    My Rio 180

    Thanks genesis, wasnt sure on the gallons Nick, yes it is the structured background, i really like it, much better than off the roll backgrounds which have no textutre of depth and the fish like picking away at it, i assume at algae growing on it

    My Rio 180

    Ive been doing lots of work on my tank. Ive planted it alot more heavily. Removed the Juwel filter from the tank as it was ugly and took up too much space. Ive added cold cathode moonlights. Ive also added a DIY co2 system which has made the plants grow like crazy Have to chop some of them back...

    Community Tank Stocking Ideas, And Buying Fish For Purpose!

    I say get millions of neons, 50+ atleast. 10 neons in a tank the size of yours will look lost. Got some Harlequins recently, they are lovely little fish too, infact pretty much agree with everything Nim has said above. Corydora's are lovely little fish. An obvious one is platies in some really...

    Biorb Substrate...

    HeHe, i know it well, the missus would only let me get a biube/biorb as she liked the look, they can be good but are a bit fiddly. In the end i convinced her otherwise and bought a secondhand rio180 for less than the biube cost brand new :)

    Biorb Substrate...

    I had a biube for 6 months and never bought a new filter, just squeeze the old sponge out in dirty tank water at a water change, saves a few quid and add new carbon. Id be wary of changing the substrate for anything finer as the filter sucks water through the substrate at the bottom, anything...

    Sick Neons, Please Help

    After some more advice, lost all but 1 of my neons and the remaining one isnt looking too happy. A few of my other fish have developed spots on their finage but not their bodies. My female betta had what i assume was whitespot but now looks mostly better, the spots she had looked like grains of...

    Sick Neons, Please Help

    They dont look too bad, i suppose the spots do look like grains of salt. The most poorly of them has gone slightly pale in colour but has not gone silvery, still has its colour, the rest of them all have a nice bright colouring. Ive added some aquarium salt to the water. Havent got any...

    Sick Neons, Please Help

    I have got 10 neon tetra's in my tank. 2-3 look ill. One in particular has stopped shoaling, is breathing very rapidly and his tail looks frayed and a little white, he is just hovering in the same spot. The others that i believe could be ill have either a slight fraying of the tail or the odd...
