So there not cheap because their rubbish then? Do you reckon its worth considering getiing one over a more expensive eheim then if you're on a budget

Was searching around on the web and found these. Superfish Aqua Pro External Filters I was wondering if anyone has used/got one and are they any good. They seem so much cheaper than other brands so there must be some sort of catch, right?

wow that is seriously cooool

Its always tricky when planting up a tank to get it too look tip-top, mainly because theres so many options and you cant decide what will look best! What i try to do is keep the same species of plant together in bunchs to maximise their effect. I always try and leave a fairly 'open' area in the...

All sounds like a load of old carp to me.

200 quid buy it now- I dont think so somehow

Are you nuts!? Of course you shouldn't go back and tell him, see it as you're little bit of luck for the week

Bit Gaudi and naff aint it

At last, someone with exactly the same jewel cichlids that I have. Can you tell me anything about them as I dont really know anything about the ones I have.

Cool, you learn something every day! I spose that the vets has very little time to do anything as well right, otherwise the fish would dry up? Must be quite tricky to put stitches in a fish as well.

Wow, how do they operate on a fish?

Hmmmmm, the old trick of right clicking, then going to properties to find the name didnt work this time!

Pleco needs new home

Right, at the mo my tank is 30"x12"x18", which is equal to 32 US gallons, right? I currently have one 25w bulb, which means my WPG is only about 0.78, right? Which means to get my WPG up to around 2-3, I'm gonna need at least 2 more 25w bulbs. Is this right, it seems very excessive to me? (...

Surely it wouldn't make any difference at all as wasps and other such insect type things are probably what all fish eat in the wild anyway e.g.flies etc..(I would have thought)

Thank you, most helpful.

Anyone know how to do this or has anyone got a link to a website which does, or a formula to work it out with. Last time I tried this the site told me the wrong answer. Also, could anyone specify what the answer is in e.g. US gallons, UK gallons etc...

Robotic Fish Saw this on the news today, wondered if anybody else had seen it and what they thought of it. You never know, one day we could all have a robotic fish of some kind in our tanks.... AM I STUPID OR WHAT I HAVE JUST THE POST EARLIER DUR

I did think of that but I didn't want to risk totally destroying the tube (I know what I'm like :whistle: ) But even with that I doubt it would have fitted over. So to make this work I reckon you would have to have either a larger bit of pipe or a smaller sports cap. It would save a hell of a...

Yea yea I know about the whole shark situation etc... But I've not had any probs so far, and I'm looking for a new tank to sort things out anyway.

Oh. I could have sworn I changed my signature the other day. Ohwell. Yeah I reckon they are near/on the limit but no probs so far.

Isn't it illegal to take home rocks etc... from beaches in Britain. (wahey 100 posts!)

I'm pretty sure its only one tank. Might be worth it for a tenner though if you can re-home the fish.

Dunno its not mine. Just found it on ebay when searching for a tank to buy, saw that and thought blimey they've overcooked that a bit haven't they.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Fishtank-Cabinet_W0Q...1QQcmdZViewItem Just a little over stocked dont you think?

I doubt it cos I'm skint. :( I dont really understand all the pressurised stuff anyway. Have to do some more reading methinks...

Wow thats amazing! Its scenes like that that give pond keeping its magic.

I have three in my tank ( and before you say anything yes I am planning to move them) and they are absolutely fine

Come on guys whats with all the goldfish bashing! I agree that some of them are a bit wierd(like the fuzzy headed ones), but my fantails are brill.

I cannot believe that anyone would get upset over a thread like this, as it not like anyone is taking any severe criticism or anything, and if you do get upset, you really shouldn't read it.

I really cannot stand Guppies as I think they are gaudi and gross.

Well I've just got the usual sugar, yeast mixture, but to be honest I cant say that my measurements were exactly accurate. I mean, it depends on what your veiw cup is doesn't it. I put one cup of sugar in and thought it was loads, so i left it at that. And half a teaspoon of yeast like what i...

Very nice and colourful. Have to get some of these myself some day.

Looks good, I like the dark substrate, I'm a big believer that it always looks nicer than natura gravel. Its already got a backdrop hasnt it? That looks good as well, all the stones an that. I'm agreed that it does need a few more plants though.

Ok, thanks for your help. Its quite possible that my tank calculations are wrong, because I worked it out on a website(probably inaccurate). I've rechecked and my is 18" in height, and 12" from front to back, and 3 foot wide/long, so your probably right. The tube I'm using at the moment is an...

Been having a few problems with my 33 gallon planted tank recently. Its fairly heavily planted, but I've started to notice that its starting to struggle a bit recently. I know my lighting isn't ideal (25w), but I'm working on this. (does anyone have any tips on how to improve the reflection of...

Yeah I go on forums all the time in school, not just this one. But being in 6th Form does give us a little bit more 'freedom' teacher wise than before. The only thing they dont like is if you get on MSN, but with us being sneaky an all we've found ways around there 'bans'.........

Got a few pics. Dunno how much help they'll be though, cos I presume I've done it the same way as anybody else. (Hope these pics work) This is what I mean by the 'sports' cap. By taking the top bit off, you could just push the tube straight on. Thats the bottle I've set up. Thats how I've...

Its all dry now, but how the hell do I connect it to the filter outlet bit. I've got a fluval 3+ edit: I'm so stupid I've worked it out now

Being the boring sod that I am with nothing better to do on a friday night, I decided to make a DIY C02 system, regardless of whether I really need one or not. For once I've managed to find everything I need to make something in the house ( without having to go and buy something, making this...
