Ahh I didn't see this now I'm to late to enter :/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wasn't being sarcastic at you it was at the plethora of incorrect information online Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's not surprising I made a mistake Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Also any tips for snails! There driving me nuts! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm UK so petco and aquabid aren't options for me and LFS don't take fish. I'll stick them online see if anyone will take but I tried that when I first got them and no takers. What are good tank makes for the betta. Something similar in size and activity to the minnows Sent from my iPhone...

He doesn't bounce off the walls he's just a nosey bugger who winds the dog up. And if I was to retank I wouldn't put the together again but it's a bit late now and I have said everything seems to be going well. Feeding fine pooping fine schooling/playing fine water levels are good (except for...

And again I now know I should of cycled and didn't lesson learnt not a mistake that will be repeated. For future reference the last few comments haven't been sarcastic and have been constructive and I thank you Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes the ammonia was high and I realised afterwards that it was way to high which is probably what caused the death which made me feel like **** at the time, I now know that and the weekly changes are keeping it right down and no issues since. On the temperament side of things I generalised...

And if you can't tell from temperament again I apologise I assumed and active and inquisitive generally meant healthy fish. And a lazy/lethargic fish meant something was wrong Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had the one death which was about 2 days after getting them and there was no sign of damage to the body (I forgot about that one and apologise) and there's a difference between sugar coating things and flat out sarcasm Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes that was suggested back when I did the tank we are currently set at 22.5c which is half a degree more than ideal for Minnows but there appears to of been no issues. You can't tell me half a degree is going to make the world of difference most smaller set ups will fluctuate more than that...

I didn't ignore your statement I said that according to where I got them from there fine in there. You can tell from the temperament if a fish is unhappy but when there swimming around extremely active/inquisitive that tends to apply that they are indeed fine. It probably was a minnow under...

There aren't any tetras in there and there's 10 wcmm and according to where I got them from there fine in there and they've been there for 4 months and there doing fine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Had to go LFS to stock up on food and some shrimps etc. So got a backing and some new silk plants for the little guys So many snails!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

By chemicals I mean dechlorinate stress coat etc not medications etc Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My first beta a few months down the line and he's doing "swimmingly" (pun completely intended!) He's got some friends in the form of white mountain minnows an assassin snail called Gary (I'm not ashamed) and some shrimp. They all get on fine and seem happy with there variety of toys from...

Been gone a while not had a chance to post. Spent a few weeks away as well with a "trusted" friend looking after them. I came home to the water being at 60%. I took half of that out and it was this colour! So after refilling and giving them every form of chemical I have to make happy fish...

Roger! Can't get bulb until the weekend anyway :s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So get another 15w bulb like that in white and some better fertiliser Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The 2 LEDs are £5 more than another white bulb. Which if there better I'm not worried about that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got like a 2ft gap between the floorboards and concrete Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey guys! I'm planning a big tank, 4ft by 4ft by 2ft. (240 gallon). Add a sump, stand, substrate and live rock (marine) that is well over 1t pushing 1.25t. Obviously the stand will be flat bottomed. Probably steel reinforced with a x bottom to distribute weight. My question is do you guys...

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B010T1RAWA/?tag= Will this be bright enough? Do I get 2 white or 1 blue one white? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's not been running long tbh. Less than a fortnight. So I need to find LEDs that will fit into my hood. No I haven't bothered vaccing the substrate yet, and I won't now! Cheers for the help guys! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It was the "best" LFS had any recommendations on U.K. Sites?im away for 3 days now so can't get any accurate numbers but I'll list what I can remember. Last ammonia check was 0.3 ppm followed by a 30% water change! Still cycling so nitrates and nitrites aren't right yet. Doing 30% every 2...

Tropical plant growth premium fertiliser Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This one and a blue one. For lighting. After the cull it's about a 50% loss was worse that I thought 2 rootsets binned and the rest trimmed Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This type.... Yes to ferts. No to co2. A betta 5 minnows and a couple of shrimp will check lamp wattage when home. 13 gallon Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey guys I have a few plants that seem to have dying/dead shoots in them. There are live shoots in the same rootset. Do I pull the dead stems out? Do I leave them to see if they recover? Also any guesses as to why they died? Cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Bad news! This morning all seemed well but got home this evening went to feed them and found a dead minnow [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] I have no idea why! Ammonia was at 0.5 when I came home so have now done a 30% water change but could that put him from fine to dead in 12 hours! Also a few...

Love your writing style makes t enjoyable to read! As well as all the hand tips as I'm looking to start a project in the summer! Can't wait for more! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This was the tank when I just got home everything seems to be settled and the water is crystal clear! Idk if the plants help or what but I've never had a tank this clear. Hit 0.5 ppm on ammonia and still unreading on the nitrate scale so did 30% water change, 15l bucket! with a dechlorinator...

I like him having an odd face :) gives him more personality I was just worried about the lil guy Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

See idk why I trust my LFS they always seem to give bad advice. But it was only a fiver for the gravel and water. And i checked all the levels when it was in and nothing was high Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Siphon and bucket ready and waiting! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oops. It was 0.25 ppm it's the first one on the chart which I thought was 1ppm [emoji85] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
