Post subject:  Hi there, new convert from SOR Perth!

Newbie here, been trawling the forums recently and found some great information, so thanks everyone! I have just set up an IBC system of 700L FT and 300LT GB and it seems to be going ok. I test the water every day and it's pretty much cycled. So far I have 4 yabbies but tomorrow I will add some SP from Carey in Gidgie. I'm pretty excited, in fact I can't stop peeking in the tank, it's pretty addictive! Look forward to trying to make this work- anyway, just thought I'd say hello. Oh yeah, I have plenty of photos that I've been taking at every stage of the project so I will post them if people are interested! Nice to meet you all!

The name's Dan,nice to meet you all, here are a few photo's, apologize if they are not to inspiring, my system is new and I need to expand (IBCs on the way)! Hmm, having trouble attaching photos, do they need to be resized?

Yes. They need to be resized. I think 800x600 is the maximum size allowed. There is a couple of threads on here on what tools can help you and how to do it.

I agree, a cool photo. You should submit into the annual photo contest.
