fluval

Hi, new to the forum, and hope this is the most appropriate section to post in. I have a LightGlo tank with a twin lamp hood 100x40cm which I believe is a euro size made by Hagen (Fluval). Unfortunately, this is now beyond any further economical or ‘Heath Robinson’ type repairs, and the final...

Hello all, just wondering if there are members who have successfully added additional lighting to their flex. The built-in lights are barely enough, I'm trying to achieve a thicker carpeting of 'MONTE CARLO' and 'TENELLUM GREEN' plant species but the light isn't going to be enough. Thanks.

Hi, Still searching for an ideal 60 l tank. I can't have horizontal rectangle one but was looking at the fluval 57 litre or: -tetra-aquaart-explorer-tropical-tank-60-litre what's people's opinions on this tank? Many thanks x

hi, It's me again hope you aren't sick of me!! I really want a 60 litre tank to get some little shoals in. I wanted a rectangular one but me and my mam have butted heads as she says it'll take up a lot of room. She loves the thought of fishies but we have limited room. I then stumbled upon...

Hi! I'm new to tge forum and in need of help, so thought it best to ask here since there is far more knowledhe here than mine! So i have a fluval flex 57 litre (15g) and i was trying to open the front of the pump to clean the filter foam. I couldn't get tge tube off so i tried with it still on...

Hi We are running our home aquarium down and hoping to move it on, with the arrival of 2 children the poor tank sadly does not get the attention it used to. We have re-homed the fish, but we do have a selection of live Java Fern plants that are available to anyone interested. Also there are...

I couldn’t find many threads/reviews about of Dr Tim’s freshwater cycling products when I was researching what method to use for my tank. I knew I wanted to use Dr Tim’s as I liked the idea of the One & Only Nitrifying Bacteria used in conjunction with the Ammonium Chloride instead of having to...

Finally got round to setting up my Fluval Flex 57L this weekend. Been researching this a lot over the last few months and decided to do a low tech planted tank. The lights probably aren't the best and perhaps the plants I've used are of a higher spec than I think but I'll give it a go. Not...

Hi guys Was wondering if someone could give their opinion on the following stocking level. I have bought a Fluval Edge 57L (15G) but it's not set up yet. The cycling process is starting this weekend. I manged to find some Dr Tims One & Only Freshwater plus the Ammonium Chloride which I plan...

Hello! Yesterday I moved my little guys (6 zebrafish, 1 panda cory, and 1 male dragon scale betta) into a Fluval Edge (6g); they had been in a Fluval Spec (5g) together for about a year. They've acclimated fine, as have the java ferns. The design of the Fluval Edge is such that the tank is full...

Hello... I'm new to the forum and also petty new to fish-keeping. I've had a tank before (a biOrb Flow 15 which wasn't what I thought it would be so it's being sold now) but in the research stages of getting a new tank. I love the look of the Fluval Edge 46L (12G) tank but read that it's not...

I adore my little fluval edge and all of its tiny inhabitants (even though it's excellent looking design makes it a bear to clean and rearrange).   I've found keeping this tank is far more difficult than keeping a large one as every little thing ....well, is not so little.   I tried to upload a...

I recently started a 20 gal long planted aquarium. I have had many aquariums but this is the first one I have had fully stocked with live plants, so I am new to the planted tank world. It has been up and running (and cycled) for about 8 weeks and no plants seem to be flourishing.  I have a T5...

I want to try using CO2 on my planted tank. I currently have these plants:   Peacock Fern Staurogyne Repens Bacopa Temple Compacta Anubias Nana Windelov Java Fern   Plus a large lip algae eater   I've had the Windelov, Anubias, Temple and Bacopa for about a week and they haven't really grown...

Hello Everyone,  I had a question regarding running the hoses for my Fluval 406 Cannister into a 55 gal tank (48x13) through the hoods. The tank has two similar hoods with perforated cut outs along the back of each for a Penguin 350 (I am using the cannister in the place of the Penguin 350). ...

I would like to thank all the awesome members that have helped me get back into the hobby that I so loved years ago.   I was able to cycle my little tank (fishless) in 18 days and it looks amazing.   It's now home to 5 adorable little endler guppies that are so insanely active and colorful that...

Just saying hi and introducing myself.   My name is Jen and I just purchased a little fluval edge 6 gallon with a couple live plants and a nice piece of driftwood.   A cute little assassin snail must have stowed away in a plant because he's the sole inhabiter of my little aquarium.   I'm cycling...
