Once again, a big thanks to Oliver & Krystal from Aquotix for the awesome tanks and delivery! biggrin.gif

Can't wait to start filling the tanks!

Oh... and here's my new little helper. "Pepsi" is only about 5 weeks old and is 1 of 2 pups that was born in mid May:

Yeah, they're 4x18x18s. They'll each have a different colony of Lethrinops. My quest for a dedicated Lethrinops rack has been nearly fullfilled! smile.gif

Thanks for the offer Angelo, I'll keep it in mind! smile.gif

Nick, Pepsi is a male chihuahua. Both parents are chilhuahuas. No idea where he got the scruffy hair from coz both parents have smooth hair. lol
His sister looks similar but instead of bits of white, she has tan markings. Like a super mini rotty. ha! biggrin.gif

LOL! Was only joking about the Ottos mate. When you get back to work will be fine. I've got heaps of sponges filters to use in the meantime (thanks again Krystal! tongue.gif)

Hi folks

I spent 5 hours today setting up the new Lethrinops rack. Moved all their water from their old tanks using buckets etc.. Man, talk about hard labour!
Also managed to find some time to drop by Vebas to grab some 4ft lights that you see on the racks. Quite good for the price. Thanks Pacco!

Anyways here's the result so far:

Top left is the colony of Red Capuz, Bottom Left is the colony of Yellow Collars, Top Right is empty till tomorrow when I'll be getting a colony of Lethrinus, Bottom Right is a colony of Longipinnis.


I couldn't have achieved my Lethrinops rack without the help of Team Aquotix (Krystal & Oliver), Midland Pets (Az), Vebas (Pacco), and a great bloke who made the racks!! Thanks heaps guys!!! biggrin.gif

Will post pics of the Lethrinus when they've settled in! smile.gif

P.S: Excuse the bad photo shots. NEVER buy a SONY "point & pray" camera!

Cheers!
Kevin
