  1. Perhaps an identical picture from Google?
  2. Top right corner looks like the best male I've bred, but bigger with smaller fins.

    Insurance covered it today, have that area of carpet pulled up with some kind of heat fans underneath it. Room is shut but really musty and humid when I went in there. Not a cent out of pocket except perhaps a larger power bill :oops:

    Thanks Glosso was from WoW in Hamilton, recently purchased the lileopolis and hairgrass from HFF Mt Roskill, originally got the H. polysperma from HFF Albany, my first ever aquarium plant about 3 years ago
  5. Yes, I know. But there are some people who read "the more lights the better" and think "Hmm... lets blast my tank".
  6. Within reason. A 1000w MH over a 2ft tank is probably going to burn everything underneath it
  7. :lol: You should have heard my string of words after only a 54L spill, not a spare room though. Good luck with the clean up, towels came in handy for us.
  8. Ooo! I wish I had one Simply, the golden ratio is about 1:2 so a 3ft tank would have it's focal point 1ft in from the left or right. I think. HTH

    Hello from Dunedin

    Welcome. Start questioning :lol:
  10. Oh man... want Get it right :roll: :lol: But seriously, those are some damn fine fish.
  11. Hygrophila polysperma is IMO the best there is. Can't really think of any others right now :-?
  12. Feel free to PM anytime, same for people who need avatars or a few pictures resized 8) Sorry I can't help with an ID though
  13. They need to be a maximum of 640 pixels wide, no more. I've saved you the hassle and done it for you, hosted on my PhotoBucket if you don't mind 8)
  14. Yeah, make sure you split them up well, like this so they spread quickly and stay free of algae.

    Well, it's a large surface area. Will probably have to empty the tank and move it to get all of it. Left a heater on all day but it hasn't helped much, anything else we can do? Thanks
  16. Maybe some SPCA fans will go down, buy a shot and take it home :lol:

    Big problem this morning. Outlet on the right (why couldn't it be the intake?!) fell out of the tank :-? Thank fully I used the shorter side of the intake inside the tank and the heater was literally millimetres bellow that. 54 litres of water on the carpet isn't heaps but still a pain. I opened up the canister into a bucket until we can sort something out. What a way to start the day :roll:
  18. I was running 3 of these over Glosso, apart from the algae it was doing well. In your setup I think the single bulb would be sufficient, seeing as it's less than 1/3 of the tank I was doing it in. Good luck.
