General Description I have a three year old Piggie wtih a 2.4 metre long set up (not an aquarium but a pond). The pond also comes with filter, heaters (800 watts worth), fluro light and stands to put the light on, gravel (there's about 60kg worth) and even a 9 inch long Barramundi!!! Plus logs and fake plants in the water. This pond will last him at least another 5 years and probably longer. A total of about 1500 litres of water. But you need to heat it so think about that. You will need a trailer to transport the pond. Best kept inside but remember it will increase the humidity of any room it is in - not bad if you have chondros but real bad if you have levis or other desert animals.

Now break down teh costs of this stuff:

Cheapest baby flipper turtle: $500 (and this one is 3 yeears old and already in Sydney)
New Tank $540
Barramundi $40
Filter $180
Fluro Light $50 (fitting Only)
Gravel $100
Heaters $100

Pictures to come but flipper turtles all look the same

Location Narellan, Sydney South West


Willing to Freight? yeah - for another $1,000 in NSW or $2,000 to SA, Qld or Vic. You would be crazy though!!

Someone is interested in the turtle only so if you just want the pond you can get together and work out who is paying what. Here are some pics.
