Where are you in Norfolk? Can I view? What filter is with it, the standard internal?

That'd be T8. I'm after T5, sorry. Good luck with the sale.

What bulbs does it have/take? T5 or T8

Thanks for the reply. The tank has filtration adaquated for a tank 3 times it's size, a Fluval 304. The filter is as mature as it gets, well over 6 months old and used to be on a high stocked 240L. Water changes are 50% per week. They shoal in the mid area of the water column which I am keeping...

Loads of Cherry Shrimp and Moss. :good:

I want to put some Dwarf Chain Loach in my daughters tank to keep the snail problem at bay. The tank is 60L and currently houses; 6 Guppies (All male) 5 Glowlight Tetra's 1 Frog Some Cherry Shrimp How many Dwarf Chain Loach can I add? I was thinking about 4, 6 would be better but I think that...

Cro It's the first 3 letters of my surname and was my nick name at school, there were 3 Alex's so we had to differentiate. :rolleyes: I am not from Croatia, as I seem to get asked a lot via pm on a lot of forums. :rolleyes: Baller because someone else had already taken Cro on it's own and...

Thanks for the info I will pass it on. :good: The friend is infact a collegue at work who is, admittedly, losing interest in keeping his fish and is finding it hard to dedicate the necessary time to it. I'm hoping he'll look to sell the tank as I may be able to talk the wife round. :good...

A friend of mine has a marine tank and has developed a large algae problem. Now the knowledge I have gained is purely for tropical so can anyone point me towards an article similar to this one http://www.theplantedtank.co.uk/algae.htm but which is specific to marine please? He also asked me...

In my Rio 240ltr I put sand on the bottom then JBL Aquabasis + (1 and a half bags of) then Oliver Knott Nature Soil on the top (1 and a half bags again) So substrate ended up costing in excess of £125 :crazy: The Oliver Knott is really nice but does move a lot, I wouldn't recommend it for...

Received mine today. Plants in excellent condition with very good roots and a very good quantity also. www.greenneedle.co.uk come highly recommended from me. :good:

The long grass is most likely Vallis, but without pictures it's hard to say. Are you using a drop checker to measure how much Co2 you have in the tank? Running it at that rate, and during the night too, maybe filling the water column with too much of it. This isn't a bad thing for the plants...

Prune back all the dead and looking tired leaves, it'll grow back fine assuming you have all the necessary in your tank.

Nitrite = 0 Nitrate = 0 pH = 6.4 (lower than normal but I am running pressurised Co2 now) Ammonia = 0.25 On the Clown Loach, and a few of the Pentazonian Barbs have it a bit too. none of the other fish have it, they are Kissing Gourami, Dwarf Gourami, Sailfin Molly, Corydora Catfish & Cardinal...

A number of my fish have developed a white area on their noses/top lip. Anyone got any ideas what it might be?

I have 2 or 3 pieces spare if you want pics?

I'm after either some Blyxa Japonica or Eleocharis parvula to make a nice grass bed in my tank. Looking for a good clump of it but please post up or pm with anything you may have. Also looking for some Hemianthus Callitrichoides too please. Paypal waiting. Cheers

3 pots for £10 posted?

I've just topped mine with Oliver Knott Nature Soil Fine in black and it looks the nuts, it is expensive mind.

He He looks like I got stiffed then, I paid £19.99 for it. :crazy:

Tetratec £12.50 posted if you're interested? It's virtually new, only used for about 3 weeks.

Brand is Algarde, model I have no idea as the sticker isn't there, it came with the tank but was a little too noisy as my tank is very close to my sofa. I also have a single outlet Tetratec APS50 if you're interested?

I have a spare with 2 outlets, £10 delivered? Can get pics up tonight if you're interested.

Do you run an air pump? If not try running one at night as your fish maybe starved of oxygen due to the plants releasing Co2. During the day there should be no need to run an air pump as the plants release oxygen during this period, there's no reason why you can't run one all the time though.

I have 2 spare air pumps. 1 Tetratec with a single outlet and another (can't remember what make at present) with 2 outlets. Either will be cheap as they are surplace to my requirements.

Get some Schwartzi's (NOT Super Schwartzi) they are lovely. Make sure you have 3 or more though as I had one on his own for a while and he got really depressed, got him 3 friends and within an hour he was like a new fish.

TYVM. :good: Now I just need to find somewhere that sells them, my one is lonely. :(

Some sort of Loach isn't he? Whatever he is he's gorgeous. Have a look on here to see if you can ID him. http://www.loaches.com/

Unless he's held a very large, strong magnet against the drive it doesn't matter how they've been deleted, they'll still be recoverable. It's very rare for an average user to go to the lengths to destroy data so much that it is practically unrecoverable, unless they have something to hide. Some...

I like the sound of that. :good:

All files are recoverable, with the right software. :nod:

General consensus on UKAPS is Schwartzi.

Cheers for that. I am planning a whole day to do the full tank makeover so hopefully I have given enough time to encorporate this too. :crazy:

TYVM :good:

Please see the picture below, it's not very good I'm afraid as my camera is a bit crap and my tank needs a clean. :blush: I'd like to know if it's bogwood or substrate for it when I do my planted tank.

Please see the pictures below, they're not very good I'm afraid as my camera is a bit crap and my tank needs a clean. :blush:

I keep trying but my camera is rubbish, I'll borrow a decent camera and get a pic up asap.

I didn't know what type mine was (came with the tank) so I Googled Corydoras and this is the one that he looks like. Having said that he looks a little like the one in your avatar too lol. I did get 3 peppered Cory's to keep him company but they don't seem to mix. :sad:

Cash waiting or can rehome for free if required. I'm based in Norwich and would prefer not to have them posted, can collect from radius 50 miles. This is the type incase (like me) you're not sure.

i have found these very useful. http://reviews.ebay.co.uk/Growing-Aquatic-...000000002332654 http://reviews.ebay.co.uk/Growing-Aquatic-...000000002357748
