I would like to get a fish tank with one or more b

[BucknutZ]

The plans with the filtering system sounds good.

The exotic spider thing doesn't sound that good no. My friend has 2 turantuala's and he told me that it's more of a headache to keep them than anything else! He buy's them crickets and when night time arrives the crickets refuse to go to bed!

Not my scene.

My brother-in-law caught a bobbejaan spinnekop en gooied it in a small fish tank with only a pice of hardboard as top cover. The cleaning lady bumped the hardboard of when cleaning. When he asked her where his spider was, she almost fainted. She didnt even see the spider in the tank when cleaning. She refused to clean his room for a while........ LOL!!!!

Ne never found the spider!

I must say I fear spiders and snakes alot!!!

Was net al die sand voor jy dit in die tank sit en laat die tank met alles in behalwe die vis staan met al die filters loop vir 'n week. Kook geaktiveerde koolstof in warm water laat af koel en hang dit dan in 'n sykous met 'n gewig aan die onderkant in die tenk vir die tyd. Sal jou visse gesond hou en keer dat al die crap in ons water nie die bass dood maak nie.

Lol JasonG

My friend refused to touch he's 2 spiders but one night we bought 2 bottles of Jack's and i dared him to hold the female.......lets just say he never held them again.

He now wants to give em to me for free (worth about R3000) but i'm not interested in sleeping with noisy crickets.

 

[Monster]

What 'n bargain

Ek sou een in elke hand vas gehou het vir twee bottles Johan(Jack)

 

[BucknutZ]

Those things are huge.....almost the size of my hand and i don't have small hands mate.

I won't hold them after 3 bottles of Jack's.

I remember the good old days with Jack's......i don't miss em at all tho.

 

[Monster]

Ok, but I dont't have any fear of spiders. Dad use to live in Hectrospruit and we ha a heatlty population of Roman Spiders living in the house. Ugly, fast and would sometimes chase you.

Plus two bottles of Jack is almost a years supply.  

 

[BucknutZ]

Roman spiders are ugly things ey.

 

[Monster]

Almost like my ex

 

[Johanvc]

LMAO @ Monster. O So i take it she was a Spider HA HA HA

 

[Monster]

No, more like a Roman

 

[Johanvc]

bwaaaaaahahahahaha

 

[Scrat]

My great grandpa used to pay my dad money to catch al kinds of insects and snakes for him. He had spiders and snakes everywhere. The trees where covered with spider webs and white nests. The old people where a weird bunch!!!! I think the war f then up!!!

I also had a few "roman spider" girlfriends. Its amazing sometimes when you look back at your life and wonder WTF was I doing...... hahahahaha!!!!

 

[BucknutZ]

Don't you oaks even get me started on ex's. I had my fair share on the weird ones.

Had one that use to follow me all over the place after the break up that happened 4 months prior to it. I use to come home lekker pissed and then she would just appear out of the dark next to me while i was struggling to find the right key to open my front door.

She scares me ......emagine you drunk and struggling with the house key in the dark and then this figure appears saying" Can i help you"!! I thought many times that i was opening someone elses house door!

She drove me nuts!

 

[Scrat]

Guns 'n Roses has a song: "I used to love her but I had to kill her"

LMAO!!!

 

[Scrat]

Back to the tank....

Here is a low quility pic of the tank after I fixed it up and cleaned it yesterday. It has gravel and water in at the moment. The pump and filter has been doing its thing since late last night. The water allready looked crystal clear this morning. I'll take some pics with a proper camera as soon as I have some structure inside.

 

[Monster]

Nice

 

[scuba]

i have a question. earlier in the discussion it was mentioned a permit to keep a bass in your house will cost you about R500. but if bass are not indiginous to south africa why do you need a permit whereas any other animals that are not indiginous to south africa you don't need a permit? take birds for example if it comes from outside south africa you don't need a permit but if it is a south african specie you need a permit?

just something to get the brain thinking...

 

[Monster]

State wants to make money.... No one will break your door down in search off an  illegal bass tank.
