  8. hi wow 600 bucks my 500 units wasnt that bad then lol all my tanks apart from the turlte have those plastic hoods with lights one thing i will say the older type fish tanks are a lot easier to clean and a lot cheaper to buy ha i got all mine second hand i paid 50 for the 22 litre, 300 for the 90 litre and stand 6 months old and the 60 litre half circle and stand was cheap for 70, not lookin forward to replacing the light tubes when they go ! lol :bounce:
  9. id have heart failure if mine was that high lol mind u the power has gone up this year. Turn everything off at the wall or buy those multiboxes with switches that saves over 100 a year

I burried him, i took the water st8 to the pet shop and it was perfect so I dunno what was wrong with him, I got a tux guppie thats half back or that colour u know what i mean and he has a checkered tail black and white, I was horried when i went back to the pet store where i took the others 2 and seen some the same im sure they were mine lol they were 15 bucks each 2 !!!!!! have your guppies had babies? i miss my figther oh i got one play baby im hoping its a white one !!!!!
  13. omg !!!!!! what am i in for lol i cant really afford power bills over 100 i will have to save power i suppose i honestly thought it was my hot water as i just turned it on and it was a bit hot from the tap but i think its meant to be like that when you first use it PS last yh i only had the 60 litre tank and the turtle was in a 2 foot lol :bounce: and omg at the lady with 1500 units i wont moan at my 500 then
  14. Hi I have 2 tanks with the filters on the top, one had the media in it but I dont buy the cartridges I just put filter wool in there, the other one has no meida and just the wool Do i have to have the media and the cartridges that come with it as they are expensive. Can i just use wool? ta a few of my guppies carked it but i had them over a yh and they were adults when I got them PS adodge I have some really nice tux guppies and some blonde ones with neon yellow tails
  15. hi I have a small tank like that with my guppies in there adodge has seen it. I clean it weekly coz of the small fish, just make sure you dont over crowd it with gold fish u could only really have 3 small ones in there, also wash filter sponge out in the bucket, mine has the drip filter on the top so I just change the wool when its dirty. you could alway try guppies if the gold fish die as they are easy to keep and they breed so you wont have to buy anymore I have abotu 50 babies lol
  16. hi !!!!! how is everyone my power has shot up the last month from about 400 units to 500.

  20. hi i didnt use any cycle stuff or anything like that just added a few fish in 3 weeks then more as time went by had a few ammonia probs lost 3 fish coz of over feeding had no problems with my other tank so I suspect need a new filter soon Also i changed the water every second day that helped
  21. what a nice fern I have a ton of these growing they do better in one tank than the other i think its the light tubes in the new tank are better I have some stuff in my substrate floraite or something that helps but god mine are as big as that but not as busy did u put a whole lot together
  22. hi spoon I think they were nipped when I got them I lost my red tux and snake skin but I had them since last yr and they were fully grown so id say their days were numberd LOL I got a few nice ones i have bred I saw some i took into the pet shop dunno if they were mine coz they were babies when I took them in but they were identical to what i had !
