its nearly uprooting my plants and my fish cant swim very well

i have an aquaone AT-882 and it is putting out a very strong current. is there anyway to weaken it a little bit?

no fishes yet, but i am going to cycle it. Ill put some filter media over as well.

finally got it set up and planted today. Here it is... Its a little cloudy but im happy!

i know only one male, i think i may just forget about giving him a girlfriend.

Does anyone know where i may be able to get a GBN in Wellington?

so i would probably just be better off with a male?

yeah i wasnt to sure on the shark, what if if have two female bettas? Im hoping that i get nice angels, but i do have a breeding net and an extra tank just in case. What other fish do you think would go with this selection. My boyfriend likes swordtails, so i was contemplating some of them. Would a couple of Kribs play nice?

oh and here is the tank and the stand. im just finishing off the hood tonight. and waiting to get some plants and then i will actually fill it.

so i have been trying to decide on fish. this is what i have come up with... 1 male and 1 female betta 3 dwarf gouramis 4 angel fish 8 Harlaquin Rasbora 1 Red tailed shark 1 Bristlenose I will eventually add these to my 250L tank How does this sound?

does anyone know about aqua one AT-882 filters? Ive just got one and there is a little gap in it with clips and i wanna know what they are for, it doesnt say in the manual. Could they be for a heater?

i just hope it will hold the weight of the tank :lol:

platies, betta and honey gouramis. ive had guppies and neons. I wanna try something a little different this time

so we have added a back and sides now. I cant add cupboards though because i wont be able to open them where it will be.

i just thought that they looked really cool and it was not something i had come across before and since i am in the process of setting up a new tank, i was thinking they may be a very cool edition.

too many choices!!!!

i like kribs

i heard that i layer of daltons aquatic mix, followed by a layer of daltons propagating sand then topped by gravel is good. What do you guys think?

does anyone in welly have some they would consider selling to me?

Thats amazing that i never noticed that :lol: Im not sure which one i saw i just thought that it looked really cool. can they be kept in a community?

I just saw a pic of a killifish and i want one! Do we get them in NZ???

yeah i was going to go for a dual 3 ft. are chilids hard to keep? do they get on well with other fish?

i know animates is going to be so packed. Its in my diary already! I was thinking angels, coz my boyfriend like them, and he also likes swordtails, they can be his fish. I like bettas and i have some honey gouramis at the mo. I like chilids but i am not to sure about them. :-? Im still quite undecided.

yeah i was going to put water in, and some gravel. I want to do a planted tank so i will try to invest in a decent light, but i will also make sure i dont get any with high light requirements. Im not sure on fishies yet, will most likely be a community tank. Any suggestions on what fishies i should have?

Heres the stand... Also what are some good plants to use?
