Hello everyone, I am planning a rescape of my tank on Monday. Currently I have had tetraplant complete substrate topped off with aquaclay, and am planning to replace the top layer with coarse sand. The substrate has been in form nearly a year now, and after advice from George Farmer I am...

Hi everybody, So I know that not all plants are compatible with liquid carbon, and different plants have different tolerances... Doe's anybody have a list of those that are compatible, or those that aren't, or maybe a link to a post where this has already been covered? Many thanks for your...

Having planted a 14l nano, the following day all leaves on the Ambulia Conferta and Micranthemum Micranthemoides had melted. There is a little melting on the Saurogyne but the other plants are fine (HC and Eleoacharis) I am doing 50% water changes daily in the Initial stages and dose easycarbo...

Hey everyone, Probably a quick one for you... I have recently changed from using JBL Ferapol on my 190L tank to dosing TPN+. Everything was growing well before, and is too now, but the old growth on my glosso has turned yellow. The only thing I have changed is the fertiliser. Lighting, CO2 is...

So... I've planted a 14l nano, and I'm trying to get away without having a heater inside. I have monitered the temperature for the last few days and at the coldest room temperature (pretty cold in this weather) it stays at 18 degrees C. What can I keep at this temperature? I would like to...

Hi, Planted a 14l nano yesterday and all was well, but today the water is cloudy... I've seen on other posts that some people carry out a daily waterchange on their nanos. Is this what I need to do or is it best to leave it alone.... Cheers, Jack

Hi everyone, Although I haven't seen many people with dwarf puffers, I have been reading a lot about them and would really like to give them a go. I am thinking of getting a P@H cube for my kitchen for these guys, about two or three, but I'm not sure whether to go for the 14l or the 25...

Hi everyone, I bought a few boesmani rainbow fish a few weeks ago, and when I got them home I noticed that one had, what looked like, very small white fluff on its lip. Having researched I came to the conclusion that this may be mouth rot. I quarantined the fish and dosed with Waterlife...

Anybody have some experience of inline CO2 diffusers? I am looking at this one at the mo - http://www.aquaessentials.co.uk/up-co2- ... -5432.html. I wonder if it will fit my fluval pipe since it ia ribbed (like a washing machine pipe) Also, do they kick out a load of bubbles or is the CO2...

Hello everybody, So having finally researched a little about filter media I hear that Carbon can remove plant nutrients from the water. Currently I am using what arrived with my Fluval 305; Sponges, 3 x Carbon packets, 3 x BioMax ceramic rings, and in addition to that some filter wool. What I...

Hi Everyone, This question will sound rediculous. There is no CO2 coming out of my cylinder, is it empty? I noticed that for the second time in 2 months my no return valve for the CO2 has packed in and there is water in all the pipes, solenoid, right back to the pressure regulator, but as far...
