Stuart Elflett Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 Hi Folks, Well, lets see, my name is Stuart Elflett, I'm a fishaholic... oh, wrong meeting... I found you guys whilst searching google, chasing any info on how those little floating java balls that all the shops have now are made... given there aren't *that* many Australian fishkeeping oriented sites, I figured it'd be worth joining (I'm a member of four other forums, regular contributor 'cos I'm a forum junkie... lol) Hmmmm, what fish do I keep?? Guppies, an Oto, Fantails, Black Moors, Homaloptera Yunnanensis, Gastromyzon (Hillstream Loach/Borneo Sucker), an Albino Cory, a couple of Swordtails, Danios (zebra's, and longfins - hopefully some Kerri Danio if I can get 'em), Neon Tetras, Blue Rams, Congo Tetras, Black Widow Tetras, White Clouds and a few Platy's... I'll post some pics soon... Outside of fish... well, I'm an avid photographer, I've done commercial photographic work, but I don't make a living from it, just do what comes along, I'm considered a petrol head, I'm definitely a reader (and ocassional writer) but I don't do much cross stitch... I also cook (read that in your best Steven Seagal voice, please...) I look forward to meeting you all here, and getting to know a bit about you, too... Cheers, Stuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightingfishfancier Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 Hello and Stuart, Sounds like you have a nice mix of fish there. What kind of petrolhead are you? Cheers, Heidi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 Hey Stuart, Welcome Yeah what kind of petrol head lol? It seems like you have very nice and interesting fish, although we need pics we all love pics here!! (and no excuses because i read the photography bit too!!!) You need bettas! The only thing your missing! A few weeks with us and im sure you'll have some! Ned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bettarazzi Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 Oh good more photography expertise. You can teach me how to take better pics of my fish. And please don't say DSLR, faewyn has already done that. Go back to the LFS in a couple of weeks and check out the java moss balls. They will have started to unravel by then LOL! One of the LFSs I go to has a number of naked bio balls floating off some fishing line. Pretty sure they used to be java moss balls. I don't think they even managed to sell any before the things started to come apart Welcome to Bettaholics Anonymous! Bettaholic / Fishaholic / Forumholic.... you'll fit in well.

Ned Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 i was hoping for a XU1 GT-R LJ Torana, but i got an AU Falcon. Ford fans, disappointing! Nice looking kit on it though, is it a Tickford kit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brother bear Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 Hang in there Ned i'm still working on the missus to let me build a 1967 fastback shellby gt-500 mustang ( elanor ) with a betta tank in the dash, that will be sexy BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Elflett Posted June 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 i was hoping for a XU1 GT-R LJ Torana, but i got an AU Falcon. Ford fans, disappointing! Nice looking kit on it though, is it a Tickford kit? No, I've got a Hawk front bar, and a C2R rear bar, the standard XR6 spoiler, and cloned XR8 side skirts - Speedy 'Mantaray' 17" wheels... will be putting a sports ute grille on there, with mesh to match the Hawk bar...

Robbies Betta Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 Welcome Stuart And Mike I agree with you, what the **** is a "Hawk front bar, and a C2R rear bar, the standard XR6 spoiler, and cloned XR8 side skirts - Speedy 'Mantaray' 17" wheels" WAY over my head there all I know is, a ford is a car, just the same as a holden (tho I prefer the holdens, sshhh) This place sure has the unusual mixture of fish, horse, car, pet ppl I have ever seen, so don't worry Stuart, I'm sure you'll find some other petty head outs there :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightingfishfancier Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 Wash your mouth out Robbie a holden and a ford are not the same!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 mesh to match the bar would look really good. not as good as a holden, but still.. it would look okay :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
