I've got some spare parts you can have for postage, I'll email you once I get to where my stuff is. i've got a diffuser with built in drop checker you can have for a few quid.

I reckon you can save even more money on the regulator too using a welding reg and a needle valve, supercoley would be the one to ask.

trust me, it is all down hill! steves right, i started with a 120L, then went to 240L and now a bigger one is 'curing' courtesy of Aquariums ltd. It starts getting really expensive when substrate alone is costing over £100 :lol:
all this for some fish eh? :D

You think that's bad......
Me my girlfriend and our best friend are planing on moving out in november of this year, and im stripping down my 600l with a view to set that up as a low tech iwagumi style scape..... Im dreading that substrate bill :rolleyes:

Re: Journal 2 . Finaly, 4ft 238l CALLING ALL BRAINS!

Yup. all the fixtures are the same so that fittings are universal and avoid dangers situations like cross threading or lose fits.
