When he did the piping I assumed he'd have a sump or something though?
i thought that was the genies part as half of the tank is literally the sump. all the space behind the rock wall is filled with bio ball.
like everyone else said should have been much deeper.
nice selection of plants but pretty randomly picked and just as randomly planted. not my choice of substrate especially if ur goin to have plants.
i thought he was goin to hang those lights especially when it looks like he has the wires hanging from the sealing waiting for them. And maybe its just me but i dont like it when ppl stock 30 odd fish all at once.

how long is several days? it can take up to 6 days for colder temperature.

10/10 for filtering and rock work but the rest IMO is pretty shocking. with the amount of $$ they throw at it most of us could have done a much better job.
i was impressed till they started putting down the plants.

Traditionally I believe it's a Maori term for a baby (either sex). Just while here on the topic of words etc., gender refers to what orientation someone's sexuality is, sex refers to the purely physical characteristics that make up either a male or female. Bubba also featured on Forrest Gump but he was a grown man.
no that cant be right as there is no letter B or b sounds in the Maori language. found this after googling the word.

but at the end of the day it is still a bubba fish, just as a cub is a bubba lion or tiger.
So it is still correct, just people expressing themselves in different ways. i know what you mean caryl, but it is all that expression stuff.
English is not my first language and i was taught bubba means first male sibling? from the word brother.:-?

so u have half a dozen in a trap and left the rest with the father? anything u did that may have trigger the spawn?

what about Hemianthus callitrichoides
i wish but doubt we'll ever get them because of glossostigma elatinoides. it can pretty much grow where ever glosso is in the wild.
-
Hemianthus Micranthemoides / Micranthemum Micranthemoides yes
Cryptocoryne wendtii 'green' yes
Blyxa echinosperma dont know
Tonina sp. yes but not allowed i think

ummmm... I er, don't change my WCMM tank water.. just top it off.
I have a sponge filter, which keeps my water clean.
.
me too. some of them dont even have the sponge filter just java moss

so the plants are stuffed arent they? im not going to fix them with new bulbs aye? will buy sum new plants when i get bulbs next week.
thanks for the help every1
nope not at all. in fact i will leave them in and if they dont come right with the new lighting then its something else. i've bought plants on line that showed up in alot worse condition then that.
-
L128?? nice plec
-
yes you are right one of the bulbs is a bluey one and the other is 10000k, cant see the k rating on the 3rd, i am waiting for mastertrade to open back up so i can go get 3 6500k/8000k daylight bulbs. bulbs have only been going bout 2 months.
IMO that should do the trick, it looks to me u its just lack of lighting as i dont see any sign of BBA.
if u have BBA u will know it as its not a subtle algae and for some reason always around the heaters if u get them.
-
have u tryed those small world filters the ones i like sharronpaul had for sale but cant fine them any where
they still have heaps for sale at gold fish pagoda. not far from where u work smcoleman.
how many fish are u goin to keep in those 1 foots? cuz i dont use any filtration on my 1 foot just java moss.
-
WOW thats some nice pieces u've got there.

AR850 is 82x44x58cm, 155 Litres right?
the lighting looks a bit dim
try to aim for at the very least 1watt per 2 litres which would properly be all the tubes. if all the tubes are standard then one of the tubes would be around 14000K, a blue/purple color which is useless for growing plants.
whats the other two tubes? and how old are they?. good lighting is a must for growing plants with out it everything else u do is just a waste of time.

for marine seb, nice tank

just thought i'll share this with all the arrow lovers here. over a year ago i found a Internet address on my arowana book which lead me to Steven [authur] he had an comment box where u could ask of suggest what u would like to know about arowanas and to my surprise i was replayed with answers to my question. the page does no longer exists as the book is almost finished but he has been keeping me up to date ever since.
[link below] i have the 3rd book and is great, the second book is the one coming out soon and it has been a long wait.

One of my dive buddies liked to hold them like a rugby ball and pretend he was running in the back line
:lol: :lol:
the ones with spikes are porcupinefish, the ones with out are pufferfish.
i've seen porcupinefish been sold at HFF albany a few times. not sure if they have a puffer in kellyteltons but i know they have a cowfish in their poisons tank which looks similar to a puffer fish when not puffed.
Whats a good brand of heater

they are differently submersible, most of my heaters are AquaOne/ViaAqua. haven't failed yet but they're pretty average as far as keeping temperature steady.
Jebo is the only brand that has failed on me. but when it does work its probly just as good as AquaOne but why take the risk when both brand cost the same.
AquaOne stainless steel is pretty good but i only have one so cant really judge.
Weipro is by far the best out of all the ones i've tried but hard to find these days.
Jagerbit over rated i think as i personally don't find it that much better and cost over twice the price.
Elite cool looking design but the novelty wears off and the large round head becomes an eye sore.
i am currently trying these out i got bought over from China and seem to be working really REALLY well. will be getting more if it stays working as it is.
