    How Do Piranha Keepers Gravel Vac Their Tanks?

    piranhas won't attack you anyway, thats just a myth, there has never ever been a single report of a piranhas attacking a human, i used to keep a group of spotted red bellies (forgotten their scientific name) and i used to mess around with the gravel, move wood and rocks around, all sorts and...

    7 Foot Tank

    i can't be bothered putting any more lumps of cash into it right now to be honest, although my tank is right next to the conservatory, if i didn't want the overflow pipe to be seen i'd have to drill a hole straight through the wall, i doubt anyone would be too happy about that! i should have my...

    Moon Jellyfish

    most jelly fish are kept in round tanks because of the flow, they aren't self propelled, therefore in the wild use the current to travel, and find food,the round tanks make it easy to have a singular constant flow of water to keep them moving, hence why you have seen them in the round tanks, i...

    Black Sand.......to Use Or Not To Use?

    i have a black substrate in my big tank, its not quite sand but very fine gravel, around 1-2mm grains i'd say and i think it looks brilliant, definitely brings out the colours in the fish.

    7X2.5X2.5 Tank And All Equipment

    its a concrete floor so no need for extra support, obviously on a wooden floor you'd have to reinforce the joists, you got to remember 1 litre of water weighs kilogram, thats over a ton just in water, the tank weighs over 250 kg, so i'd hazard a guess at 1.5 ton at least as an overall weight. a...

    7 Foot Tank

    sand is probably best, but in the wild they would live with a mud substrate, so short of that, no one will re-create whats best for them, i did have sand until i had the sump and it all got sucked over when the rays wafted it about, this grave is quite fine and the rays still bury in it so its...
