So as long as i dont get outbid....the pretty fishies will be mine!

There may be 2 new fish coming, i havent fully decided yet, they are expensive as lol I have until tomorrow to make a decision :)     Tonight i gave the tank a trim and general clean up, tomorrow the tank will get a 90%WC and a canister clean, just incase i do decide to get these beauties!

Thor & Loki are doing great, love these little guys.   Currently they are getting 4-5 feeds a day. They are certainly not in the least shy lol

The girls planted tank...all are hiding as the lights had just come on lol. I'll be adding more girls when I can

So i did a 90% WC on this tank tonight (i truely dislike the tannin look!), trimmed plants and a general clean up. I havent trimmed the moss, will see how it looks tomorrow when tank has settled.   I noticed i have got guppy/endler fry EVERYWHERE! Will cull (feed to oscars) when the numbers get...

50%WC done on this tank today.....pumping the food in causes more to...err...come out so to speak lol   They obviously did not like the pellets i was feeding them lol So now changed to a larger pellet, and they can fit it in no probs, they sure have a big gob for a little fish lol

You know, they dont always do that. all oscars i have had have been in scaped tanks, with both real and fake plants with no probs

They are cute as!   Yes they are both long finned. Speaking of fins, i know they are very young, but going by fin shape, i think Thor maybe female lol Time will tell, not keen on venting them to be sure lol

Thor   Loki   Their current home

Not a starter, blown a tube.....so gotta head out and get a new one!

So i got 2 new fish today.....currently settling in. These are destined for the new tank i have coming. They is such cute babies, i havent owned these for ages and not this particular kind ever.   Once i get the light fixed (replace starter, which i am heading to do after i get off here lol)...

I am seriously thinking of putting 3-4 discus in here as a centerpiece, just gotta save the pennies lol

I havent seen the khulis since they went in lol   There are no longer any dwarf gouramis in here, all have now passed away, lost the last one yesterday. No physical signs on them, i personally think they were just at the end of their days :(

Maintenance, is just water changes amd plant trimming/replanting. No CO2 or fertz. Lighting is 3x 4ft T5s   Thank you....

So the new neons are in, as are the khulis (which i probably wont see again lol)   Also added, some pretty guppies, a molly, a golly and a few more cories   Sadly i did lose one of the gouramis, the one that was badly beaten by the rainbows :(

The tank looks awesome   Life happens...we all get quiet stages. Great to see you back!

Yay, glad to see you here!!   Gorgeous betta!

Rainbows got banished, they were not playing nice with either the plants or the other fish.....some of the fish have been bullied very badly, 1 of the gouramis may not recover, but hopefully now the rainbows are out he will come good, poor fella   Updated pic     *note: since the rainbows have...

The canister and HOB should be fairly decent flow....but i will probably add either powerheads or wavemakers as well

I had to buy it online :)   The eat them....i went from hundreds (500+) to 30. I was told they are harmless, they most assuredly arent

So the HOB arrived and the MarinePure....speedy service that was!   I will be hitting the marinepure with a hammer to make it smaller so it will fit in the canister trays. Should be fun lol   I've decided i am going to buy a skimmer, i have one in mind and will purchase it as soon as i have the...

I just bought the No Planaria, it will last you for ages, very handy to have

Damselfly larva   Looks like planaria to me.....they just appear, usually if the tank has an excess of food. I would NOT trust them with shrimp. I would be getting rid of them pronto...buy "No Planaria" it is safe to use with shrimp, providing you follow directions

I'm wanting a reef with some clowns, other than that i havent thought to much. Mainly corals though   The canister will be there to run the chiller, it will only have MarinePure in it....

The newer 3ft is now out in the pool room, i have scraped the sides and back to get all the old paint off as it was in really bad nick...now i gotta decide to repaint it black/blue or some other colour........hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm   The ranchu are now in their tank....i'll be doing a large WC on the...

The betta sorority is in the custom 2ft, need a bit of a scape, but they are in there lol   The 2.5ft tank is on the 2nd tier and warming up ready for the ranchu to move in, it is running sponge filters. The new 2.5ft is now on the 1st tier, not filled, as i think i will reseal it before i use...

So far The 2 tricolour telescopes and the panda have moved into their own 2.6ft tank Oh and i think i have decided not to use the new 3ft for marine, but rather the old 3ft i have here. The new 3ft isnt very wide and i want to have some scope to put live rock in and not have it crammed up...

So today is WC day, and i am also going to finally empty and clean out all the empty tanks i now have. Once they are all cleaned i can then work out who is going where. I also need to level a 2 tiered stand i have, notice it is leaning to the back and slightly to one end, frustrating!   Finally...

If the fish continually are getting Ich, then that makes me think that the water may not be as perfect as you think it is. Tank stats please?  

Ermmm i dont think so lol   So the order i did today is already at the post office waiting to be sent....awesome!   Over the next few weeks i think i will order the salt from the same place. Once the salt is here, i'll get some water and get the tank wet, then grab some live rock to get the...

Yep, gonna dip my toes into the dark side lol   Slowly getting things together   Tank - Havent fully decided on using the 2.6ft or the 3ft yet. So it will be either 130 or 140 litres FIlter - Canister and HOB Heater - 150W Chiller - I know its big enough, cant remember brand lol   Ordering HOB...

So the new 3ft is in....phew what an effort darn thing is 50cm high lol....thinking this one will be my reef tank and i can hang HOBs much easier as it has no support bar in the way, and the 3ft lights i have will cover the top fully....I gotta give it a good clean and leak test it....

OMG stop me, i just bought another 3ft tank!   So gonna sell off any tanks (other than the custom 2ft) that are 2ft and under   Jeepers....gotta try and sneak this one in lol

Thanks.   I am really happy how its turned out

Wanna see what you get if you merge this tank..... .........into this tank well, here it is

The 4ft is well planted enough the shrimp will breed up.....any real nice red ones will be taken out and kept for a breeding program i wanna try

The planted 2.5ft is no more.....all has been moved into the 4ft   The poor neons and cardinals...rainbows were like sharks lol All schooled up now and the rainbows have finally realised i wasnt putting them in for them to eat lol. The cherry shrimp arent as stupid as the tetras, they headed for...
