Hello,
After buying a Biorb 30ltr flow, then finding this place... and finding out that they are not the best tanks to keep fish in..
I have bought a Fluval roma 90 and a Tetra EX600..
I am just about to start setting it up, and have a question about the filter..
With the help of you lovely...
Thought so, thanks for confirming it.
I may well just stick with about 6 Guppies as the couple I do have are very active and enjoyable to watch.
Them after a good few months have past with no hicups I will add say 8 Cardinals.
:)
Another day with good readings...
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Did the Nitrate test as you said...
But didn't realy help as it's between 10 and 20... so I would say 75 :)
Have now got the 90 Litre tank... Man it looks huge compared to the Biorb 30, also the external filter.
I will give it...
it's easy once you done it once..
If you want send(email) me the photo(s), and I'll upload them and send you a link.
As have loads of web space going.
:)
I will do that test tomorrow, when I get back from collecting my new tank :) lol
I have just bought a Fluval Roma 90, as this is the biggest tank I could fit into this small flat.
What I intend to do is..
Get it all up and running and next week then remove half of the foam from the biord...
I haven't been doing the nitrate tests but,,,
Just done a complete test a liitle after 24hrs since the last 50% water change and..
Ammonia = 0
Nitrite = 0
Nitrate = 40-80 So hard to see the difference between the 2
PH = 7.6
So the nitrate is up from last time I tested for it...
Well for the past couple of weeks I have been doing 70% water changes every 48 hrs , as it's been taking that long to see any sign of ammonia..
Today after waiting 72 hrs without changing the water I have for the first time seen 0 ammonia and at last a slight nitrite rise .25 :hyper:
Not...
Hello,
Pretty new myself.
And the first thing I changed was the air pump.
Depending on what size you need I would go for a Eheim pump..
IMO as near to silent as you can get
:)
Just an update..
It's been 2 weeks with just having 2 guppies in the tank and have been doing 80-90% water changes everyday
Today before the water change I did a test and hopefully it's getting there...
The Ammonia test was that hard to see if there was any green I tested the tap water to...
Just a quick update..
Cardinals have gone back :sad: , but it's for the best.
So just 2 Guppies.
Have been doing 90% water changes everyday, and will continue until the water is good and clear.
Then add another Guppy and test agian, and when clear will add my final guppy.
Thanks for the...
I did try to convince him to take them all, but he has already got 6, and says he would be overstocked.. (more of a work colleage than friend)
Wasn't going to use it to help the cycle more to take the stress away from the fish..
Thanks
