Ummmm... Please Explain?

What was it?? Ad is unavailable

Az do you know if they make a underwater case for this?<br />Could be a nice toy for my next year trip

You might be able to find one on EBay but the model is reasonably old. I just gave my 350D to my dad, as I bought my brothers 70D.

It is an excellent camera.

how dare you repeat that "joke" in the same thread MLB......

 ^^^

MLB you're fired!

OH NO   I thought I saw that joke else where! Lol!

Agreed MM, get the fish so YOU can be happy.
The only happy place in my household is right infront of the tank. Everything the wife says after i hit my seat is all a blur.

Note: If you let her choose 'one fish' for the tank, which makes her slightly involved you can then get away with much much more.

"Yes, we need a CO2 system for the tank, as it will make your Blue Ram look even prettier as the plants will help enhance its colours".

 

Dude, you already get a 10% discount @ Vebas.

Oh, and you got some brown on your nose

Yeah I liked Vebas before I became a member. They really do look after you if you're a regular.

Sorry - a bit off-topic, but sort of related.  What are people's thoughts on shops advertising fish they have in stock using photos from the net without declaring the source of the photo?  I've even seen shops using photos of variants we don't even have in Australia.

Short version: No, Shouldn't be done. You should always have your own photos.

I used to work at Signman and the biggest offenders were Massage/Aromatherapy customers wanting signage with nice pictures of massages that they can do.

Trying to take photos of your own customers in the dark at those spas are impossible as well as hard to get approval to take a shot. Normally you needed a model. So they always supplied me images.

Here is one classic that they all loved to use.

Do a general seach on Google and you could find every photo that they use.

The more intellegent ones would purchase their images from a stock photography website instead.

But usaully they were always trying to do everything on th cheap.

Interestingly, I used to have to search for sample images while the customers were sitting next to me.

Never search for 'Facials' with 'safe search turned off' while a customer is sitting next to you.

Oh yeah: About 9 years ago, I got to do Vebas Signage, looking a little tatty now but looked awesome back then. They supplied me great photos for their windows from their own tanks. Thanks Pacco.

That forum post is a 10 years old. Like they said in it, check with fisheries before you go do it, as I think their rules would be different now.

Maybe go have a look at the place they have been harvesting the live rock and look at the impact it has made?

If your trying to save money on liverock then maybe you can't really afford a Marine tank anyway?

I imagine the cost of live rock is due to the weight of sending it around, as well as quality of it.

A fish shop perhaps???

I'm only willing to pay $10 max for 60 fish, k thx bye

you need to use the [ media ] youtube link [ /media ] to embed the video, I believe there is a 'how to' on it too (not mine).

Had a sniff when I took the lid off, and it smelt nice. How weird!

I think you should eat some.

Very nice! Very simple.

To reduce algae issues, only have the lights set to turn on during 6 hours of the day, 10am to 4pm or something, basically only have them on when people see the tank the most often.

I recommend very hardy plants and comunitee fish that are fun and people will like. Clown Fish are great and a big group of Neon Tetras.

Cool vids!

I have a soft spot for our freshwater crays.

My stomach has a soft spot for marron too
