Before and after. I only have a few easy to grow plants in my two Nano’s and the little 37L was well overdue for a trim. No idea what the plant is on the left but it’s growing really well and is sending out lots of runners. Now it has a bit more light maybe it will grow even faster.

I don’t know what this stuff is, I bought it at Pets at Home, but it’s taken over the tank. I keep having to trim it. And I only put a shot of Tropica in every month or so! It’s the 60L on the left.

Are they safe to put in an aquarium? I have an oak tree in my garden and a few years back I took some leaves off while they were still green and dried them to put into a hedgehog box. They remained green once dried and looked nice so wondering if I could do the same for my aquarium. I don’t...

The Salvinia has never grown that well in one of my tanks, a 37L Nano. I have had something of an explosion in the numbers of shrimp in my tank and they’ve taken a liking to eating it so I’ve just removed the skeletons of the last of it and introduced some more. This morning I came down and...

How long does it take for this white fluffy stuff to stop appearing on Spiderwood? It’s only attaching itself in a few places at the moment and I keep brushing it off but it comes back in a couple of days. Just wondering how long before it stops or do I need to do something specific to stop it? TIA.

Quite a number of years ago one of the LFS I used to visit had a small Nano, probably 10L. The whole of the back of the tank had a “Wall” of Java moss and it looked very good. Do any of you know how this was likely to have been done? I’m guessing a large piece of stainless steel mesh may have...

I’ve not had an Aquarium for some years now but I’ve recently been thinking it would be nice to have a small 10L Nanocube with a few plants and some moss balls in it. I was hoping to just do water changes rather than running a filter. The problem is I live in a hard water area (Dorset) and one...

I had a shallow container on the windowsill with a small stone in it with some moss on it. I had to change the water EVERY day because it went green with Algae. Nothing unusual there. Having bought some Oto's I thought I'd supplement their diet by growing some Algae for them on some rocks in...

Not sure if this is the right place but, what's the preferred stainless steel mesh size for making Moss carpets? There seem to be a few different sizes offered on eBay.

I dosed my 35L Nano with Fenbendazole today to get rid of planaria and six hours later they're still alive. With no fish or shrimp in the tank I used double dose .2g as well! So how long till it works folks!? :?
