Well watch out for eggs because the snails spawn at a ridiculous rate! If it was me I'd wait for the assasin snails to clear the tank first

Pest snails probably arrived with with plants from your LFS Someone will give you the proper name on here Asassin snails will get rid of them they are awesome at it! I think they look quite cool too!

Thought id give him a try all for the fun of course! Entry Verification

May consider live I don't know, I'll do some research first as for now ill place some left over stones and some off cuts from a grass mat and a black background! Will post pics eventfully and keep updated as regard to the live plants Cheers guys

Wow woke up to to more replies overnight than the all the replies on the thread for the past few days haha Cheers frappadoodle, It's not im too nice it's I try to explain everything as much as possible on here but maybe I sould be more blunt! Cheers guys ill take all that into account regarding...

Looks like its just me and ou frapadoodle Yes I am going for a black on black with the background I removed an old one as it was damaged when doing a mod on the tank. I'm thinking of purchasing a carpet but cutting it up and scattering small squares around what do think? I've also been looking...

Still hoping for a reply on the GBR's and scape guys

*bump*

Regards to rehoming, would beta struggled could have sword with the LFS though... Yes I posted the GBR's under new world cichlids got some replies but not many, I got a few slating the quality of the pics which were from the iPad, also now the suspected male is showing some signs of blus in...

Ok so are you saying its aggression? It's just the fish aren't damaged and its only happening to that one barb? I don't really want to fill the tank with more barbs

Originally there were 4 of each but now there are 2 cherrys and 4 golden. Does the variety effect behaviour towards each other would ok say I'd presume they'd be fine, well they have been for over 6 months anyway its just started recently Goodaire

*bump*

Maybe this thread isn't as important as the title implies so firstly my apologies for that. The reason behind the thread is to help resolve some issues I have which have been mentioned in individual threads previously but suffered from lack of attention so I'm putting them all together! Ill...

Have you got any pictures that sounds awesome

Thanks everybody, I apologise for the quality of the pictures again like I said the iPad isn't the best camera anyway without having to take a picture in the explained conditions! I will post some better pics on the weekend to be sure however to look at them I am pretty certain I have a pair...

That logistically is true however i can assure you thats what is happening. There is no splashing what so ever, obviously I have the surface being disrupted and circulating to allow gaseous exchange so it's not like I can change that. Ever since its been packed with sponge it's been sorted...

Not sure on the size of the unit tbh so I couldn't say whether it will be different to your tank, however if it does dont worry about there being too much light the only problem that could cause is algae really! I will say this though, if you opt for the LFS unit be careful when fitting it you...

Yeah that's quite cool! You running an external filter or is it hidden in that corner? Are you having two tanks then or replacing this one? Cheers Liam Goodaire

Hey guys, For those who aren't aware I've had a bit of bother with my tank which has been mentioned in other topics! Anyway whilst trying to amend this issue i thought this gives the perfect opportunity to rescape, I'd got quite bored of how it looked and want something different! The only...

There's nothing else to it except from what you just said, it's very strange! I googled it first off and it seems a few people have the same problem and when they have contacted fluval it turns out to be a design fault! Unfortunately I cannot contact fluval expecting since I bought the tank...

No pink showing however the black spot has got blue sheen showing through, the last pic I posted you can't even see the black spot that's why I posted that one! Yeah I know sorry about that they were taken on the iPad cos my phone was dead at the time, and I can assure you the camera isn't the...

Scrape over it with a blade from a Stanley knife, I've had a similar problem and that worked best for me! Don't press though as you may scratch the glass just repeatedly scrape,over it and it should just scrape away! Hope ths helps! Liam Goodaire

IMO that is fully stocked, I know everybody wants to see a packed tank swarming with fish but unfortunately that isn't ideal for the fish! Have you considered getting any shrimp? They come in many varieties and you can basically stock as many as you like? They can be a nice addition to any tank...

I had the exact same problem back when I first got into keeping fish! Very annoying if nothing else and ruin the tanks image! I tried all sorts but the way which I got rid of them was this: I transferred all of the fish out of the tank, removed all the decor and rinsed then left in hot water to...

The majority of superglue is safe, it's been a while since I used some and can't remember what it was you shouldn't use! Haha Someone will confirm it for you I'm sure and hopefully someone will share pics, I'm looking for some inspiration to rescape my own tank tbh so I look forward to tracking...

Thanks man Okay cheers for that, I'll try and get a better photo but whenever I do they just swim face on haha Ill try again Just attempted some more pics, both settled down much better after 20mins in the tank. Colours showing much brighter and both swimming together. Absolutely certain it's...

Hi guys, Could you please help sex these 2 new additions, I did my best in the LFS to do so but was quite difficult. This is the suspected male? And this is the suspected female? Fingers crossed Cheers Liam Goodaire

Just taken this one, like I say I've actually packed it with sponge last night and woke up this morning to the glass being bone dry with no trail of water at all. Touch wood! But here's the pic sorry about the quality it was hard to get a picture without the tank light on Obviously the circled...

No none of the fish ever jump even slightly, and no I don't have a spray bar either however the surface of the water is constantly circulating! Leaving the lid open didn't resolve the issue either. I have now dried and cleaned under the grove and filled packed with sponge, it isn't visible and...

Since this post is struggling for replies ill put a thought forward, what do you think to this... If I get some sponge and fill the underneath of the lips in to prevent the water vapour travelling up past the lip to condense, then allow time to remove any moisture what is already there, in...

I am trying this for this week to see what the results are however I aren't really happy with the appearance, I mean it defeats the inject of spending both time on money on the and getting it to a high standard and then to be ruined by the front lid open! The problem is that it ruins the image...

Ok I can try that, however it's not just occurring on a night so I might try prop it open just slightly somehow permanently and see if that works. When does yours occur? And does leaving the flap open prevent the issue or just improve it? Liam Goodaire

Hi guys Just wondering if anyone has had the same problem as me or if anyone has any suggestions on how t resolve this issue First let me explain, I have a Fluval Roma 125 and the condensation obviously rises up onto the underneath of the lid. However there is some sort of lip where the lid fits...

I think that's a little unfair to say it doesn't involve training, surely what you described is training even though it's in the same environment as the matches that would be played. I have a wide range of tackle which I use and I generally decide on a selection to take with me on the day I...

hi just thought id right a journal to inform you guys how everything is going with the fluval roma 125 i bought on ebay, also thought would help me keep up to date and on top of the cycle so will be just keeping updated on here so far... 07/06-2011 purchased fluval roma 125 on ebay with stand...

very cheap, however i got mine for 87 with cabinet and all accesories

How big is your friends tank and how did he acquire the perch? looks nice I must say, what does he fees them also? Once had a pond and I'm an angler and the owner asked if I wanted any fish from his pond as somebody was giving it up and said whatever I catch and fancy I could have, those roach...

HTC Desire, Archos Tablet, or comp depending where I am

Can they eat worms left over from a fishing trip?

start the bidding haha :hey:
