    Friends can be AWESOME!!! Got given a 1,2 x 0,6W x 0,9D aquarium by a mate...stand, equipment, sump - the works...even 2 x very good metal halides (punches light right down deep enough to grow a carpet...
    Moving it tomorrow and setup soon... methinks 650ish litres and that depth will make an awesome Discus tank - been FAR to long since I have had them... :headbang::headbang::headbang:

    Hey guys,

    Our son's concert this year was recorded by The Story Mill Productions and today we received this email (mods please editing if this is not acceptable):


    How the fuck do you run a "professional" business if you don't have backups and redundancy on your files?!?!? :mad:
    My photos at home are duplicated on 3 different drives, have a cloud backup and offsite copy at family members.
    How can a business not have at least one backup copy.

    So this is just a warning to you guys, don't ever consider The Story Mill Productions. You might also not get your concert (or even worse wedding) video.
    I'm in contact now with the school to get them removed from the approved supplier list.

    It is shocking behavior, and I am sure it is very common.. people take shortcuts thinking that it would never happen to them.. sad..

    Have a look at a tank fan, reduce the heat up to 4 deg.
    I have them hooked up on my light timers and they work great, tho you loose more water thru evaporation

    If you were close to the parliamentary building...relax, wasn't an earthquake. Was simply the ministers/fat cats getting out of their vehicles at the building's entrance
