It will grow over gravel.
-
Aphids are a good food also--I forgot about them---so dam cold down here at the moment there aren't any around but they are popular when available.

Is there any way of getting rid of java/christmas moss?

There are usually a lot of people looking for it so it should be easy enough to sell or give away. -
Acid water supplies corrode copper and brass so Local Authorities keep the water slightly alkali
-
It will grow but the bigger the stones the harder it is to plant---very small plant with very small roots.
-
So that is not a picture of you then?

I spent years inspecting properties and if I had come across a garage like that I probably would have congratulated the people. Given a few years he will no doubt come accross some real garages. I have seen food premises worse than that. He should come and look at my garage---that would give him something to write letters about.

The guy is a plonker.

Agree. It should come right by itself, just try to keep the nutrient down in the water with water changes and avoid over feeding.
-
You could probably use the existing ballast to drive two 3 ft and one 2 foot lights or two 3 ft and two 1ft lights depending on the ballast.
-
It is probably brown algae if it is also on the glass
-
Fresh noodles anyone?
-
You cannot grow plants with the lights on 24/7 as they need a rest period. I push the lighting more than most but only go 17/7.

The end braces don't do much. It is the front and back ones that are important.
-
When I was making tanks, the ones we were asked to repair generally broke next to the centre brace.
-
I wouldn't overdrive them. Sell it and get a 3 foot one.
-
Mosses feed through the leaves so need nutrient in the water. You do need all three---nutrient, carbon and light. One or two is no use.
-
I would be wanting Euro bracing on a tank that size.
-
Killies be da one
-
Do you have snails?
-
It was a long time ago. It got more and more difficult until they gave the idea away
-
The easiest way is to add sodium thiosulphate then you know there is none.
-
So long as someone is breeding, them that is the important thing.

I have tried pure rainwater, rainwater with peat and mixtures of tap and rainwater with and without peat. I gave some of my Chocs away and they produced about 60 eggs last time I heard in the same tap water as mine. I will stay with the ones that will breed for me.
