I could be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure that's a loach, not a pleco in your profile pic. The Hillstream loach is also known as a butterfly loach,...
Hopefully resealing a 3ft tank so i can move my guppies from the 2ft to the 3ft.
Ahh, so were you the reason I couldn't get through to them? I just spoke to them as well. R102 a fish and about 7-8cm big already.
I just spoke to Mark - They are R102 each and are apparently about 7-8cm big. I'm probably going to go pick up a pair first thing on Saturday morning.
@symphysodon - I second that - Also, how many of them do you have?
Looks like Petstop might have some of them? awesome new stock!!!!!! Of course, it would help if they can give an L number, but we'll see :) I'm...
I would disagree with that - Bonding a viewing window with fibreglass is a nightmare and it is unnecessary. Just paint the inside of your pond...
Have a look at this thread for a DIY overflow pipe: DIY Overflow and sump Using - Professor Dirk Bellstedt Designs It uses designs from page 10...
Considering the fact that we were discussing whether a canister was better than a sump, it seemed implied. My mistake. That's the beauty of a...
While I don't have personal experience with canisters, I know the recommended rate for canisters is a turnover of 4-5 times your water volume per...
Welcome to my world... Third time I see a setup like this that would be exactly what I'm looking for and it's in the cape...
The following post discusses doing an overflow without having to drill a hole or risk flooding. I've already built this overflow (For less than a...
I don't have one yet, but I like the description :) I also use Tapatalk and while it crashes occasionally, I would still recommend it - I just...
I'm not sure what you'd pay for a 1600-2000l/h canister filter, but for the sump, you basically need to factor in the cost for the glass, a return...
I would agree with that. If you have a tall tank, you're looking at pumping water to a height of close to 2 meters (0.6-0.8 from ground to bottom...
I've heard lots of bad things about bio-balls. Essentially, it seems that they do OK, but you can do much better (The plastic apparently doesn't...
You can't really say. You can probably calculate the max values, but a lot depends on ambient temps. If the room temp stays a couple degrees...
Agreed. At the scale we do it at, if you're not in it for the fun, it's definitely not worth it. Which is basically what I was trying to get at -...
If you consider the amount of guppies sold and the ease of keeping them, I would say that for the average hobbyist, guppies could possibly be more...
Somebody has to do it :) Personally, I just like guppies. Why would anybody breed discus? I have no interest in them :suspicious:
