Could you maybe post a close up pic of the strip with the light itself switched off? It looks like you might have a SMD3528 strip.
What are the technical details of the strips you guys bought and how much did you pay? I got one of the Lumeno strips from Makro for my nano tank...
For true harmony you'd have to shift the driftwood to the left and always abide by the rule of thirds. I would recommend putting the wood on a...
I've wondered about freshwater algae scrubbers too, but being that we can grow plants in the display in most freshwater tanks i don't know if it's...
Cories of similar sizes seem to socialise a bit. I had pandas with a few other types and they all got along. But definitely get them in a group,...
Have you calculated how many liters each compartment is? Because it's basically like a nice big canister filter at the moment. Oh ja, can you...
If you can afford it I'd recommend putting more biological media in your sump. The best bet would most likely be to put a few bags of Sera Siporax...
Aside from building little robots I can't think of an easy way to clean the glass :P
I'm well aware of that, that's why you seal the hole when you've got the air out. You could easily attach an air line nipple to the bridge and...
The air hole obviously wouldn't stay open. It would be used to suck the air out and then you seal it. Covering the ends of the bridge would likely...
So that you have a way to remove the air in the tube and replace it with water
Cool looking bridge you have there, how are you going to get the water in though? Is there a bleed hole? The simplest design I've seen so far is...
300w is plenty, maybe the heater's thermometer is broken. Try another heater and see what you get
I've never had issues with otos eating Amazons, but I suppose if you starve them then they'll turn to eating the Amazons. They're generally...
This was posted on Practical Fishkeeping, it's a great article but I don't know how many of these fish we can actually get in SA: 10 Best Algae...
Sounds great, when do we see some pics? And how many of each type have you got in the tank now?
Harlequins are known jumpers, I've lost quite a few to suicide already. I would recommend if you want an invisible solution that you get some...
Are those Harlequin Rasboras? There should be 3 or 4 types available but I've only ever seen 2 in Gauteng. They should colour up over time though.
I've kept different types of cories together before and some of them took to each other, but I can't say it's universal. You'd most likely be best...
That's a great idea making a box for the wires and ballasts to go into, it should save you lots of hassles in the long run
