exelent guide there scotty :)

i suppose you could try 6 to 8 silver tips , and maybe 6 harliquins as they seem to shoal together well they do in my tank :)

how many fry do you have ?

No problem simple to fit and thats on the highest setting :D

As promised pic's not very good tho took with mobile

you could also have a peace of glass mirror cut to size. or take a look here http://diyplastics.com/plasticmirrorproducts.htm hope this helps.

I have recived my cathodes this morning and fitted them into my light hood, just waiting till tonight to test these babys out :D Will post up pics later.

i have some silver tip tetras with my harliquins and they seem to shoal together and look kinda cool maybe you could try them.

wouldnt the strong uv output of the marine lighting damage cells on the fish ? and plants for that matter ?

i sure can mate theres a thread on here that has info thats where i got my idea from. once done i'll post up some pics i should get them on friday.

i will agree on that and also getting that tank supproted propely there must be a hell of a lot of extra stress on that. Poor fish, indeed!

ordered 2 blue cold cathodes from ebuyer see how it goes :D

just ordered myself 2 of these

ive found this on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MOON-LIGHTING-KIT-fo...1QQcmdZViewItem

do you think its worth getting a moonlight kit ? for my tank will it give the fish a more natual life rither than being sat in the dark over night ?

i have 3 going to buy 3 more tomorrow (well today) my 3 are bold as brass now they been in the tank for around 8 days now. give them time to settle inand they will pop out :) especilly at feeding time mine whizz out and gobble up the surplus food that hits the bottom of the tank :)

Thanx for the comments :D That lump of bogwood too me ages to find and i got it for only £5 i was so chuffed. as for the cabomba if it starts to declin i'll take it out and replace it with somthing else :D my daughters tank needs some plant life so i may put it in there only 27litre with 15w...

not sure i usually give a good 2-3 inch covering

this is a 2foot tank but rather deep it looks like a custom made tank to me lol, but for free i cant complain :) i'll grab a pic of how it looks now. 3 weeks in.

im not sure what plants they are where i bought them from havent got names attached to them :( i'll have a look and see if i can identify them all. Malayan Sword/Cryptocoryne Ciliata (cant tell the diffrence) Cabomba Caroliniana Green Cabomba Blyxa Aubertii or Soft rush (i think) Elodea Densa...

Would a total of 30watts lighting be good enough for a 28 uk gallon semi planted tank? i have 1x 18" 15W Arcadia Original Tropical Lamp and 1x 18" 15W Arcadia Fresh water lamp.

yes he has the virtical lines andthey are linked with a horizontal line also mid body as you can see, he's about 2inch in lengh. im just confused with the golden spots part of your post, hes golden allover apart from the chain like black markings. he also dosnt have the silvery purple spot's...

i didnt pay anything for him :D

on this site http://www.loaches.com/species-index/picto...er-body-striped his markings are exactly the same as the middle black and white picture. but on clicking that none of them look anything like him so frustrating :( thanx for the help tho. :)

it doesnt have the blueish tinged spots like the polka dot tho thats why im struggling to identify it. i thought that but his body isnt silver it is yellowish im thinking maybe a hibreed or somthing.

could someone please identify this loach sorry for the pic quality i have a crappy camera

More info here guys :D Was 5 miles from where i live the epicentre that is shook like mad here for about 15 seconds http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recent.../us2008nyae.php

thats good :D thanx ordered one of these babys for my tank http://www.swelluk.com/aquarium/aquarium-l...ter-t8-128.html

Hi, just wondering if anyone has used this company for your fish supplies? If so what are your thoughts on the service? many thanx Ric

lol yes i had to giggle at that :) poor thing i bought 3 of these very intresting creatures... mine hid because of my large angel. put him in another tank and haypresto there out and about.

i would say a 50% or even 75% water change and just keep doin regular ph tests

i wouldnt worrie m8 it may look as tho it isnt feeding but it will be :) only thing ya need to do is dont over feed in the hope you will see him eating :) fish are intellegent animals unfortunately some people think not but seriously ur fish will be eating :) and him being new to the tank he's...

there is a micro feed for fry not sure what its called tho sorry someone will be along soon to tell you :)
