    5 ft Malawi Tank -

    Update 9th November 2020 Had a bit of a move round last night when i tried out Project Flipper and did a big 50% water change. Parameters are stable but had a bit of an ammonia spike - i think due to disturbing the gravel a bit more than i planned to. Ive bought a fancy electric gravel...

    Let’s share some positive feelings about 2020.

    Well for a lot of people they may think this is a weird thing to share but for me it’s positive. I spent just over 2 years in custody and got out in March this year. Whilst there I got clean, did a 2nd BSc (this one in Maths). Taught about 100 people to read and write and now I feel a lot more...

    Exactly. Now when I say this people may take a step away.. there’s a thread about why you started this hobby and I enjoy it as it helps me with some ‘ addiction‘ problems. I recently spent 2.5 years in custody - people find out and cross the road etc. Whilst there I did a maths BSc and taught...

I...

    Over the back or canister filter?

    +1 to previous post, algae growth will be done to one of the issues mentioned. Work through them and you’ll see a change. I always use external filters. Internals look out of place and take up space and i like a clean look of the cabinet and tank. I have a eheim classic 600 (1000 LPH) it’s a...

    You get more money from a lifelong customer than someone who buys say that catfish and then loses it. I go to the same LFS for 25 years, they helped me out to start off in the hobby and now I’m putting 2 grand tank orders with them ..

    That’s it, the best LFS would prefer to lose a sale than sell to someone not prepared. I used to have a couple of marine tanks (Fowlr) with a snowflake eel and that’s it.

    I think the best anyone should do is research what the fish needs and provide it then try to replicate the natural environment as closely as possible. I put this fella in yesterday and I haven’t had the tv on since and I’ve been dreaming around so as not to scare him till he settles in,

    If school want you to build it from scratch then look at this site https://makezine.com/projects/scratch-built-rc-car/ the only thing you can’t realistically make is the transmitter or receiver you would have to designs build pcb’s and there’s legal stuff around using various radio bands
