    it comes out of something you can't buy here a vinegar bottle and you shake it on like you would salt over both the fish and chips the amount varies according to taste.(better bring one with you). jim.
  6. I use plant-gro and get excellent growth and much cheaper than flourish. No probs with holes in plants. I also have nothing under gravel. ph 7.3 30% water changes twice weekly and 9 bala sharks( i have been told they love to snack on plants). jim.
  7. 60 gal is about 260 ltrs,how many fish in total and what size?,how often are your water changes? I personally believe water changes to be more important than meds. jim.

    fish and chips are awesome here if you find a good shop,chinese is different cos they mix the vege's in with the meat and indian is not in the same league but if you put a steak or burger on the barbie and invite a few friends you will have a wonderful takeaway. Oh and don't worry about the vinegar you only have to ask for it. As for the mushie peas comment isn't that a Yorkshire thing not Geordie? We also have pizza hutt,mcdonalds,burger king,wendy's and kfc. jim.
