I have just moved about 50 fish, and 4 tanks from Whangarei to Katikati BOP, and thanks to the advise on here I only lost 1 tetra :bounce: :bounce:

I was planning on doing that, I don't really like built in one's either. But which of the other 2 filters would be best to use, or do I need to run both of them due to the size of the tank?

Hi, I have axolotls. Welcome

Can someone please help. I just got a second hand Aqua one UFO 880 tank. The problem is that it came with a Aqua one AT-882 filter a Via Aqua 650 canister filter, and a standard drip type filter in the lid. This seems like alot of filters, can someone please tell me how I connect it all up? Looking on the net, it only seemed to come with the drip type filter, and I have no experience with canisters.

I made mine using 2x4 LVL (Laminate Veneer Lumber) it has the versility of wood, and is stronger than steel.

Thats a good thought :bounce: , has anyone tryed these ?http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=206258118

Have you thought of using an undergravel filter, easy to use, and you get the air flow.

They are great looking discus, I'm envyious

Looks good, but will it crash or freeze, and what happens when your computer Implied swearing removed - Admin

Or you could get some stainless steel mesh from mitre 10, and use stones or grave to hold it in place at the bottom and a couple of spots of silicon to hold it in place at the top.

Yea they love it, I feed my 2 liver and heart all the time.

Check out this site, it has some good instructions and information http://www.qsl.net/w2wdx/aquaria/diyco2.html

Pardon my ignorance, but do you get a yeast smell using the yeast system?

They look fantastic.

I got some yesterday, used a hand blender, and they all went crazy over it.

Looks great, will have to try it

Can you use sheep or chicken hearts? or does it have to be cow heart?

Some Supermarkets will give you poly boxes that the seafood or veg come in. It saves them having to dispose to them.

I have a 5hr drive coming up soon, and have 7 tanks to move. The advice you all are giving has possibly safed me from making some mistakes.

The males do get agressive during breeding. This site has alot of info about gourami's and breeding them. http://www.aquaticcommunity.com/gourami/ Hope it helps

I have just breed some pearl gourami's and was reccommended this site http://www.aquaticcommunity.com/gourami/ In my tank I'm using an undergravel filter and a 300l/hr filter, and they seem happy.

Good luck, hopefully you will have good news for us.

For small outages, I'm not sure, but a computer UPS unit might work, at least for a few hours. You also know it will come on as soon as the power goes off.
