i feed my quite often feed the oscars goldfish, tadpolls, big moths and plates. some people dont like doing it but i love it!

i love jags i got a female myself! wow you got hundreds of babys!

hey erol, no need to apologise, i still love the angles. only one of mines got it so it makes it easyer to tell them apart

yeah i wouldnt, whats your glass thinkness?

hey reef you got some fulltank shots? looking good!

yeah i was thinking maybe catch it and try cut the tip off were its bent and maybe it might grow back normal? haha what do you think? i only got it on one of the top fins.

yeah i got 2 off amazonian as well, dont know if they are ture altums but i belive they are ment to be, i wouldnt know the difference either tho :oops: one of them has a funny kink in its top fin, looks just like a birth defect or something still looks cool

i would go to some glass companys, it will be very expencive i would think that it would have to be toughened and very thick. maybe you could add supports vertically though the front veiwing side and have maybe 3 pices of glass insted of the 1, this way it will be stronger and wouldnt need as grunty glass? just an idea

once the glass is toughened then thats it. the only thing you can do is maybe sand about 5-10mm off each edge and even thats doogey.

yeah i say go the oscars! every fish keeper should have them!

didnt mean to upset you :oops: im just saying the extra price out weighs the benifits there are probly heaps of tanks out there around your size and probley bigger and would just been 10mm imo i would rather the 12mm like you suggested with good bracing

i am also in the glass industry, and the price of toughened is far higher than the price of normal float glass. unless you can get it secound hand like alanmin4304 said then its baiscly out of the question as far as the price goes. off the top of my head i think its 2-3x the price as normal

hey reef you got any updated pics?

yeah i added some pottasium to the tank yesterday will let you know how i get on.

yeah they are steep!!

theres no BN,snails or plecs. i notice it in the faster growing plants like the stargrass and the hydrahilia(sp?) its not to bad. i would think lack of light could be it.. theres only about 70watts over a 215l tank and there is also co2 running too.

sweet cos around the house theres millions of them :bounce:

now that the cicada are out ive been catching them and feeding them to my oscars and jag, they seem to like and eat them but im just wondering if they are actual good for them and not bad. thanks for the help

hye just wondering if someone could let me know what the nutrient is that causes plants to form hole in the leaves when they are lacking it?? thanks

i thought that 1 discus is all good other wise about 6 is recomended

yeah 12mm with good bracing will be sweet, ive got 10mm on my 1700x700wx600h and its sweet

heres a few of some of my tanks: heres the oscar tank: heres the ar980 comunity tank, the plant in the back (think its stargrass) grows like a weed just cut a heap out b4 the pic and this is my discus grow out tank, its got quite a few plants that are growing really well and theres only 30w of light over the 250l sorry about the bad pics

yeah you should be abile to see them on the sides. they are just small white worms, is the dirt damp? if not then you better water it. you dont want it wet but not dry if you know what i mean :-? also feed them, white breed with no crust that is wet and soggy

haha love the quote frenchy i think that the problem started when fuzz started getting defencive about everyones quetsions and saying everyone else didnt know what you were talking about. but yes i must say i would love to know how to cycle in 4 hours but i carnt see it possible.

i had problems using silcone too, so i used clear nail polish and it worked a treat!
