it fits nicely in the rear compartment it worked well enough for the puffers setup the tank swings from 24.8 on cooler mornings to :facepalm: 27.4 on warm afternoons mostly because the room heats up in the afternoon sun, as were heading towards winter this shouldn't be two much of a problem edit: tank is currently 26.8 corals dont seem to mind it and the turbo snails are still turboing :sml2:

Time to start this thread. (Photos are just taken with my phone) This is what the tank looked like 2 weeks ago just after i took out some FW puffers: as you can see not a marine tank :slfg: tank dimensions : 17.5cm X 23cm X 23.5cm Tank Volume ~ 9.5L Time to upgrade the equipment this is currently whats in the tank: So far expenditure is: Tank Boyu LED arts model ME-175A - $95 (tank includes a 150L/HR pump) Aqua one Maxi 101 power head (400L/HR) - $22 Heater Aqua one 25W- $25 Aqua one infinity AP-150R air pump (100L/HR) -$13 Dymax IQ skimmer - $50 Digital thermometer - $10 By far the biggest expense: Fluval Sea Marine and Reef Performance LED -$280 Total hardware cost to date - $495

Chiang mai in northern Thailand this is the website for the foundation that runs the park and other projects in Asia http://www.saveelephant.org/

I got up to quite a bit overseas (mostly trouble) but some of the not so troublesome things I did was: spent some time in Asia teaching english and working in a sanctuary for elephants for about 6 months Then went to Argentina for a few months to watch the orca hunting south american sea lions hope those img links work :smln:

thanks colour_genes Livingart good to see you again

Hey everyone A few people on here may remember me from a few years ago. after not having a take at uni and traveling for a few years I've got back into fish keeping :happy1: currently I have a 2 foot planted tank and in the process of converting my pico cube (9L) which had dwarf puffers in to a pico reef :bounce:

ok thanks for that alan

so im culturing some fruit flys in a mixture that i got a recipie for on the internet 1 part sugure 2 part milk pouder and 3 parts instant potato mash to 6 parts water its been going for about a week now but is starting to smell like its fermenting is this normal for fruit fly cultures? the adult flys seem to be fine it there.

thanks insect direct will keep that in mind

in terms of branches are apple tree branches ok or are they bad for frogs?

Hey all been a long time from my last post. me and a flat mate got some tadpole's a few weeks ago from a pet shop down here and there just at the stage where they can climb out of water :happy1: judgeing from size and colour i think there Whistling tree frogs. but i have a few questions is a small exoterra terrium an ok size for 4 of these little guys once there hopping arround? and i was thinking of putting a few small carnivirous plants (sundue and a pitcher) and a few (small) tree branches in for them would this cause any problems? tank will be lit with a small jebo clip on light and most likely have a sphagnum moss does anybody else use sphagnum moss with their frogs? Thanks in advance for any help/advice

thanks everyone for the help ill look for some 10000K and 18000K bulbs :bounce:

well i haven't fully decided yet :oops: plants that i like that dont grow how i want them to are Stargrass, Ambulia, Ludwigia, because they grow very fast and the lower leaves die off :evil: other plants ill have are a sword plant and the usual java fern / Anubias in the mid ground and a Glossostigma carpet in the front if the lights strong enough

:lol: maybe thought it would be a bit much posting that to
