My interpet triplus bulb is pinkish and my daylight plus has a green tint

Ive got a few chequar barbs and a couple of red banded barbs with a male beta.......with no probs, but both species of barbs are small and peaceful. Definately not tiger barbs or cherry's etc. Also I would have said tank size matters, Ive got a 40uk gallon tank thats fairly heavlily planted with...

Im on episode 19 of series 2 dloaded :)

I put my sugar straight in to the 1st fins. Fill to a couple of cm with look warm water ( I reckon colder is better than too hot cause that kills the yeast) Add about 3/4 teaspoon of allisons dried active yeast Add about 1/2 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda. Stir it all together with a chop stick...

Pica as requested guys First full tank shot Left handside close up Middle Close up left handside close up

Yup that is correct, its a digi themometer. Thanks for the comments guys, I'll try and get you the pics you wanted later :)

Just a wee update pic. Vallis is still growning like crazy. Got a couple of runners appeared at the front right of the tank now which are showing very good growth.

I have two nutrafins units running in my tank now and leave them bubbling away 24/7 and dont seem to have encountered any problems so far.

I got a full kit on ebay for £8.50, had a wee bit missing that I manged to fix ok so that it still works......glad you got your ladder prob sorted though m8

Here are my four back of left shoulder Above left ankle Lower back Top of left arm

If you are using the sachets supplied with the kit you may never see any bubbles. I gave up with them and made my own yeast mix......works a lot better, I get bubbles in under 2 hrs every time now

Id say that bubble ladder wont work correctly Luke as the bubbles need to travel up that part of the plastic......Hopefully they will send you out a replacement one. Tank is looking good BTW :D

Here is a pic of my Co2 setup beside my Eheim 2224 Professional external filter. I forgot to say Luke, make sure you fit a non return valve inbetween your co2 canister and the ladder. Mine are fitted pretty near the canisters, this stops water syhponing back down the airline.

I didnt have any joy with them Luke, but give them a try. I set my kit up at first and left it over 12 hours and didnt get any bubbles at all. Ditched the mix and started again with another set of sachets.......12 hours later nothing, went and bought some yeast, stuck some of that in and had...

I Just found some of the twisted wood recently in my LFS in Edinburgh, think it adds an interesting look to the aquascape, kind of makes it more natural IMO. When I counted how many bubbles I wa getting with the co2 ladder I counted them leaving the airline at the bottom. (Dont know if this is...

I just got mine from my LFS :)

Yeah its the one up to 75 litres, so as of yesterday I have two bubbling away.

Vallis runner

Nutrafin bubble wall (two units together)

Not really just now, just letting things settle down with the higher co2 output.....noticed some valis runners that have come right to the front of the tank with new growth on them, think i might be overrun with valis soon :D.

A wee update on my tank. A couple of benefical changes to the tank this week. Finally got the second nutrafin co2 kit that I won on ebay delivered. However the small bit that directs the co2 bubbles up the bubble ladder was missing and a bit of plastic on the ladder itself was broken. Lucky the...

Mine do that too, its because they are really meant obe kept in shoals. Ive only got two aswell. The bigger one usually starts on the smaller one. Never do each other any damage....think its a dominance thing :)

Just a couple of new pics. Not much been happening, i'm waiting on a second nutrafin co2 kit to be delivered that i won on ebay. Hoping that this will give me a better CO2 output for the size of my tank.
