Yohoo . thank you guys and gals for warm welcome. Is this a worldwide forum or a UK/US one?
Just added a few plants in the globe and letting the nitrogen cycle rip... trying to speed up the nitrogen cycle by using the cotton/felt from some potted plants as seeders for the nitrosomas- hope that there is no disease in the felt though. I am willing to take the risk there is no fish in the orb now.
I will probably add 2-3 guppies in a week's time.
Special hello to Catangar- fellow somerset dude.
BTW Catangar where do you buy yo fishes?
Jiro

hi m8 im a "newbie" too.started about 6 weeks ago.
Im in lockleaze and ive got most of my fish from "Almondsbury garden centre".
A little bit more expensive than the rest,but the staff in there really seem to know their "stuff" which is helpfull and reassuring to us newbies.

to all the newbies. koujiro, this is a worldwide forum, but most of the members are from the uk, the usa or canada (or is canada part of the usa...??). And I don't think there will be any disease in the felt
