ok, thanks for the info

not alarmed at all, would prefer it if that wasn't the case though, lol

if i had female and male livebearers in the same tank but seperated using a tank divider, is there any chance that a female may still become pregnant?

im not bothered about the amount too much. i'd hope to sell them to someone else rather than a store. its just finding someone to take them.

oh, and hi littleme1969, i sent you a message ages ago about your three joined tanks. thankyou for getting back to me. i think they look amazing.

so, it doesn't really matter about adding any sort of fertile substrate? just as long as there is a few inches of sand and i use food tabs if the plants need them.

what would i need? and what would i need to do? to set up a planted tank using sand?

what is "fullers earth"??

Im going to set up a live planted tank, and was going to use sand as my substrate. do i need to ad anything to the sand to aid the plants? I also read somewhere that someone used a clay mixture under their sand, what was this for? and why's is it a good idea? thanx

everythings ok then. thanks for the help

ah, i see. i'll just have to ask them to add more water.

i was just wondering because there is a store near to where i work, but i only have time to visit it on my lunch, and was wondering if the plants would be ok for about 5 hours till i got home.

when you buy plants from an lfs they put them in plastic bags. how long can they live in these bags?

i haven't had any problem with brown algae, but i am in the middle of an algae bloom and my tank water is completely green.

what lighting would be best? i.e. what product is the best (e.g. 30W AQUA-GLO) i want a bright aquarium without any discolouration (i know some lights make everything look yellowish) the light must be good for plants but not to the point where they will grow like fury. and it must not bother the...

my tank size is: 100cm(39")long x 40cm(16")wide x 45cm(18")deep my lighting is: 1 x AQUA-GLO 36" fluorescent tube 30W 18,000K 1 x SUN-GLO 36" fluorescent tube 30W 4,200K technically my tank is 40 (uk) gallons but probably only contains about 35 (uk) gallons of water which is about 42 (us)...

can anyone tell me of any nice plants that are easy to look after but dont grow too fast?

also, as far as im aware objects weight less in water than they do out. due to the force of the water acting upwards.

this is what im going to try to do. and I need the perspex to divide the two substrates to stop them mixing.

if the sand was to pass onto the gravelled area it wouldn't be too hard to just use a syphon and suck the sand off then replace it on the sand area. and if the gravel was to get over the other side id just pick it out myself.

thanx, i dont want to go killing any fish i might get, with chemicals and toxins i cant detect.

Are most household plastics ok for use in an aquarium? im asking this because i have a large sheet which i believe is perspex that im going to cut up and use as a divider between the gravel in my tank and sand (not in the tank yet). Anyone got any suggestions or opinions?

cant anyone help me?

i've recently took my filter out of my tank and its stood in a bucket of old tank water. How long will the bacteria live like this?

i've never had fish in the tank, ive had it about 9 weeks. My ammonia source was bottled ammonia (88% water 12% ammonia)

yes the bucket is clean, i bought it and it hasn't been used for anything else.

I've just took all the water out of my (fishless) 40 gallon. Put the filter heater and plastic plants in a bucket of old tank water. I did this because i was wanting to put something under my stand to level it out a bit, and also because i have ammonia readings even though i havn't added any...

I have read that Tetra's are the natural prey of Angel-fish in the wild. But, i have also read that some people haven't had any problems keeping them both together. I suppose it is all dependent on the personalities of the fish. Also, as corrosive said Angel-fish do require taller tanks of...
