    Replacement lighting for fluval roma 200?

    Well the T8 lighting bar has semi-given up on my roma. Thing is, its sort of integral to the tank having a lid, which it desperately needs. Does anyone know if the new iQuatics universal bar will fit? Or, have any other ideas?

    Rainbow River

    This is my 200L rainbowfish turned community tank. I'm only on day 11 so far, and its not finished yet. I'm going to add some C. Balansae for some height on the right, and to get a nice sway in the filter flow once they reach a good height. I had issues with leaking regulators so only today...

    Feedback A positive experience with CO2art

    UPDATE: All sorted! thank you! Had to post this, as I can't seem to get anywhere fast with CO2art. Bought their professional reg, the one with the blue working pressure adjuster. First one leaked from the high pressure gauge itself. They sent a new one. Second one leaked from the main...

    Need help installing solenoid

    So, I'm having a little problem. I've just got a solenoid valve to add to my system. How-ever, it does not seem to actually fit onto the regulator, as the reg has a needle valve already installed. I tried hooking up co2 tubing between the reg, and the solenoid, but after 10 minutes or so, the...

    FE and safety

    Hi all, I'm thinking about switching over to a FE set-up, but I have avoided it in the past because, well, of this: What sort of safety precautions should I be aware of when fitting a reg to a CO2 FE? Am I right in saying the reg must be at the off position when fitting it? And when you...

    Shrimp safe filter?

    Hi guys - I have a small nano, that came with a small internal filter. It appears to be killing my shrimp, as I am often finding them dead inside it, despite many attempts at blocking off any entrances to it. Obviously, this is not working. Can anyone recommend a small internal or something...

    Cutting acrylic

    Hi all, DIY related, not specifically fish tank... but I need to cut some acrylic, a sheet of it, such as many of you use for tank lids. I'll do myself a decent lid at the time, but I must confess my main use for this will be child proofing a tv unit!! What would you folk suggest I use to...

    Where plants go to die

    :shock: As spotted in a local pet store. Yes, that one. Not surprised honestly, but slightly miffed as postage costs from Aqua Essentials are quite high really, and this Tropica supplied shop is only 2 minutes away. Thing is... this is not the worst I've seen in my area & surrounding...

    Lighting novice - need some advice

    I have recently had a catastrophe and my arcadia ellipse light decided to take a swim. Not my fault, cheap plastic broke. For those of you that may have seen me mention this today, know that I may never forgive Arcadia for the poor quality plastic!! Anyway... I'm on a low budget, but luckily...

    Amano colours

    Okay so this may sound a bit odd, but some of my Amano's are blue-ish tinted in colour. After a quick search online some people are saying its a sign of poor water, and others are saying its fine... anyone have any ideas? They've seemed pretty healthy to me, been moulting and such fine, eating...

    I have been given by a family member, an old tank of their's. Its 100 Litres, or around about that. Its a cheap ClearSeal model. And its been through a heck of a lot of abuse. Water changes once every few months. Overstocked with 4, very, very large goldfish (now in pond). It is grimy and...

    Flame Moss advice

    I recently bought some Flame Moss, a fair amount, and a good half or maybe more of it arrived pretty brown. I planted it into the tank anyway, but while the parts that were green seem to be thriving, the brown doesn't seem to be getting any better, if anything a little worse. I'm wondering if...

    60 Ltr Rescape

    Hello all, First post here. Decided I wasn't happy with pretty much everything in my Arcadia Arc II tank, so I started to work on ideas for a rescape. This is how it was up until about 5pm yesterday. I removed all the fish, painstakingly cleaned out the old substrate. Put the petrified...
