Brownfish Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Hey Col, while you're at it maybe we should go halvies in some activated carbon: http://www.dola.com.au/onlineauction/Aucti...nCat.asp?ID=188 Should be enough to run your tanks and mine... but only just Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we would be best buying both lots - packaging them in 500 gram zip lock bags and selling them on eBay! We can store everything at your place...

rosco Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I would be slaughtered especially considering I would have to extend my fish room first . I am not surprised that the LFS did not sell them when they were closing down given the price he wanted Hey Col, while you're at it maybe we should go halvies in some activated carbon: http://www.dola.com.au/onlineauction/Aucti...nCat.asp?ID=188 Should be enough to run your tanks and mine... but only just it would end up like that simpson episode when Bart bought the condemed wharehouse for a dollar. which one of you is Milhouse cheers rosco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosco Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 It reminds me a bit of Jem Aquariums down your way Canberra crew Is it this one tried to oppose them but he forgot to do a couple of things: a) look after his fish and B) pick a good location. He was in Fyshwick which is known for other reasons than live fish purchasing cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosco Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 colin, aka lufiersjester I might have room for 2-3 tanks if you go ahead with a rack purchase depending on price I suppose. As the sale of tanks that would complete my room fell through. Something to keep in mund anyhow. Also I own a ute and love beer If you need a hand cheers rosco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosco Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Fit an 8 footer in your ute?? Minus the last 1-2 foot. To give you an indication I can fit a 6x18x2(w) or 5 (maybe 6 I cannot remember 2x18x18's) with the tailgate down. So I suspect that an 8 foot tank would hang over by 1 foot or so, I have 1988 xf ute. HTH Rosco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
