Hi all,

I wanted to know if anyone uses rain water for thier water changes,as i have'nt seen any press on it.

Is there a danger to the Kings of the aquarium or this is just to hard to do and the general water supply from our towns is close enough.

P.S. I work in the transport industry so i'm going to send a tanker to Wang as there must be something specail in the water out there,Brad your the Man

I think part of the secret of the Wangaratta water, is that it has no fluoride. That, along with Ben's very good fish keeping practices, have contributed to his success.

Raising discus fry isn't an easy task, and Brad's doing a wonderful job.
