So happy, and i dont even really know why... :lol:
Going to ring the LFS tomorrow, and see if they've got anything of interest, and if they have something that takes my interest, ill bob down and get it. Still have'nt really decided on what im gonna get yet, but we'll just see.

Anyway, just a quick update :)

NICE!

You probably know this, but if you were doing fishless, make sure to keep those bacteria alive.

Good luck with the stocking.
 
good to hear mate - I remember when mine finally cycled, my only problem was when I started looking in the marine section at fish shops...

I never thought I would end up spending £150 on live rock..!

how about going planted with a big shoal of tetra and some corys?

Chhers guys :good:
Well i phoned the LFS to see what they have in stock, and theyve got a tire track eel, and some senegal bichirs, but i think tiretracks grow fast :/
Theyre 3" ATM

Also, my nitrate is at 5ppm, should i do a big water change or do you think that would be ok?

Mikey
 
Have you done a water change after cycling the tank ?
I assume so, because if you hadn't then your nitrate should be pretty much off the chart.

Nitrate at 5ppm is just fine - anything less than 40ppm (for most community fish) is fine.
 
Well i havent done any changes recently, but last week, i did 100% so i could move the tank downstairs...

Thanks :good:
