Hey guys i wasnt sure where to post this but ive just found my german blue ram dead today and now looking at the other fish i have a cardinal tetra who is like literaly bent into an s shape does any have any ideas what could be happening. Nothing new has gone into that tank for a long time

Great ideas guys, i think its going to have to be a bin, my mum had a fit at even the idea of a small paddling pool being added to my room!

hey guys, just a random question. What do you think i should store my fish in whilst i rescape my tank and let the ammonia settle etc. I am going top be adding aquasoil and 2 majorly matured filters. I was thinking the small sand pit/swimming pool out of argos. the fish are 6 small angels, 9...

Hey, i am soon going to rescape my tank completely with aquasoil, ferts etc. What i am worried about is when i put the Aquasoil in theres going to be the ammonia spike, the fish will be removed and placed into buckets etc. What i want to know is how long before i can put them back in the tank...

Wow never had such fast replies on here! excellent info guys thankyou. Saintly, after seeing the results with your tanks i think i may bulk out with the aquabasis as i have a few more goodies i need to order from AE anyway! have you seen the JBL stuff rise to the surface atall or has it stayed...

Hey i have jus got my 2 9l bags of aquasoil and read on the back it says its one 9l bag per 60 litres, i have a 180 litre tank and by using the normal method of working out how much i would need it came up that i would need just over 18? Do i need another 9 litre bag?

hey would a rhinox 1000 be ok in a 180 litre tank i cant find anywhere with the 2000 or 5000 in stock and am unsure on other brands

Hey, has anybody used this? ive just found it on AE and was wondering if i should use it when i revamp my tank soon and change the substrate to aquasoil, maybe this will remove the ammonia that leaches?

Hey i am about to start a rescape on my tank and am thinking of adding aquasoil however i have tetra plant complete capped with sand right now and was wondering if i removed the sand cap and added the aquasoil ontop of the left over tetra to fill things out (ada is expensive lol) would there be...

Hey guys. Right now i have a Rio 180 setup with 2 45w T5's a tetratec ex700 and an eheim 2213 filtering. A 200w Hydor ETH external heater and the substrate is tetra plant complete capped with playsand. I have now purchased everything for a pressurised co2 kit and some new wood and mini landscape...

hey i have argos playsand capping tetra plant complete in my rio 180, the sand is in 2 places of high flow going light brown and and sticking together. the sand everywhere else is fine. Is this diatoms?

sorry, its 28l in a cube shape

Hey guys im having to shut down one of my tanks in a few days and was wondering what to do when i set it back up again. It will be planted with good substarate maybe Aquasoil as i have not tried it yet. My question is if you had an eden 501 external, easy carbo, TPN and ad aquastart 320 with 11w...

Hey has anyone used this regulator and solenoid? From the box it looks like an Azoo one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CO2-Pressure-Regu ... 240%3A1318

If i add the eco complete to my empty tank so i can decide on the scape i want whilst i wait for the rest of the equipment to come. Will the eco dry out maing it unusable? does it need to stay wet?

Hey guys. i have just bought a rio 180 and am planning on using E.I on it however. For 2 weeks i will be away on holiday with my parents. For that 2 weeks i the water wont be changed but the fish will still be fed by our neighbour. what will happen if the tank is not does for 2 weeks after being...

Excellent, Thankyou

Ok, what about the solenoid and regulator? will any fit a FE or do i have to modify it?

What do you do with the used bottles and will any solenoid and regulator fit?

£14.95 for 500g and £25.95 for 2kg. To buy a 2kg cylinder though its £150! im tempted to just buy the fire extinguisher etc and hide it. She never goes near the tank so i may get away with it.

My mum wont let me go the fire extinguisher route. She only wants me to get a proper set but i give her untill christmas before she has had enough of taking me to get refills.

excellent thanks

How long will a 500g Co2 canister last on a 180 liter setup?

i spoke to my other local shop and they had never heard of it either. They do stock eco complete and jbl substrates though

Hey, is it worth using aquasoil if i am not going to be using pressurised co2? the reason being in travel a fair bit and there is 2 weeks a year where noone to regulate the co2 while the family is away. Would a tank suffice on easycarbo?

Hey guys at the moment im saving up to upgrade my current aquarium - Juwel Rekord 96 - to a Rio 180. I know i want to go Planted with Co2, high light and good substrate. I am going to use ADA aquasoil amazonia. Do you need one bag of power sand per bag of aquasoil or will one bag be enough for...

Hey, does aquasoil always release ammonia in a tank when it is first put in?

Ahh i see well its a good thing TGM and aqua essentials are around then!

Hey, i just rang Amwell aquatics in soham and was informed that they have never even heard of ADA and do not stock Aquasoil. Is ADA not as common in shops as i thought it was?
