this page also http://www.perthcich.../sponsors.phtml

I go to Danny and Michelle's in erskine, they are all nice and willing to give you the time and help with any info you need.
I have taken quite a few fish to them to sell them, or i do a swap for something i am looking for, they do like to buy from local breeders, in fact i have just dropped of some red zebra and mollies to him tonight.
good luck with your tanks.

regards

Welcome Mot,

I think I've got cornea damage, very bright.
Only joking, good to see another Mandurah resident.
Seems like lots of hiding spots etc. Good luck with the tank, let me know if you want some real fresh water fish(cichlids) to put in there.
I can't wait to see 'the real marine'.

cheers

Haha, the misses is a studing Marine Biology at Uni so it was a present for her and therefore she got to decorate it.

Where abouts you shop down this way mate?

I have got rock breathing in my marine tank at the moment so its not much to look at.

Thanks for the comments thou

Try to spread some custom around town, but Erskine is best.
City Farmers have some nice, friendly fellow hobbyist staff and can order in some interesting fish.
Pantons are good for tetras,etc and make great stands to order for reasonable price(well use to anyway).

But saying that most of my favourite fish come from other members/sponsors on here, it is a great site with lots of friendly, helpful people, and lots of great fish come available. We are very lucky to have this community.

I see Pet Stock are re-doing the fish room, all tank dividers removed to allow for bigger tanks and better care/quality of fish, should be interesting.

all the best

cheers

Nice tank mate I loved the girlfriend disclaimer.

Just jokes.

how is the rock settling in.

Yeah I was in Petstock in the weekend, they are trying out a new water cleanser. I got some off him for my freshwater tank and it is doing wonders. I really thought it wouldnt work but it is doing really well. He is putting it in his tank and seeing how it goes.
Petstock is thinking of geting some marine in too, will be interesting...
