Changed my NSW supply from out of the ocean, to NSW from Seahorse World. Filtered NSW through a $200,000 filtering system that removes all bad things.

Did a 20% Water change last night... Fish had a party afterwards... which was a good response... then when the moonlight came on, wow, total crystal clear clarity . Almost as if it was multi polished. Very impressed that I went and got another 120litres this morning. :)

Thanks, not bad for $35. The mushrooms are on a slither of LR, about 7 in total. Last lot i saw at Kingston were $12 each...ordered some blue ones today... But did notice last night there is a new species in the colour red!

There are some really good priced fish around at the moment. Flame Angels, Fire Gobies, Mandarins all cheap!
Its a bit harder down here to get nicely priced fish and corals. This one is actually about 12cm tip to tail, yet a yellow tang at about 5cm was $130. This was just a lucky catch on a random trip to Hobart.

Thats a nice size fish, not checked the price of yellows here but I picked up my tomini that is about 5cm for $35 . I know it has been mentioned before but I wonder if you can use normal express post to send corals down your way or do they need to be declared?
