Hi guys, I'm currently getting everything ready to set up my new 6x2x2 tank, was wondering if anyone had any lighting recommendations? Also been thinkong about getting some of the blue 'moon' lightd. Any thoughts? Cheers :)

It's going to take me a while to get everything ready, as I'm 18 & with no job aha :/ . But everything will be updated as I go, I'm very keen for my pleco's particularly to grow bigger! I just need to find somewhere to buy bulk fish pebbles cheap!

L168 plecos not 169 sorry typo

Here are a few photo's of it all cleaned up! Now I need to remove all the silicone from where the glass is missing so I can replace it, & from around the sump fittings as they also need to be redon; if I end up going with a sump that is, other wise I'll fill them with something. Will post more...

Good idea, i'll look into it :)

I don't really know anything about sumps but i have heard a lot of people use them

I'm upgrading from my 4 footer to this huge 6'2'2' tank & thought I'd made a thread about it. I bought this tank with an Ehiem 2217, lots of ornaments, all lids, chemicals etc for $200 (Early christmas present from my dad) which I thought was pretty good, so I have a bit of money to put into...

Oh hahah thanks for the correction, I'm used to working with litres :P Thanks for the replies, BiggTexx - what do you mean by "large bio-wheel" ? I'm not very good with all the terminology yet hahah I've got a few cannisters already, would one of them/a combination of them work? I have: Aqua One...

Hey, not sure if I'm posting in the right part so please direct me if I'm wrong I recently bought a 6'2'2' tank, was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for filtration ? Cheers

My two 5cm roughly plecos I was told are butterfly-clown's or L104, & a 3cm L333, reckon they'd be right?

Thanks a lot, I appreciate the detail of your reply. That's what I thought too, do you think the pleco's will be the same once they grow ? I have another tank I can put him in for a few days until I figure out where he's going to go

It's like lots of little rips close together on his underside fin, little lashes, same thing on one of his little side fin's aswell from last night. I should add that this must go on at night as I never see him getting attacked when lights are on

Hi there, I've never posted anything on here before so please bare with me I have a 'gold' ghost knife with beautiful markings, but something in my tank has started attacking it. My tank is 4' & currently has about 140L of water in it, the cannister filter is an Aqua One nautilus 1400, there is...

All fish are under 10cms at the moment, thanks for your reply. I know that I will need much larger tanks as they grow, but I more meant just until they grow more. They are 4 by 2 by 2, I have three that size What/if any fish could go with the ghost knives & elephant nose? & does that mean the...

I have a 4ft tropical fish tank with live plants, & quite a variety of fish. Need advice on what fish need to be seperated to different tanks (size, temperature, temperament) All fish get along currently, everything is going very well, although I know when my fish grow bigger they will not work...
