Hi oh wise ones, can you please help how I introduce live plants without snails - easy & idiot guide instructions please 😃

Thank you, that’s what i was worried about - patience grass hopper patience 😂 I shall wait until my return 😩😩

🐠🐟 I’ve voted tank of the month - have you? 🐟🐠

So I go away for a week in about 4 weeks’ time - question is should I start Fishless cycling now with household ammonia or wait until I’m back? Was thinking of throwing in some Tetra SafeStart too to help boost things along the way!

Aww thank you soo much, that’s so very kind of you but sadly I’m not near Quick Q is I may please — chap threw these in too - any good to kick start the cycle? (Except for the aqua safe of course)

Ok, so a bargain tank has just popped up so may be tank cycling sooner than anticipated - I have Seachem Prime as the dechlorinator, household ammonia (knock off) to feed the tank up to 3ppm for first dose but my question is .. is there any bottled beneficial bacteria I can pop in the tank to...

Thank you both! I’ll have a look into the eheim and also tweaking the juwel internal filter and see what may work best

Hi! Looking to get a Juwel Primo 70 which comes with Bioflow One filter but would like to either add ceramic media to it (but how?) or replace for a different internal filter that can house ceramic media also (but which one?). Any help / advice greatly appreciated, thank you

Wow really?! Argos play sand! I’m shocked but pleasantly surprised! Was looking at this Komodo natural sand - your thoughts if I may: https://amzn.eu/d/503OwwO Failing that Argos play sand it shall be 😃

Thank you! So a fine sand it is then 😃 May I ask your recommendations please?

The signature link didn’t work? Took me to Twitch but there was nothing? I’m starting up a new tank - how do I affix the low growing stuff in the tank? So you only have that and no substrate?

Out of interest with cories and plants what substrate would you recommend?

Ooh I’ll check out Xmas moss instead of Java 😃

Defo need to think of the cories which is why I’m not going seachem fluorite - something I was advised to use 🤷‍♀️ I won’t be having Baby tears just plants such as anubias, Java fern / moss etc
