Why did you join your two bottles? I ran both mine into the water bottle then one line from that to the tank.

Just get a 182 and stop messing about! You'll never see a fancy plec in the gt tank.

Seen a few people joining the two bottles with a T piece so thought it must work, saved messing around drilling more holes too.
Going to remake it like you've just mentioned though, if it doesn't work then i'm going to rage quit

I've got some annoying brown algae growing all over my rocks again, really not sure what's causing it though
Will get a picture up of it later on today

 

[minnnt]

If its diatoms then a 182 will clear it.

 

[Proxo]

LOL , If my apisto breed you're welcome to come and get some fry and drop off an L182
Here's the algae problem, must be something i'm doing wrong as it's come back once again

Lights on for roughly 6 hours, next to no sun light hits the tank.

 

[minnnt]

You're welcome to come and pick a 182 up too

Looks like diatoms, it will be because you have recently altered the tank. A BN of any description will clear it up as will Otocinclus.

too far away mate
Looked into diatoms last scape and most said it'd eventually go away, it just destroyed my tank though
Anything that i can do myself to maybe get rid of it?

My '4th' panda cory from my hospital tank isn't looking good , if i drop to 3 cory it'll be rehome time and pleco time

 

[minnnt]

Elbow grease? lol. Seachem Purigen will keep it at bay and will keep your water crystal clear too.

Sorry to hear about your Panda.

 

[Proxo]

I've actually been looking into that Seachem Purigen, recharging part looks like it's going to mess with my head though.
You're going to get spammed with questions when i get some hahaa!

Any kind of snails that would work?

 

[minnnt]

Apple snails would probably shift it along with Pink Ramshorns. PM frothelmet, he has some Pinks. check they would eat it though first.

Or.... JUST BUY A BABY BN!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't put nothing in that'll scare the girlfriend as the tank is right next to the bed
Pink snails could win her over though

Alright, gonna do some price checks with my LFS on a few plecs

What about when she rolls over the other way?

The amount of sugar i've wasted lately means i'm going to have to cut down on the coffee though
