That is strange, makes you wonder how these things are made! I ve decided the best way to determine which colour it matches is to test when you have a houseful and hold a vote! Beginning to get the hang of it think, I keep expecting to get this ammonia and nitrite peak but both at 0 and have...

Hi, I'm using API saltwater master test kit. Do you know if it's any good?

Tested ammonia, nitrate, nitrite and ph today. To be honest I'm not really sure how to get an accurate reading, none of the colours seem to correspond to the cards in test pack. It seems to be fairly subjective as to which colour it matches, if any!

Added another 5 kilos of rock, looks better now I think. more pics Is there enough space at the back for water flow?

I don't mind bossy! just grateful for advice. There was 7.5 kilos in pics I ve put on, I bought another 5 kilos today and really pleased with how it looks now. I ll put more pics on asap.

Thanks Morri! Nice to have someone who knows what they re talking about! I meant the circulation pump, its difficult to know where to start to be honest! Just had a look on ebay and found the koralia 1600 at what seems like a fairly reasonable price. Do you think it matters what type of glue I...

Hi everyone, I'm totally new to keeping marine fish so apologies if I don't make sense! I picked my tank up last night(orca TL550) and so far have just put it in position. I ve read in a few places that I ll more than likely need to add a powerhead as the one supplied on tank isn't up to the...
