Right guys, thanks a bunch for all the advise on the fluval 305 cleaning. Everything went well last saturday. I had do a little bit of priming to get all the air bubbles out before plugging it in, but yeah on the whole it went well. Without jinxing it, its been a week since and no sign of any...

Sorry onebto, i couldn't take them. Wish they were scalare rather than the veiltail. Hope someone takes them. Did you try LFSs near you at all to see if they can rehome them?

Nice one Karin. Dont mind the live commentary at all :lol: . That should teach some manners to the pearl gourami :lol: Once it settles may be you can try him again in the 36G. Enjoy!! They really are fantastic fish especially as they add a new dimension with their shape and finnage

Thanks fuzzynicki. I cant wait to get the angel, but will take time :(. If you are not into breeding platies and mollies, it's for the good anyways, otherwise your tank will be full of livebearers :lol: I made sure i got all male guppies and platies. Hoping for the angel day to come soon

Hey onebto I'm in Staines, Surrey. I'm looking to get a single angel for my tank as its only a 125l and only have space for 1. I would have to rehome my guppies as well so as to put in an angel. My tank is not a tall tank, so cant keep any veiltail's. I'm not an expert, so are your angels...

Hey Karin I don't have as many tanks as you but only a 125l tank. Although I have two bolivian rams (1m,1f), Apisto Macmasteri and the pearl gourami (male) along with other smaller fish. My 4 month experience has been a bit of a mixed bag. Male bolivian ram was the first in the tank and after a...

Thanks Carl, i'll give it a try as i'm hooked on the angel now :rolleyes: Thanks fuzzynicki. You are lucky you have a 260 litre as the gouramis and angels would have more space to get away from each other. I'm on a 125 litre, so kind of restricted if they dont like each other. I did read...

Just my 4 months experience with my bolivians, since they are in QT, i'm assuming you got them recently. I introduced my bolivian female after a while my male bolivian male was in the tank. When i introduced the female, the male was always after it, like as soon as it sees the female it would...

i'm about to do my first 305 maintenance this weekend and now i'm very scared :no: But glad you got it replaced and very good from MHA

and so is yours hamfist for getting a 50mm prime and flash guns :rolleyes: Lovely fish btw and so is Keith's killi

I'm planning to give away the guppies and platies which will then leave the pearl gourami and harlequins at the top. I just measured the water level and excluding the gravel, height is 15.5 - 16". Is it so bad :sad: :-( ?

Right, who has/had kept single pearl gourami with a single angel (normal one not a veiltail) in a 3ft tank (125litres) with water depth of 18inches? Elaborate your experiences and misfortunes please. Thanks

Thanks A~T. I was following your rather 'long' fishless cycle a while back. You must be enjoying your tank a lot now. Thanks Joshua. Most probably until I see a flow issue or a problem with my filter, i would not go near cleaning those hoses :lol: but still good to get the information and...

No yet, will do it this saturday. I'll give it a good clean and hopefully not much gunk :rolleyes: Flow wise i already run it on 75% speed with the outlet facing towards the right wall. I'll update after i do the cleaning. Wish me luck :good:

Nice pics hamfist. Would you mind sharing what lens did you get?
