    Fish Deaths?

    Over the past 2 weeks I have had fish dying on me and not showing any signs of illness until I see them dead the next day. It is a Hi-tech tank with Co2 injection but I have ruled that out as the fish would show stress if they where getting too much. I did run out of Co2 at the start of...

    (Microsorum Pteropus SP. 'trident') problem?

    I know it should be easy to grow but I recently got some of a member on here and it has been in my tank a week now and it appears to be dying off (turning brown, then grey) ..... is it just adapting to different water parameters? I believe the tank they were in before was low tech and they are...

    How dangerous is placing your open topped tank beside the fireplace?

    We moved house back in may and as yet we haven't lit the fire. The only spot in the house for my new 120 Optiwhite is beside the fireplace and I am concerned about fumes from the fire and the tank being open topped? What are the risks and how risky is it?

    Shrimp or Otto damage?

    Everytime my hydrophilia polysperma and limnophila aromatica get to a decent size to start trimming and enable them to start bushing out, either the amano shrimp or ottos take into the leaves over a few nights and ruin the whole plant to the point I have to cut the best bits off and replant...

I have researched and researched til the cows have come home and the main advice is to use spraybars with inline atomizers etc, but I have noticed that in Amanos set-ups he uses lily pipes and single...

    Zooplus.de won't deliver to Northern Ireland

    I had it all planned out and was going to save around £50 by ordering from zooplus.de but after going through the whole ordering process they say they won't deliver to my zip code, yet they will deliver to all other parts of united kingdom if I'm right in saying. Feel so left out in the cold...

    What height for tank?

    I am going to get a new optiwhite tank built but wanted some advice as to the best height to have it? The dimensions of the tank are 96x40x?cm ...... I am thinking 50cm for the height. The lighting will be an allponds luminare with 2x39w. So just want to know if that will be enough light to...

    How would you do yours?

    Ok, Im fed up to the back teeth of trying and thinking of the best way to filter/distribute flow around my juwel rio 400 (5ft tank) ...... so I thought I would angle this question to everyone as to how they would set up their tank (151cm x 51 x 66) for best plant success at the least cost.
