    Catching Fish

    Have a look on YouTube for the bottle trap. It's still time consuming but is a lot less stressful for everyone and you don't destroy your tank in the process lol. When I credit I actuallytird string to it and sat back with a chair like i was out fishing, the fish are more willing to investigate...

    Who's Got/had/wants Black Sand?

    I really like my black sand. I find it's easier to clean and my fish stand out against it. Here's my tanks i've used it in: This is caribsea tahitian moon btw

    Buying Fish On-Line - Safe?

    Well then it's a 48l tank so a little bigger than 10g, I think 12? Not sure on the plant from the picture as it's kind of small. It should deffo be out of the pot but post a topic in the planted section and someone will help you with an ID. Yeah I actually swapped both of mine out for white...

    Eheim Gravel Vac Pro

    Yeah it'll suck up the sand and a lot easier than the marina one lol, you basically just do the same though, hover above the sand with it After i've used it, if i've sucked up a lot of sand i just put it all in a bowl and rinse it out in the tap a few times and put it back in the tank. The...

    How Do You Get Your Fry?

    You could try using a turkey baster? Or just remove them when they are bigger :P

    Filter Floss Or Filter Wool?

    And does anyone have any guesses as to whether one is more effective than the other? I guess it all depends on the density of what you get :/ The roll def. looks more convenient than the loose stuff

    Eheim Gravel Vac Pro

    Yes i went through my marina one very quickly after droping it in the tank twice, which come on, it should be able to handle! The overall shape of the eheim is much nicer. Plus you can, depending on the depth of your tank, use an end with no teeth or use the toothed (:P) one depending on your...

    Filter Floss Or Filter Wool?

    Hi ian, i'm talking about this stuff FLOSS vs. this stuff WOOL Hope that makes more sense Edit: however, I may not have been using the right words to differentiate between them?

    The Official "hey Lovelies" Thread

    That's a male veil tail and the female could just be stripey, you do get them that way...but it could be stress lines too. If you're worried ask in the betta section and post the picture. Are they in the same tank?

    The Official "hey Lovelies" Thread

    Ok, if you post the direct link, then you do have to use the insert image button on the forum text box. But if you use the img code from photobucket then you don't use the insert image button on the frum. :) make sense?

    The Official "hey Lovelies" Thread

    Lol fintastic if you copy the image code from photobucket, then you don't need to use the insert photo button on the forum. Just paste the photobucket code right into the text box ;)

    Filter Floss Or Filter Wool?

    I need to buy more fine filter media for my external. Should I get the floss (comes in a rolled sheet) or wool (which is the fluffy stuff in a bag)? If you want to explain why you made your choice please do so! Thanks!

    Are These Fish Easy To Keep I Have Too

    Some people are just never going to listen. He's got a ridiculous number of incompatible fish in an uncycled 90l tank. Every time he posts he lists different fish: gouramis, a pictus, tiger barbs, cherry barbs, an unknown plec, pakistani loach, red tail shark, some tetras and now these cichlids...

    Eheim Gravel Vac Pro

    I have the eheim one and i love it. It's a brilliant design and though i haven't had it for long the build of it would seem to lend itself to lasting me a long time. The impeller on it is run by a magnet much like some internal filters, this prevents the motor from burning out from bits getting...

    Setting Up A 6 Gallon Tank

    A betta OR 5 male endlers. You could add some shrimp or a large snail in with either of the above options. Yep, make sure you do a fishless cycle as suggested!

    The Official "hey Lovelies" Thread

    For the record, regarding lambs. They aren't baby sheep when you eat them they are a year old and look like fully adult sheep. What would be the point of trying to eat a little baby sheep? You'd get nothing off it! Stuffed my face with lamb curry last night OM NOM NOM!!!

    Bristlenose Catfish Help

    hmm...I wonder if you've got enough oxygen in your water. Does you filter outlet agitate the surface of your water?

    just household ammonia, looks like this :) Maybe they don't have it listed on their website, may just be an in-store thing

    Inverts And Betta

    Hmmm he sounds to be a very skittish betta. I do wonder if he's 100% healthy though as he shouldn't be getting stuck to the filter intake :/ if i remember corectly, you don't have a mega powerful filter for your tank right? Also, bettas that have been kept in very small tanks their whole lives...

    Buying Fish On-Line - Safe?

    The only way to find out is to get the tank filled with some dechlorinated water, add ammonia and test your levels the next day, good luck!

    Inverts And Betta

    Well do some reading up on the different kinds before doing anything I'm no expert so don't just take my word for it :) German blue rams are quite sensitive to water conditions so you'll want to check that you can provide the correct ones for them. Also I don't recommend the balloon rams, they...

    Help With Diy Tank Divider

    Hi guys, I'm reading up on putting a temporary divider in my tank. Could someone let me know if this is the stuff I need for the mesh? Tapestry Canvas

    Inverts And Betta

    lol well the dwarf cichlids like rams and apistos are pretty peaceful and if you only have one then you avoid aggression during spawning periods. Having said that, I've had a problem in my tank with my betta and rams and the betta has some nasty fin damage. I don't really know what happened...
  38. Alm0stAwesome

    Inverts And Betta

    The only thing I could suggest is maybe a dwarf cichlid of some kind? They tend to be bottom dwellers and aren't overly active fish.
  39. Alm0stAwesome

    Inverts And Betta

    There are other "calmer" tetras like neons and cardinals but there's still a risk that they will nip your betta :/ Harlequins are def. more chilled out than rummynoses though.
