    Air Pumps And Stones?

    Hi, I ended up getting an air pump yesterday and so far (touch wood) it seems to have done enough to make the fish behave "normally" again. Even though it's a 170L tank i got one suitable for a 100-120L and situated the air stone in the furthest corner from the internal. That was were we...

    Acting Funny....

    Morning, Just a quick one. Honest! My tank has been on the go since the beginning of Feb, so whilst it isn't the most mature one around it isn't spanking new. I tested all the levels about 3weeks ago because the water went really cloudy overnight almost, and they were all fine. So i did a...

    Cleaning Gravel

    You can get gravel cleaners. You can get battery operated ones or the cheaper option is to get the ones that you just simply "jiggle" in the water to get a syphon action going. I use the manual one and have never had any problems. You can pick them up from around a fiver from most pet shops...

    Flippin Algae!

    Hiya, I have 6 plants, 5 look good but my Red Tail Shark has taken a liking to 1 in particular, but i have left in situ cos it keeps sprouting new bits. I have lighting, it gets switched on around 8am, then i turn it off at bedtime, usually around 10/11pm. I was leaving it off during the day...
