HaNs

I leave all mine going

just like any other animal?

Ok so its like garden sprinkler hose black plastic stuff?

Nice tank I love the arch sort of thing

So is pump going inside the canister? Where did you get the pipe on the right from? I think im going to have a go in the morning

Spray silicone and they should be fine Just watch them when you open the lid

Datnoid's nail tetras My dats a dominated by a single female platty lol

I need some back backswimmers and boat men for my tanks! Does anyone have time to collect me a few?

Siphon it, like you would prime any canister. Make sure all the lines are filled with water

I was assuming that the pump was in the tank, now i see its in the canister. I may have a go at one soon for my 220L IMO id put the pump inside the tank and use it to suck. I may got get some Hansen fittings rather than use hot glue to hold the pipes as i dont want 220L on the carpet

My algae is not the same as yours My wont attach its self to anything, i wouldn't mind some like yours Its almost transparent and get out of hand in just a few days

I have a infestation of a long haired algae Plants are covered in it and it looks yuck Plants are doing fine, but yeh Going to base my new set up on yours Sadly i cant go spot lighting as my health is not the best at the moment Stuffed back = no fun Maybe in a month or so

Who me? Thing known as a gland, via the lid. Get them from the electrical wholesalers. Ill chuck some pics up on fishkeepers when i my host gets his shit sorted :roll:

Oh and make sure the pump is on the output so it sucks rather than pushes the water

If anyone has some native that wouldn't mind parting with could you PM me please Just got to rip out my plants and re do the substrate and ill be ready for some native

I made a old pool filter into a canister not long ago. 5000lph super filtration ftw That idea is nice and simple

Iv struggled to find a 6500k energy saver here in Taupo May go have another search today

Ira may know If you run a 150w bulb off a 70w ballast the result is a burned out ballast I have a stuffed up ballast here for a 150w, it only works for 5secs when its cold and makes a noise all the time. I may use some parts out of it for my 38L as its not worth getting it looked at and fixed

I have 300mm x 100mm to fit a light in my 38L Running co2 and a 14w light at the mo and yes i can deal with the heat

Any ideas where to get the gear from here in nz for a decent price? After a 50w for my 38L

What does this "ALGAE" look like and does it have a name?

Im sure its quite acidic You could weigh the pumice down some how. Under a glass box? Tied down in a bag?
