    Do Shelldwellers Eat Snails?

    Really? What happens? When you get the fish do they nominate their own shells? Also do you think this set up will be ok: http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=196605&hl=

    Can A Pleco Eat This?

    I agree i dont find dead fish coz my pleco eats them first and so be it its nature. I quite like it, he is the most dominant cish in the tank!! lol

    Ahh! Unexpected Birth From My Molly!

    I tried using a breeding trap but it just seemed cruel but thats my opinion, everyone is different, as i said try moss, i have java moss.

    Ahh! Unexpected Birth From My Molly!

    do you keep any moss in your tank? I have found ever since i added moss i have had loads of guppy fry. Its only natural that they get eaten so add some moss for a hdin place for them n you will soon have plenty n not know what to do with them all.

    Puffers Or Shelldwellers?

    so what do you feed them on a day to day basis? So you just leave the pH as it is with the tap water?

    Puffers Or Shelldwellers?

    Well thats one vote for puffers atleast. Think i will go with shelldwellers coz they are easier to keep too and I can have more of them. Heard puffers were fun but i could only have two of three. Havent got them yet ocz i still aint even started my cycle yet but as soon as ido ill get them...

    Tin Foil For A Reflector

    Cool cool, there seems to be some conflicting views however think i would just go with a reflector. What would be the best bulb to put in my jewel rekord? It has a bulb in at the mo but dunno how old it is, it is gonna be a planted tank.

    Tin Foil For A Reflector

    I did the same with the plastic fablon for my hood to match the stand n it looks great. As for gallons it is 15 UK gallons, 70 litres n it is just the light unit that came with it 15 W, not very much.
