Is king island cheese cheaper down there?

I really doubt it! How much is it up there?

I don't hate cats (we have 3)...but I'm allergic to some cats (not all)

This is awesome! I'm definitely free that weekend & I can pick people up from the airport too, got a couple of spare rooms too if anyone needs. Sounds like I'll need to bring extra rods too. :victorious:

Excuse me BOB I am not a sandgroper ! I would love to make the trip but it will need to be another time as I will need to be home to supervise a very boisterous puppy who will not be allowed to run or play during that time. Bummer it will be a great get together.

Massive Shrimp sale = tickets over and I am DAM sure you will not have to pay accommodation or transport, there would be many people jumping at the chance to put the 2 of you up.

Yes, I've looked but the prices are about the same. The cheapest I've found so far was just over $ 400, which is not too bad.

How far apart are Gold Coast and Brisbane? Where do you guys (with the spare beds) live and where is the BBQ? Would people put up with me for TWO nights?

      Good video by Chris Lukhaup!

      By beanbag · Posted

      One interesting thing he mentioned was "Bacteria pressure", which I guess just means number of bacteria around.  Yet I see all these other videos from shrimpkeepers bragging about how much bacteria their filtering system holds. Also interesting is no mention of using anti-biotics to treat bacterial infection.  I think that has fallen out of favor recently.

      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.
