wish i was local!!! almost worth a trip up there, but with the shop renovations, i just cant make it...

hope someone will be there to post pics!

Also REALLY GLAD to hear your fish is doing better Jono! Top job mate, a little TLC goes a long way! keep up the water changes mate, they would be loving it!

Get yourself some Seachem Safe rather than Prime, same stuff in powder form, lasts HEAPS longer!!! ive had mine at home for my 6ft for almost a year and its only the medium jar!!!
