i'll go for ALL the plants please - how much?

 

I'm trying to sell the whole lot together but if someone make an offer for the rest i will keep u in mind, they are worth abour R500.

Derrick

 

ok cool - let me know

 

I would REALLY like the Apistos!! Seriously!! REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY!!!!!

 

Guys, I have seen this tank. It's really awesome. Unfortunately, my Minister Of Finance has cut the fish budget, so no additional tanks for me for a while.

 

Can I have your Bitaeniata!! Pretty please!! Lol! Love those fish!

I was seriously impressed with this tank when I popped in a few weeks back, and if I had the cash and space I would buy it in a flash!!

If anyone wants a great tank, I would seriously recommend this tank!! The background alone is very impressive! I believe Derrick made the background himself!?

Good look with the sale mate, and if any Apistos or Vallis are available I'd happily consider them!

Cheers
G!

 

How the hell do you okes keep the glass so clean?

I always always always have a bit of algae growth at the gravel level, but it seems nobody else ever has that problem.


Awesome photos by the way!

 

Thanx Darryn:bigsmile:

Guys like i said to Henk i'm trying to sell the whole thing together and so far i have offers for the fish and the plants, if i get someone to take the tank by itself i will def sell the fish seperatly.

I use the magnetic algae scraper a few hours before taking pics:smile1:

 

Anyone wanna buy a R12,000 Giant Mountain Bike for R6000 so that I can get this awesome setup??

Just to check Derrick, is there a stand for this tank or is this sale without a stand??

Regards
Big G!

 

:date:Look hun I bought you all the gifts you want for Valentines Day, oh please would you be so kind to buy this tank for me, or allow me to buy it atleast? :bigsmile:

Derick I wish I could take this beauty of your hands, but persuading the other half is a bit of a trivial task. Maybe I should ask the inlaws for help in convincing her.

 

whatever happened to the baby cacu's you were raising????

 

He sold them all recently!!

There was another thread in the for sale section a few weeks back!

G!

 

Yup I got four of them and they are settling REALLY well.... thanks again to Derrick for shipping them to far out Durbs

 

No prob, glad to hear they doing ok, put some pics up when u can.

 

Ok guys its now for sale for R2000 for everything

 

Is this setup still available?

 

Nope!! It now resides in another country!! Derrick took it with him!!

Cheers!
G!

 

Yip and i will be setting it up in a couple weeks:bigsmile:
