#95260 Video Of Dovii

Posted by *S*T*A*R*S* on 24 June 2008 - 12:04 PM in Tank Busters, Exotics, Large Predators and Oddballs

Hey all,

I would have to agree with Aaron. i dont keep tankbusters atm because i simply cannot house them properly with sufficet room. they are awsome fish, powerful, magnificant! i think that it is cruel to 'tease' or 'play' with them as such because in there natural habbitat they are not restricted to 6'-10' in an enclosure. in the wild they are free to travel as far or as little as they like, but in an aquarium if they are 'played' then they are being taught that every time you come near that they get to chase something or have a good feed. how then can you just come over to you tank to enjoy the pure grace and power of most tank busters (tems, monocs, etc) without them going spaz when you walk past the tank. also IMO i think that it can be unsafe for you fish, brusing against the glass and also i know poepl that have had sarratoga's, monoc's and a few other species jump out of the tank and knocking through coverglass, because of such behavioral characteristics.. we recently had a sarra try to jup out of a display tank because there was a gap in the coverglass, (he is 100% just so you know he didnt get out).

just so you all know i'm not trying to argue with any of you as i know that most of us have all had many years of fish keeping under thier belts and respect all ppl's opinions, this is simple my thoughts about the issue...

Cheers heaps,

Arron

hey B

im hellglad to hear you'r alright!

Re: dom! yes i perticularly liked the part where he truck slapped him in the face. i have been in a few skaterfights (I LOVE SKATING)and been hit in the face with a skateboard truck and have a permanant lumpon my forehead.
For those of you who dont know, a skateboard truck is almost half a kiilo of solid metal!!!
yeah i agree with the advice tho phill, dont carry weapons as things get way out of hand, but we have all survived a few punch ups!

and den, yes it is great that we as younger generation can afford $600 boards...i have been skating for 5 years and have the recipts to all skate stuff purchased. my tally comes to $1844.75 exacly from only 7 decks!

have to go skate with you and ya mates phillip some time! what parks do you like? or are you more a street skater?

Cheers

#98381 Eoi.... Water Change Equipment!!!

Posted by *S*T*A*R*S* on 25 July 2008 - 08:41 AM in Classifieds


Hey Dazzabozza

just so you all know. they arent for syphoning as such they are for re-filling the tanks. the reason i made them is because a few friends and i have quite a few tanks and standing there with a hose and having to kink it in one hand and having to do things one hannded is a real pain and water getts everywhere. ( this happed to me ) we use one at work (midland pet and Aquaruim) and because of the numerous tanks it helps so much.

im up to 12 tanks now (woooh)

so just to clarify they re-fill tanks and are a great help, espcially to those who have a mumber of tank. )and i know a lot of you do! 8)

Cheers

Arron

nice effort there jonny..

twist mate i might be getting 3 or 4 but still not a 100% (about 95%)

let me know and gett them all sdhipped at the same time maybe?


i have a small thick plastic pool just over 4m in diamiter and 3/4 m high that i am thinking of changing to a cichlid pool.
had a thought that i might buy some keep a male and female and try to breed them.... would be the most waesome thing to spawn!!!

just out of interest do you have sufficient room for when they get older twist??
ive heard (and seen (video)) that they can get to almost 2.5 feet?? magnificant
