They are 25 L - will text her now

There is some nice live rock in there - ask Nick how long the rowa has been in there, Isuspect it will need changing

 

[seffieuk]

Sorry, she says she wants to keep them - she has given up Marine but is still keeping fish - god knows what she is doing with them! Oh hang on, have I got some small ones in shed................just nip out and have a look

 

[Tony_essex]

lol .... waits for seffie to go to shed .... hope she likes spiders

 

[seffieuk]

I have got three small ones 3 x 10L probably not worth the bother to borrow them

You can pick 25L ones up from camping and general, think my 25L ones were about £8



Although, if you want to borrow them, could take them into school and ask Nick to take them home?

 

[Tony_essex]

well i think nick was goin to look at his mums for his other 25L but yes if i need them then id happyly borrow them and make sure u get them back , are you seeing nick this week ? or is that a silly question

Tony

and the rowa im sure he said he had some new still but if not ill get some

 

[seffieuk]

are you seeing nick this week ? or is that a silly question

Yes, it is indeed a silly question I see him every day, well except at the weekend and that has been known, ask him about Leigh Folk Festival!

 

[Tony_essex]

lol ok well ill message him tonight and say about useing new water and sand as he said to use old water and sand so we dont have to save the water now or sand and if he cant find his other 25l one ill borrow your 3 if that ok

goin back to the liverock i dont think id need any more LR tbh there some nice bits in there just not sure if id keep it the same or change about abit as want to add few more corals and only few in there

Tony

 

[seffieuk]

Oh yes, you have to have a mess around with the rock - it has to be done

 

[Tony_essex]

im looking forward to that i think lol really dunno how i want it setup lol

well had a good and bad night bought a new hood of a member on UR cheap which i plan to mod and fit aquarays to but i also thought i bought a aquaray blue on UR monday but seems he now selling to someone else thay offered tuesday !!! so bit pee'd off tbh as it seems its not first come first serve

also should be orderin my new sand tomorrow but and this is where seffie u come in lol CaribSea Aragonite Fiji Pink is this live sand ?

Tony

 

[MrLiam]

That sand can come in live or not live tbh most people will say to use the non live sand because live sand doesn't have a expiration date and non live sand will soon become live when it is seeded by your LR.

 

[seffieuk]

Thats a pain re ur, but not unusal i'm afraid

When you picking the tank up?

And when are you starting a journel in the journel section

 

[Tony_essex]

cheers liama

seffie not this weekend but hopefully weekend after or the one after that at lastist goin to LFS this wkend to get few more bits and will get sand from there
