About time for another SEQ BBQ


Squiggle

Recommended Posts

I know Squig but the upside is we are going to try to see the Bennett's tree Kangaroo and get some photos of it as well as explore a part of Black Mountain, some caves and possible underground water?

Hahaha, I think he is scared of you Garny, I think he's worried you'll punish him for snail abuse, lmao! :smiley_simmons:

It definitely sounds like a made up excuse, going collecting & looking for tree kangaroos? Yeah right Bob, you looking for hoop snakes & drop bears too? lmfao :congratulatory::smiley_simmons:

Dam it Garny you are on to me and all those Girls there I will get picked on for sure.

I would have canned the trip except for we have a local showing us some local only spots.

I will have to do a field trip report with lots of photos to prove it.

Squig you are right it won't be as good as a BBQ with you lot but.

Bob

OOPS I for got to put the It after Dam, sorry Garney

Is Black mountain the mountain made of rocks Bob? We saw that a few years ago and were very intrigued by it!

That's the one Ineke and there is places the water runs out from the mountain from underground caves, I have seen photos of crabs from there NICE and the Rainbow fish around that area are really nice, Wallaby ck is one of the types.

Hi Guys, The move to the new marina has been carried out and we are now nice and snug in our new mooring. It's going to be unreal living here. We are only a couple of 100 mtr from the restaurant precinct, including Coles supermarket and a boardwalk tavern.

You will all have an extra 40+ min of sea time from here to Paradise Point our destination for the get together. As we cruise down the Coomera river you will be passing icons like Sanctuary Cove, with all of the lovely waterside houses, then down near the mouth of the Coomera we will be passing Sovereign Island and Ephraim Island both noted for the hang out of the rich and famous.

my wife and I are looking forward to welcoming you all on board for a great day on the water

let me know what you pack - I might only be able to collect moss on our longer trips. We need a separate thread for this as we are hijacking the BBQ thread:encouragement:

      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.

      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.

      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.
