Nom Nom Nom Diatoms

Make sure you test the water before adding anything too it.

Also I would leave them alone. Try not too clear it up which is hard but the faster the grow and spread the sooner they use up the nutrients and quicker the clear up themselves.

U 3 are funny!

...........

Im the tortoise, I don't even have LR yet

lol, unlucky im getting 5kg tomorrow!
when will you get your rock? adding it all at once or over time like me?

 

[weezawoo]

30kg next weekend and the same guy will bring me the rest of his 50kg (so 20kg) when he has sold all his fish in his tank. Its only a 30min drive so I shouldn't have die off either *fingers crossed*

 

[MrLiam]

Thats alot of rock

Bet you get a few hitchikers and then its diatom time.

 

[weezawoo]

My system is 550l ish. So I originally wanted 40kg but he has 50kg and he is bringing me a 3ft tank free for my sump and also his CUC with the 2nd lot of rock, depending on how the cycle of the first lot goes. It is all fully mature so it is possible I have no cycle!

 

[MrLiam]

Join the no cycle club its fun

 

[fishy55599]

you must be rich!

 

[weezawoo]

Hopefully I will be joining that club soon heres to hoping!

 

[MrLiam]

Why must I be rich? My 6kg of LR only cost me £30.

 

[weezawoo]

Oh was that to me for gettig 50kg? haha I wondered why you wrote that fishy
I can assure you I am far from rich, but when its only £250 for 50kgs of LR with a free 200l tank and CUC crew thrown in who can resist

 

[MrLiam]
