If your tank has been established long enough, i would go for couple of bamboo shrimp, as there large peaceful & can be very attractive, especially after shed

Hello, hope someone can help. I am running a large external with 2 types of ceramic media & various sponges & wool pad, on my freshwater planted tank, but i am wanting to add a PHOSBAN REACTOR 150 that i have, What would be the best media to use, considering what media i am already using, thank...

Hi, is the filter running ok, as this was the problem when i had this happen, sometimes because you hear it running, you presume everything is fine. Hopefully you have already found the problem though, if not then give the filter a good check like i said, good luck.

:sad:

Hi all, i have just purchased a fluidized bed filter with maxi-jet 500 pump, trouble is that i don't really know what i am doing with it. I thought i could somehow use it to incorporate my inline heater back on my tank, as i am currently using an aquis 2250 filter on my 300ltr planted tank, of...

Hi, do you have anymore of the orange amano's, preferable adult? I will take 10 if so.

The heater was previously on an aquis 1250, but have changed to aquis 2250, which has way bigger pipework, so just wanted to know if there is anyway i can stick with the external heater, as it says the 300watt heater fits any external filter on the market?

Hi, have changed my filter, but the hosing is way larger diameter, is it possible to buy separate connections for the hydor external heaters, or anyone know a makeshift way of fitting it. Or will the fact the heater has smaller diameter, mean it just wont work anyway?

Hi, could somebody tell me whats the best way of attaching my hydor external heater to my new larger diameter (32mm) filter hosing please

All sorted, just needed to know if chucking the sludge away would leave me short of bacteria, but now you have said its fine, everything is ok now.I only intended to throw the wool pad anyway. Think i over did my cleaning yesterday, as i needed to add a bag of limpopo to my fine gravel & guess i...

Hi, need help fast please, my tank filter was not working properly so i took out to clean.It has a lot of sludge in bottom, can i throw this away, or do i need to keep some, as it wont go through my fine sieve.I have give the pads a squeeze & replaced the wool pad but will there be enough good...

It's only got 2x30w t8's, so no co2 needed.My plec was on them today, which i haven't seen him do before, so took them out as some of the leafs were starting to turn mushy & they smelt rotten when i got them out. Guess they are non aquatic, like was suggested :grr: Still don't understand why...

No, don't think it is.Had another look today & its white over green rather than green over white & there thinner stripes than a Chlorophytum comosum & more of them?

Do you think my lighting could be problem, especially with dead roots?

Thats colored like spider plant, not actually spider plant :fun:
