Wow it's been awhile. So life happened got married, sold project car etc
Anyway, this tank is still going along with 3 others. I just started EI Dosing a week ago.
Some of these are very recent in the tank just about a week old
I don't have photos on my pc so easiest way was to use instagram...
Thanks I'll keep at it then. I think it ended up taking a bad turn because I have dimmed it back quite a bit as it was kinda bright. I'll pluck the leave and monitor the growth.
Been at least a week. I've done a 50% water change and put the light on lowest setting.
I have made a few changes to the tank as I made a impulse buy of cockatoo cichlids (orange) picked up a male and female. The female betas have no problem with them so far. I tried to take images but they...
Warrior is a show about the Chinese immigrating to america (San in the late 1800's. gangs clashing and political clash as well.
Final Space is animated, but the story line is decent and funny as well.
Upped to 2bpm.
Day 1 with pressurised co2 (rock still there holding down the wood.) I have no idea when it will be waterlogged hopefully not too much longer as I have moss that I want to put there.
Managed to squeeze in a water change before work.
Currently home on lunch to check the tank on its first day on pressurised co2.
Drop checker is green so that's good. I've read it's more of a guideline then a precise indicator. All of 5 fish are doing well and 28 shrimp aredoing their thing...
Will Do :thumbup:
The Brazilian pennywort arrived as well and I picked up some anubias nano coin. Still waiting on the monte carlo.
I also took the liberty to take 2 tank photos since I had the wife's phone as my phone takes rubbish quality photos.
Everything connected up. I read after turning on the solenoid to wait 30 mins before adjusting flow. So just waiting now. In terms of BPS I might start at 1BPS and take it slow see how things go. I used the wife's phone for photos hopefully they are alot better then the previous ones I've taken...
Thanks Jay, definatly gives me a good idea of what to expect timeline wise of a co2 bottle. I think only a 2kg bottle will for in my cabinet anyway. Seems FE is defo the way to go. The wood I got from tunnel aquatics was from a set of 3. I grabbed the largest one. :thumbup:
Ive just seen the...
Mine will probably be 130L taking the substrate and hardscape into consideration. This helps a lot tho thanks. I have a small tank as well in my gameroom I just redid this one as well.
Looks like I'm buying a FE. I've seen a thread on here I thnk removing the funnel on it to connect the regulater. I have the tools and if your saying the CO2 is good for tanks I might as well do it. Thanks man hopefully I can fit one in my cabinet big enough to last a while.
Is the quality of co2 inside a FE ok for a tank? If so then I probably would, but I still would need a place to refill. I found a place in Doncaster, but thats nearly an hour away (live in leeds) I also don't know how often I'd need to travel there to get a refill.
So I've come across something awesome today. The wife and I were heading to whitby for a day out and we came across signs for a aquctic tunnel at a garden centre and we decided on a whim to park up and head in. I'm glad we did because I came across an really good piece of decor/wood. Plant...
Sort Post
The plants I ordered came
-Alternanthera rosanervig
-Hygrophila siamesi 53B
Rosewood in soak
And Dragon rock taken now and plan to break down the 2 big pieces. Bottle there for reference (not used of course)
I will try and take as much pics as I can here.
Before I load up some picture just gonna mention a few things. So i have actually had this tank for nearly 2 years and doing those 2 years it has gone through some changes and at one point it was actually self sufficient which i was proud of, but...
Great minds think alike
It does have much more space now. I was tempted to take the black sides off of my tank to have more visual affect but i didnt bother. Do you have a journal going?
Straight to the point.
140L is doing alright havent had a prob really.
Ive added few more plants etc
I have decided to completely redo the 60L and make it a shrimp tank. I have 20 RCS so ill split them in half between both tanks.
I have noticed a very annoying problem with my 60L tank...
So here goes nothing. Let it be known i'm a total noob at this. I have three tanks in total, but I will only be focusing on two since one is a 24/7 QT tank.
So my first tank ever was the superfish home 60 which I still have going. I have done a massive maintenance on both tanks today.
Superfish...
I want to but i've seen so many really amazing scapes on here makes all mine look kinda bleh :(. I'm doing maintenance on them today so I might take a few snaps and do a write up in the afternoon after work.
Hi i'm Simon. Basically still new to this got my first tank Aug 2017 (60L) second tank in Dec 2017 (140L) and have a 24/7 QT tank (12L). Based leeds and new to the area. I got into the hobby only based that I always wanted a Fishtank. Upon researching I found all these awesome aquascapes ever...
