Great result!

Ideally I would add all the UKAPS members to this list too (I've picked all the UK ones as we are UK based) as we are a worldwide community but as I've not been on here for a while I have lost track of who is who. If someone wants to pick out the UKAPS members from the list and add them on here...

Hi All, The results are out as I'm sure many of you are aware. The UK entries and rank: 81 - Pavol Kulanda 483 - George Farmer 681 - Konrad Michalski 739 - James Starr-Marshall 805 - Stephen Rhodes 822 - Dorin-Florian Romaniuc 1087 - Piotr Kwiatkowski 1116 - Michael Gittins 1172 - Jay Keegan...

Hi! Welcome to UKAPS! [emoji106]

Having moved about 8 months ago now I've finally got round to setting up another tank. I pretty much only have one space for it and that is in the fireplace. The space itself has dictated many of my choices like tank, stand and filter. I would like to have got an Aquascaper 600 to benefit from...

I used Panacur as well and followed Darrel's dosing calculation here: https://www.ukaps.org/forum/threads/hydra-removal.29790/

Hi! Welcome to the forum! [emoji4]

Looking forward to see this progress. ADA tanks are expensive but they are nice too. I just bought a 60P and will be setting it up shortly.

Welcome back. I need a Reg soon and have been hoping the site would be back up.

A few but I have not had time to put them together. Will try and get a list together. [emoji4]

Just 6 from the UK this year. George Farmer - 393 David Pierce - 611 Stephen Rhodes - 758 Alexea Tonge - 917 Ivana Bielikova - 1140 Mike Genna - 1269

I get the same. Not a positive sign. [emoji15]

Personally I would use a complete fert like Neutro+ rather than Neutro T but having said that, if the tank is doing well why change it?

Hi! Welcome to UKAPS! :wave:

Hey, are you in the UK? Has the tree flowered? If so you should see signs of the fruit beginning to develop where the flowers were.

Looks good! Reminds me of THIS one.

Have a look HERE.

Hi All, A few months ago I set up a 19l P@H Aquarium to house a few snails for my 3 year old son who is fascinated with them. Back in Feb I had to move so the tank also became home for some RCS and my one remaining CRS from my other shrimp tank. The tank was thrown together with bits and...

I do what you have already done. Spray with soapy water. Just stay on top of it. You can buy sticky strips to go around the base of the tree.

Strange, seems ok for me. Search Tesco for: Tesco Low Dust Cat Litter 10L

Packaging has changed but they still do it: LINK

Just to put a close to this thread. Both tanks were taken down in Feb due to moving house. I have a shrimp tank and 1 scapers tank running currently. Will start a thread about those at some point soon...

Hi Chris! Welcome to UKAPS! :wave:

Looks great!

What size of aquarium are you looking to use? Tropica or ADA substrate will both do a great job.

I would look to move the drop checker nearer to the substrate and see how it reads. I suspect the issue lies with circulation and the CO2/nutrients not getting to the plants. I would look to adjust the output from the filter to point away from the surface (which is most likely speeding up the...

Hi! I'm also from Portsmouth although I currently live in Fareham.

I tried it with a normal plug and it worked. Sadly I sold it before I could get any extended use out of it.

Hi! Welcome to UKAPS!

Hi! Welcome to UKAPS! Looking forward to the upcoming project.

The tanks are going well. Very slow growth but that is to be expected. I am having to move at the end of this month so the Betta tank is coming down and maybe the shrimp tank too until I can be sure where they will be going at the new address. The filters do a good job but they are not being...

No need to add it as there is plenty (400ppm) in the atmosphere anyway.

Hi Shane! Looking forward to the progression.

If you take a look at THIS site and identify the algae you had it will give you a good idea of what the problem was. If you can also list things like tank/lighting/filter specs, cleaning regime, fert dosing regime etc it will help identify where it may have been going wrong.

Hi Shane! Welcome to UKAPS!!

Hi Andrew, there are quite a few on here that understand the science they have just determined that in the main it is not something to get too technical over as 'most' lights do the job we need them for. I understand your request for a moonlight that does not stimulate growth but as Mark put it...

Hi Welcome to UKAPS! :wave:

Hi Paul! Welcome to UKAPS! :wave:

Personally I follow THIS

Me! In the Portsmouth Guildhall no less!

I echo what Tim said. Gonna have to take a road trip up there one day. [emoji4]

The Shrimp tank. Also unedited. [emoji4]

A video of the Betta tank. Completed unedited so apologies in advance! [emoji4]

Hi! Welcome to UKAPS! :wave:

Added some Lilaeopsis:

Don't expect them too either. I have used oak leaves a lot and they release hardly any tannins (if any at all). They do take ages to break down as well which I like. If you want a nice tint then alder cones work well. Indian almond leaves also do a great job.

Any update on a video for this?

Hi! Welcome to UKAPS! :wave:

I would say your education is of to a good start! It looks great! Plants look very healthy. :thumbup:

Hi Ana! Welcome to UKAPS! :wave:

Well, I have some Fissidens. :) It was supposed to be in the tank by now but other things have got in the way so it is currently sat in a jug of water. Hopefully be able to get it in on Friday at the latest.

Looks great! :thumbup:

Thanks All! Plan A - drop the water level and stuff the moss into crevices. Plan B - tie it to small pieces of rock Plan C - combine plans A & B [emoji1]

I was thinking about doing this too. I have plenty of rock I can break into small enough pieces.

If I didn't have shrimp in the tank already I would just drain it and then use the DSM to attach the moss. This may still be the best option. The pain with this is going to be getting the shrimp out and keeping them somewhere else. I could remove the rocks but I am slightly reluctant as I just...

I was hoping you were going to say that!

I really like it how it is. I would try to get that substrate covered with more plants and I think it will look great.

Hi Mark, Welcome to UKAPS! :wave:

Cheers Roy. Am I gonna need to tie that on?

You are right. It definitely needs more greenery and maybe some smaller rocks. It is very much a work in progress. What moss would you recommend?

Thanks Roy! No mate. It's Bolbitis. Thanks! Pretty sure I'm gonna be asking. [emoji4]

Thanks Roy! I have started a journal HERE. Still need to be able to take a decent photo. I feel the tanks look much better in the flesh. Hoping to start a couple of Wabi-Kusa soon so may need to pick your brains on them. :)

Did they not give you a pair of Kessils as well. So tight.... lol :D

Looks great! [emoji106]

Hi! Welcome to UKAPS! [emoji4]

As I have said on FB, this is very well deserved. [emoji106] Looking forward to the scape!

I was thinking the same the other day. All seems to have gone quiet on this front.

THIS stuff. Be aware it needs a LOT of rinsing!

Thanks! Simply because I like the way the colour matches that of the lava rock. Probably not but I am not too fussed about this as I want a jungle effect after all. If it gets too unruly I will trim it or replace it.

Hi All! I have taken down four of my tanks and replaced them with two Dennerle Scapers tanks. I will also be setting up two Wabi-Kusa shortly. TANK 1 This is purely a shrimp tank. Currently housing about 20 Red Cherry Shrimp. I will add some more (most likely Red Crystal Shrimp) once it is a...

Hi! I'm gonna be repeating myself on three separate journals but this tank has now been taken down. In fact all 4 tanks in this room have been taken down and sold. No further pics I'm afraid. They have been / will be replaced with 2 Dennerle Scapers tanks and two Do! Aqua plant glass...

Thanks Matt & Zozo. I have read Roy's excellent journal a few times. Just wanted a few to look for so thanks for the suggestions! [emoji106]

Hi All, I am looking to set up a couple of really basic Wabi-Kusa using my Do! Aqua plant glass 'cubes'. (For reference they are 15cm x 15cm x 20cm ( l x d x h ). Can someone recommend a couple of stem plants that should grow out of the glass and (hopefully) flower? Would in-vitro plants be...

You can set up an RO unit to run of a hose pipe / washing machine tap so no permanent plumbing needed. This is what I do. There is a really good You Tube video on this but I cannot link to it whilst at work.
