  1. I just on to the ACT forums for the first time in years, and the first person I see posting is Rosco... Good to hear you are still around my friend! :)

      Hey hey col.

      Sorry i missed the message (stupid phone).i just stalk around here these days as i am all but fishless. Laurie and i did a Sydney run last month door old times sake i think it was our second for the year the other one was in feb.

      Both trips we had to renew membership lol. All my gear has either been sold off or borgalious has it. kids chew up most of my time these days. my little bloke had 6 hours of soccer training this weekend plus a swimming lesson so there is the weekend gone. i do more fishing with the lad than fish keeping these days. 

      What's shaking with you? 

      Cheers

      Wow! Fishless!!!

      Me? I've finally got my girlfriend living with me, and her 9 yr old. I'm 100% fishless and have been for a long while.

      I'm into firearms more these days. Am a certified firearms instructor and am starting my own training and firearms related business. I also make blacksmith and do custom knives - amount other things. I'm always building and have projects on.

       

      I haven't spoken to the Borg for years... 

      I'll probably be a dad in the next two years and then things get really interesting. LOL

      Wow how things have moved on.

      I am heavily involved with the belwest soccer club these days in between working web work, coaching and committee it doesn't leave time for much else.  My little bloke is now 11 so i am trying to teach him the art of fishing and patience but with his xbox attention span it is challenging. 

      The borg hasn't changed. He is always trying to find his next get rich scheme.

       You will know your alive once the pile of nappies is around your ears :lol3:. Thankfully with an 11 year old and a14 year old hopefully the next person in nappies will be me lol. 

      Cheers

  2. Metro doesn't stay in the water column very long so it next to useless if they are not eating. You can ramp up the Epsom salts slowly as they have a good tolerance to it. if you do it slowly I add a tablespoons per 20 litres a day for 3 to 5 days and candoes help. What you should be careful of is bring them down slowly (i.e. don't do massive water all at once). It will only raise the general hardness not the carbonate hardness. If you can get hold of clout or tetra parasite clear (it used to be Jungle labs parasite clear) it is good stuff as well. Best of luck it is a bugger of thing to stop. cheers
