Well gumtree doesn't offer a wealth of information like this forum for a start. If you would've used your first post to introduce yourself rather than sell something, you would have found out that the forum opens up as you post, for free. This helps stop spammers, hawkers and scammers and helps to make this the brilliant community that it is.

Plus nobody is out to scare you. Ineke just politely let you know the rules.

Premium membership only opens the classified & auction threads, as torface mentioned, most of the forum opens up to you the more you post. Nobody is forcing you to pay any money but if you want to buy/sell or give anything away then premium membership is the option. We have plenty of members who aren't premium members & they are very happy with the forum

Another thing, as was mentioned earlier too, Ineke just told you the forum rules, nobody mentioned anything about the law so unless you are doing something wrong you shouldn't have anything to worry about.

Don't get me started about Dumbtree, I saw a tilapia for sale on gumtree the other day, that doesn't mean it's legal.

If you don't want to be part of this amazing community all you have to do is PM SKFadmin & ask them to delete you account :encouragement:

You can't say that for sure, I would hope by now they weren't that stupid, or at least have learnt a lesson. If not then there's no hope at all.

But what this person shows though is they're only looking to sell, and sell something that's illegal. Plus they've provided their phone number,

everything that AQIS requires, they couldn't have made it any easier. From a community perspective though it also shows the lack of interest,

and I'd say another fly-by-nighter. Hopefully that's the last we of them, knobs!

Well said indeed .... Might as well be selling shoes if all they want to do is spam their wares with no positive input to such a giving community of like minded people.

.... and I still don't know how this ended up on MY introduction thread .. :confused: ... is there a milestone for most non-related posts on a thread ... hahaha.

      Finally set up the 30L Shrimp Tank

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      It has been a few weeks now and I have done a couple of large water changes. I tested the water parameters this morning, GH6 and KH2, TDS 140 and PH 7.5. Obviously the PH is off but there isn't anything in the tank that should cause the PH to rise to this figure so I will just run the tank for another month with 10% weekly water changes (probably just with RO water) and see where we are at that point. The RO water tests at PH6, and the KH and GH in the tank could come down as they are at the upper limits for Caridina shrimps! There are only about 10 very small snails in there at this point, but they seem to be doing well enough.

      Pure Red Line (PRL) Shrimps Western Australia seller

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      I believe these to be very rare in Australia so you may even consider making it a longer term plan and produce your own by starting with the best CRS you can get as that is where the pure lines started! Depends how patient and interested in the project you are, but would save money as well? If I recall correctly it takes from 8 generations of selective breeding? They sell them at micro aquatic shop but do not ship to Western Australia, but that means they are available in Australia. https://microaquaticshop.com.au/products/pure-red-line-grade-ss-shrimp Good luck and just maybe smeone on here may point you in the right direction or be able to supply you with some.

      Is this garden hose end alloy pipe safe to use for aquarium piping?

      By Subtlefly · Posted

      Yes it’s super accurate to position where I want now and stay there- I am satisfied.  All the fish and shrimpers are doing excellent! Coming up on 4 years running!

      You must be pleased with that, it looks better and is much more robust and less likely to damage or leaks! The tank looks very natural now it has been running for a time. I see the ember tetras, how are the blue shrimp doing, I see a few? The cat and dog look very content and unimpressed, lol.
