Hi In the last month have found two worm like creatures in my tank both dead. The corys seem to like picking them up and spitting them out. They are the colour of a commom earthworm about 25mm long with a flat plate on their heads like a lampreys (would take a picture but camera not good...

Have you tried breaking the surface with a spray bar or even a powerhead

Never seen a floating algae you sure it is not duckweed

and if you have plants with that amount of fish any amonia will be taken up by them

1260 is not a filter it is just a pump and is returning the water from the sump. The fluvals flow and return is just in the sump sorry

Can anybody help ?

Had a problem with my reef tank. Skin would peel off my hand if I kept them wet for to long. Would also make my fingers swell up and itch. Have the same effect when fishing using ragworm for bait.

Not that I am ready yet but I am thinking about stock for a South American Biotope have ordered the plants, but what fish would you stock and in what order would you put the fish in. Will not be putting first ones in until the tank has cycled and cant see it fully stocked until the end of the...

Changing from my reef in a 5ft and sump to Tropical Been emptied and refilled twice. Still showing on my hydrometer that I have 1.002 specific gravity and 2 salinity. Want to put the substrate in and start the RO water filling. No doubt it will drop again but will it be enough to keep fish and...
