  4. new one , still painting it not in tank yet
  5. if it was small they can dig in quite well are you still putting food in tank? the only option to find out usually is to take the tank apart slowly and carefully they are very good climbers, scaling glass easily and fit through small holes
  6. yes bikboks way is the best is it something stuck on its barbs?
  7. i have done this before using 10mm poly with no problems using a thick board as well will allow you to hang the back over 20mm as deno said

  17. given the recent introduction and everything else being fine sherlock holmes might pont his finger at another fish, my dear watson
  18. i thought to do a background for the africans tank will try to make it look like limestone face it has 2 large rocks to go under the overhang but may put it in the community tank it is 2.4m x .65cm
  19. wet day, lots of polystyrene, inspiration from si=sphinx so started this one cut, glued, sanded and coated with cemex so far still to make 2 rocks for the overhangs
  20. same as washing gravel but it takes longer
  21. gravel can be a problem in their tank especially if they are picking food off the bottom they seem pretty good at sieving it through their gills etc but i run a coarse sand so if any is ingested it can be passed through the gut
