Has anyone used this? & did you leave the carbon in the filter? or did you take it out? Im confused as i have read most people take their carbon out & i have read the back of the box says filterproof .... what do i do?

Ok, ive found out how much to use. Now i need to be sure about leaving the carbon in as i have read many people take it out, yet on the box it states filterproof .... what do i do .... risk leaving the carbon in?

Im off to my LFS in a bit to buy some API ich treatment. Im just a little worried about the plants & frogs. I would assume the plants would be ok whilst treating with this but are the african dwarf frogs? will they have to be sparated?

Yes, i added all the plants a couple of weeks ago, thats when i also added the 2 african dwarf frogs. Does the anti white spot reatment affect the plants & frogs?

Ive chased the little #29### round the tank & taken 30 pictures, this was the best one i could get .... im really worried now, ive had the tank a year now & never had this before ... what do i do?

Apart from the mistakes with the wrong plants i bought, is the set up good enough for the right plants?

Thanks! .... Yeah that is a waste of money then :angry: , ironic!. They never told me it wasnt suitable to be fully submersed as they were submersed when i bought them.

I Have had this aquarium fo a year now ... http://www.aquavistauk.co.uk/panoramicpage.html In the past i havent had much success on keeping various plants but yesterday i went on a spending spree for new plants at my LFS. I have also bought root tabs & plantamin to boost this attempt. Already i...

Ill add better pics up a soon as my battery recharges ... watch this space

Are root tabs any good? what do you guys use? Im currently using silca sand & they are getting 6 hours of light. In the past with other plants i had it set to 8 hours, but i had loads of algae so i reduced it.

I dont know what they are called ... maybe you could tell me ? ive added a pic below

Ive read the link as advised but it doesnt tell me what food to use. Since planting them yesterday i have noticed the edges have started to crinkle & i already have Co2

I went on a mad one yesterday @ my local fish store & spent all my money on plants. Can anyone advise me on the best way to keep them looking lush? Ive bought some root tabs & some plantamin but im not sure if this is all i need. I should have asked at the store but i suppose i was to excited...

Ive got a vertical blade but its not doing anything ... just scraping over the greasy smears. I was hoping there was a better liquified soloution to use

Ive used the blade to take the top layer off but i would rather avoid using more than i have to as ive scrathed the tank in areas.

Ive had to remove my background picture, which was positioned inside the tank & sealed to the back. I now have a mirror in the background but its covered with the sealant i used. I have scraped the thick layer off but i was still left with ugly smear marks so i tried using white spirits & nail...

Hi guys! My guppy has given birth & i have placed 10 of her fry in a small hatchery box. Does the box have to be placed at the top of the tank? & is there anything i can put in the box for the fry to hide? as it does look a little boring in there. Thankyou

I have been given a small 25 litre tank & im currently looking for a heater & light but i dont know what type i need. Can anyone help me?

I asked because i have ordered another one, & with that i was thinking if storing water in advance would it be necessary for the chlorinator.

So is it advisable?

How long would you suggest? or how long do you give it? I dont have a spare pump, so i would have to do it the basic way

I have recently got my hands on a 50litre container & i have read somewhere that if you store tap water for over 24hrs, there is no need for a dechlorinator. How true is this? & is it common to do it this way? Thanks

I seem to keep getting yellow spikes growing up the back of my aquarium, does anyone know what it is? as it keeps coming back up. My stats are good
