Looks good, very natural looking :good:

How big is your tank. The Tahitian moon sand is cheaper. The B&Q stuff is £5.98 for 1.8kg. The moon sand works out at roughly £2.79 for 1.8kg. ( I think i've got my sums right, I hope so or I'm going to look like a right idiot lol).

0 would be OK.

Not sure if you would be able to use that. But the black sand sepcificaly for aquariums is called Tahitian Moon Sand. Something like this: http://www.charterhouse-aquatics.co.uk/cat...0lb-p-1726.html

But your tank is still to small.

20-50 guppy's is nuts with all that is in the tank, as is 2 severums in that tank, as is 4 clown loaches and everything else on the list. You say the guppy's are feeder fish, the BGK won't touch them at the size it is @ 2 inches. They are slow growers. Just empty the tank and start all over, and...

People will still think your crazy, when you buy a fish you should think about the size it gets fully grown, not the size it is when you buy it.

They are stunning, really like the red dragon on the top, very striking.

I can't see to much of a problem with that sized tank, the fish are only going to be in there for a couple of weeks. I've got a 6 gallon clearseal tank that I use for quarantine, never had issues, and it saves on meds only sing a small amount.

what about the tetratec ex600

If you have problems rehoming any of the fish at your LFS, it may be worth putting ads on places like www.aquarist-classifieds.co.uk, gumtree, or on here.

Planted tank looks spot on, nice job.

If you go to www.mediafire.com, you can upload the files there, and then post the link of the files to here. It might be easier to put them in a zip fole. Highlight all of the files together, then right click on them, and there should be an option like add to archive or something similar. You...

If you go to this location: C:>windows>minidump. There should be some files in there with .dmp on the end. If you can upload them, and i'll have a look at them, it may give some better clues into why your system is doing this.

If you look at this post, http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?s=&amp...t&p=1953575 it says can be used in aquariums with seawater invertebrates. I read another post on another forum (not allowed to link to it), saying it didn't harm any inverts in this persons tank, so I guess it would be OK...

If your getting 50/50, I would try them in the tank together, If one of them doesn't like the tank, or parameters, there is the option of tank No 8!!!

Beautiful tank, great job!!!

Nice, like it. Like the inhabitants.

I should imagine the joists in a loft would need supporting to hold the weight of the tanks from a fish room. Best way to find out would be to get a structural engineer round and see what they said. Best to check with the insurance company as said above, last thing you'd want is an entire floor...

Can't find anything at all about "Neon Blue Rams". Was it a German Blue Ram relabelled. If not, I would suspect it's a dyed fish. Did the colouring look natural???

Thanks guys. The wood came with the tank when I got it, the large piece in the middle has a cave inside which the clowns hide in when they feel the need. I'm going to change the background sometime soon, not to sure about the black though. Might also get some fake plants if I can find some...

Thanks :P

Not the first time i've been told that, and I guess it sure won;t be the last :hyper:

Filter floss is white fluffy stuff basically!!! Like this: You can look on ebay and get some, or if you've got a garden centre or pond shop near you you can buy masses of it for pretty cheap.

I'm always being told a king died and there is $1000000 in a bank in Nigeria waiting for me. Can never be bothered to collect it, I hope they'll pay interest in the bank they are holding it for me. http://www.break.com/usercontent/2006/10/N...oof-173522.html

I find my clowns do it all the time. Real fun to watch when all 3 of them are doing it together. It's funny when the lights are off in the tank, and they lay on their sides playing dead, someone will say to me one of your fish is dead, then they get a shock when it swims off!!!

That tanks amazing, I want one. I'd love some Arapaima gigas, awesome looking fish.

When younger they can be OK for a community tank, and will eat algae, but when they get older/larger they will get a lot more aggressive and defend their territory. It's also know for them to also stop eating algae and get a taste for the slime coat on fish. They may also kill smaller fish in...

rofl!!! Tanks overstocked, as everyone else has said. What filters are running in the tank??????

It was a warm day, and I'd just got off the tube :lol:

The best way to clean the filter is to do it in a bucket of tank water or dechlorinated water. If you run the sponges under the cold water, chances are the chlorine in the water is going to kill of the beneficial bacteria, which could then lead to ammonia and nitrIte spikes in your tank.

If you go over to here, they may be able to help you a bit better, the planted tank section of the forums: http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showforum=10

I'd say bow front if it gave you slightly more surface area. What tanks are they.

This is me, after a day and few beers in London!!

I don't think goldfish and oscars will go well together in a tank as the oscars are tropical, goldfish coldwater. The oscar may be a bit funny at first, may take a few days for him to get use to the new surroundings.

:blush: :lol:

Nice size. Post some pictures when you pick it up. May be good to set up a diary of sorts, showing when you picked it up, filling, stocking etc etc. Edit: Fish don't do milk!!!!

I think it depends on the dog. My dog bobby, a whippet, has no desire whatsoever to play fetch, he'll run, as whippets do, but play fetch, never. I don't think he would ever be taught, just not his thing!!!

If you go to this thread, there are some good topics on it regarding tank cycling, maintenance and loads more: http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=277264

I knew it decreased with media etc, but never knew by that much, that's a hell of a lot. Cheers for that info :good: I'm going to leave it a couple of weeks, then hopefully i'll have a severum!! Thanks for the info guys.
