hi again mate, love the tank, i can see them shrimps been very happy in there. i gave you small ones as they dont have a long lifespan and giving you older ones would have been a waste unless they have another batch of babies lol. if you ever need anymore in the future let me know :wink:

thanks guys, nothing beats relaxing on the sofa watching the fish and shrimp play :roll: lol i use a fluval edge heater on the one side and a newattino heater on the other for winter backup. the coolest thing of all is i have the filter, x2 heaters and i did have the co2 diffuser in before, oh...

cheers sam :thumbup: the rock size and placement in the width was the hardest part :twisted: but i pulled it off

hi guys, OK, so this isn't your typical aquarium type tank but i thought id share with you that you can still have a aquascape in a thin tank as well as a wide tank. since the last update i have sorted out the blyxa, cleaned glass, pipes etc put a stocking over the inlet as i have had 12 new...

hi very interesting read, looks lovely :thumbup: my bro, today, was talking about setting up a red claw crab set up a little like yours. my question is, how do you go about filtering the water as its lower and would cause a bit of a splash if using a external or hob(if it reaches the water...

Re: NeilW's 30cm nano - "Mono" im following this journal very closely lol, I'm basically doing what you are doing in a opti white aqua essentials tank in the kitchen. i was thinking of the same rock but 2 pieces, one large to the left and a smaller piece next to it on the right/slightly in...

hi andy, just thinking of what to put in my kitchen tank when i thought once again about your tank lol. just a quickly question mate, how did you find the Hydrocotyle Verticillata? how easy it it to plant, care after and trim? would you recommend?? cheers bud! :thumbup:

looking good mate!! looks fresh!! :mrgreen:

im loving the look of this scape, fingers crossed the hc grows well :thumbup:

i think it looks great! im going to get one of them koralias for added flow. i have my filter set up with a spray bar so it pushes the co2 around the tank but it needs just a little more flow to get it around the whole of the tank evenly. i did have my co2 right under my intake pipe but every...

here is what i have managed to get done today, i put a light on so i could see how clear it was.... what you think garuf?? :oops:

hi garuf i got my 12x10x8 today and started trimming the silicone but got in a bit of a pickle and messed it up so i had to trim right up to the edge of the glass so you cant see any silicone. ill post a pic tonight to show you, ive got to buy some silicone and alcohol to wipe the silicone...
