  1. so can you get those ones pictured in blue? Rogan
  2. It has happened in several of my tanks, always on the suction cups... It goes away eventually but its a pain. especially when you disrupt it and it floats around the tank for hours..... IMO i would just try syphoning it out but dont worry about it too much Rogan
  3. mat i saw some in animal antics today Rogan
  4. why dont you buy one off greg (tanks2u) from trademe. he has had a couple 6 x 2 x 2 foot tanks going on their in the past. Many people recomend him for his tank making Rogan
  5. lol i was looking back for that article that luke showed the other night. i got distracted and didnt find it in the end... Good on ya luke Its a very good article Rogan
  6. well i only have one BN in there now as i stole the other for my big tank :lol: Yea he probably is lazy but he aint overfed, i never put anything in for him Rogan
  7. Ok here we go Front view Another view which shows where it is sitting (sorta) Excuse the algae spots on the front :oops: :oops: Needs a water change and a scrape Rogan
  8. yep ive got a stingray filter.... Its WAAAY to big for the size tank its in but it filters it well Rogan
  9. put it this way, if i was you, i would buy the jebo I have bought about 4 jebo heaters (i think) of those people and they are all sweet. The only time i would fork out big $$ for a heater like the jager is when you have a tank full of expensive (as is 100's of dollars) fish. The goldfish hanging on the bottom i dont know alot about as i dont keep goldfish myself but if it was a tetra of some sort then i would keep an eye on it and make sure it doesnt get any worse. It may be a case of it being bullied, infection other that WS as you mentioned, or it may just be acting funny and will be right tomorrow. I wouldnt worry about it untill it got worse... Good idea to get test kits, i got my master test kit off trademe for $45 and $5 postage, it has ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and Ph HTH Rogan
  10. 6 IMO isnt that bad.... a couple of my tanks sit on 6 constantly and the fish are fine If you are really worried about it, try putting some sea shell into the filter (trial and error as to how much) or as ira said, bird grit
  11. the forst link you provided to the jebo heaters, those are the heaters i use!!! The second link is to a far better branded heater of much better quality.... as they say....'you get what you pay for' I havent done a water change in about a month on that little tank.... the water tests perfect though..... Its because of all the plants though Im going to do a water change on it tomorrow though Rogan P.S. not to mention the last time i cleaned out the filter
  12. the piece of air tubing should plug into one of the adaptors provided. there is and adaptor which has a thin piece of the plastic sticking out the top, but, it has a rubber stopper on it when it comes.SO, take this off, and put the air tube on, then you just need to adjust the other end to make it how many bubbles you like HTH Rogan
  13. what is the pH on at the moment?? Rogan
  14. One of the things we havent seen throughout this whole project is the sump, plumbing, pumps.... I would be quite interested to see a few pics of those things if possible freshwest That would be awesome Rogan
  15. The moving of the stones is normal... You may have noticed the bare patch of stones in jimmys tank when you bought it..... As for attacking the plec, jimmy never had any problems with his one, but who knows.... More tanks are always good.... Rogan P.S. is he eating sweet now??
  16. im guessing you would be paying about $80-$90 per bulb but if you sold 10 of the units you would get your money back I would definately buy at least two from you if youdid buy them If i had the contact like you (your mate) i would do it (hint hint ) Rogan
  17. if somebody bought them i would definately buy a couple off them
  18. well i would only use two on one tank (at the most!!!) and MAYBE 1 on another tank... I would sell the rest off and im sure i would get my $$ back... I just cant realy do it right now as i need all my $$ for the fish and plants for the tank.... If anybody is keen to buy them, i would be keen to buy one, or two off them.... Thanks Rogan
  19. Nah those are the most recent pics i have... Took them on the weekend...i should of kept still when i took them so they werent so blurry though Will put up another pic this weekend for ya Rogan
  20. thats my tank that you posted the link too.... I have a fighter, a couple platys, a harlequin and a couple BN BUT the tank is very well planted and the water is perfect because of them.(the plants) You may notice all the algae in the tank (green spots mainly) when the plants werent growing well... now they are pumping the algae is nearly gone. GOOD THINGS TAKE TIME.... If you were to put that many fish into your tank you will have to have it well planted otherwise the nitrites, ammonia etc. will just go through the roof and kill all of your fish. I would start with a fighter, a BN and a few plants, then slowly increase the number of fish with the number of plants that are growing.... You need the be careful and monitor the water parameters during the time so you know if it is handling the new fish or not etc. etc. etc. All i can say is....GOOD LUCK Rogan
  21. Would these be any good for a freshwater setup?? they are 150 Watts At only $50 i can get 16 lights and 16 transformers....just need them shipped then, BUT, because they are so cheap i will be prepared to pay for the shipping Rogan
  22. hmmm. could be the rain we had recently but i dont think it started untill after i did the water change....
