Hi Rorie, I'll give ye a tenner for 22, no worries if you can get more on the bay, I'm going to Fraserburgh Tomis so will be passing ur way....:)

Hi Rorie, Hope your fish room is getting along. Have you got any more Kili's? How much for number 22? Paul

+1. Things that go bang are not always fun:)

Hi Peter, that looks like the regulator i recieved this morning. Is it the type your ment to screw to hand tightness? i tightened it up a little more with a stilsons. Do you have a needle valve? You will need one to control the flow of co2 to your glass diffuser. The regulator is not precise...

scrap that. Iv dead set on a new target. Im going to stock my tank with all Anubias type plants. and it shall be called Anubias Maximus

I have loads of sand to bring up the level. I might use root tabs if EI dosing is not enough. Ill judge it by the condition of the plants. Just waiting for regulator to be delivered. At the moment all my fish are sick. There was a film of oil on the waters surface. I don't know what it is. In...

Hey Rorie had a cracking time this eve. Superb setup. That Killie was a real treat to behold. top guy!

Just bought This regulator. Countdown to co2 injection! Picking up dry ferts tomorrow but gonna wait until the regulator arrives. When all is good to go I'll spend 50 quid on plants start proper updates.

I keep the temperature of the tank between 23 and 26 degrees. All depends on room temperature but t doesnt fluctuate much. Ah cool man. I wont be adding any other fish to the mix, i love corrys as they are exciting and turn my sand over constantly. I was just afraid that they may invade the...

Hey guys, Are Blue rams compatible with Bronze corys? I want to add a bit of colour to my tank without overstocking it. The tank is 70L and has 6 Bronze corys 1 small bristlenose Fluval 205 with a nano power head for flow. weekly 50% water changes The water parameters are always spot on...

That was me btw:) i like the first answer best, didnt even read the question:P

great to see natural behavior in the aquarium, some happy fish there

sweet tank dude.

I let some tap water sit at room temp for 24 hours as i always keep a 4 liter tub full for top ups between water changes. Tap water is blue and tank water is orange, When i do a high PH range test it turn up about ph8. Could it be the wood in my tank? i recieved it in a bundle of crap i got...

Try the hydor 900 power head. Cheap and efficient. I got one for 27 quid delivered online. Rorie is selling one in classifieds. Ask him what he will let it go for. Look forward to updates

Im hoping to get help and advice with my setup. Already some of you guys have had a hand in getting this tank to where it is now. But seriously if you are a beginner just spend HOURS going through forums and articles and you will unlock a world of awesome. I started with a fluval adge...

Nice tank dude. Would you consider a small powerhead in there to create more flow. Your plants will appreciate it

The inlet to the pump works on the syphon effect, as water is pumped out water is drawn in so there usually won't be vibration at this end although the same vibration should be felt all over. The nuts on my 205 aren't that tight. Just tighten it up and see if you can pull the rubber ends off...

cutting the leaves off most likely wont give you a new plant. You will have more success if you split the Rhizome..

All set. good luck with the move.

Numer 3 for the amount of work required to put a tank that size together. Its obviously taken a lot of man hours and dedication to get it looking so natural and full. There arent many tanks of that size in the country that look so well. Excellent work.

Yep thats the key. The filter houses all the microbiology that breaks waste down in the water. Keep that in a bucket of aquarium water or if its an external leave it full when you disconnect it. Its all about the filter:P

Brilliant dude

Finally finished the stand!!!! spent all last night moving and cleaning stuff. When i originally set the tank up on the coffee table i put it facing the wrong way around and there was a big scratch on the glass annoying me the past 6 months. Its the right way round now with perfect optiwhite...

Cheers man Iv just finished painting the stand and iv put doors on and all. Made a rookie mistake by painting with the doors on. will now have to spend a bit of time scraping the paint off the brazz hinges but now i know for next time, and there will be a next time if i have my way:) One...

Ill post a few pics of my reg later when i get off work, Give you an idea of what you need.

ya need to buy a couple of fittings and a needle valve. i bought a swagelock needle valve. A bit pricey but top quality

cheers man, i tried to keep it basic but cutting MDF is hard without proper saws. The homebase near me doesnt do board cutting so i was using a hand saw and chairs to make all the cuts then sanding and planing to get straight edges. pain in the bum but a few manly days were had with a pencil...

Yeah dude, Not much has changed since my last post. I added Red root floater which i got from user frothhelmet. Looks nice and is starting to sprout new leaves every day. For the last two weeks iv been battling white spot. I lost two corys and a guppy but i think iv knocked it on the head. Im...

Nice. Can't wait to get it

Hi Jay, How's that powerhead working out for you? After reading the thread again i decided to buy it. Ordered it this morning so should be here soon.. just wanted your take as my tank is the same size as yours. cheers paul

Do a DIY Co2 search in forums. Lots of info already available.

A pike? We need pictures!!!!:)

Hey man, Iv spent the last three months gathering parts and information about C02. Best thing is to research and read loads of threads on C02. This way you will become familure with parts and the best way to utilise the gas. I myslef was clueless but iv set mine up for about 80 quid. That...

#40## night shifts getting in the way of tank gazing!! Anyway thanks to frothhelmet iv got some lovely red root floater now. Fecking dlighted! Cheers dude, Me thinks ill still go ahead with the C02 for stability. iv noticed alot of brown algae on the leaves but iv reduced the photoperiod and...
