    Driftwood

    Ok, I got a little impatient and after 2 days of soaking in extremely hot water I put it in. There was no tannins at all but if/when it starts the tetras will like it. I also got 2 baby crayfish in there. The tank was originally for them, but decided to put the tetras in there as well to free up...

    Do you think it will be two big for a 54 liter tank. I was thinking of cutting it into two and putting them on opposit sides of the tank and have a open space in the middle.

    Driftwood

    I would like to have it done before my family flys over. Should I just leave it soaking in cold water or keep pouring hot/boiling water over it. Or if it is indeed leaking slowly, soak it for a few more days and then put in in the tank. I know that some tannins is ok for tetras.

    I was under the impression that all did from what I read. If that is the case then all I have to do is get it to sink. Part sinks and the other side floats a little. How can you tell what kind of wood it is?

    Driftwood

    I went yesterdayto my lps and was looking at the driftwood. Bought a nice piece and took it home. Unfortunately I had to cut a couple centimeters of the top part to fit nicely. Since I didn't have a pot big enough I am using a big box like thing (forgot the name). I put boiling water on it for...

    I Need Some Guidance

    Sorry for not answering quicker (got a nice little back payment and went shopping).... Unfortunately I am still trying to find a good home for the Clown Loaches, they might be a little hard to get rid of. I did go to Ahlona Aquarium in Nurnberg (really nice store and very professional, i think...

    I Need Some Guidance

    I am going to miss the Clown Loaches, they are my daughters and mine favorites.... The more I read about them the more I am intrigued but I also know that I cant handle them yet in a small tank.... Hopefully about 6 months from now I will have a bigger tank....
