    It all depends where Wok lives, he could be closer to you than me. Off to fill up my current cylinder now :roll:

    Good, sharing sucks Depending on where Wok lives, I could pick all four up and drop two off to Li@m on my way back. I like to drive 8) I could really use a spare cylinder today, my CO2 is on it's last legs and I'll have to quickly get it refilled before the algae notices :nilly:
  3. Thanks guys, we'll see when they arrive I guess. I just don't want my substrate flying around the tank is all :lol:
  4. One of these. I assume the answer is fish food? :lol:
  5. Has anyone else got an idea on this? How would you block it?
  6. That would be 16:20 :lol: But either 4:20 is okay apparently.

    D'oh :facepalm: Well I'm getting two bottles sent up so I can have a spare, come grab the other one then

    It can't be that hard! I'll send you some telepathic reminders :lol: :slfg: Wow that dog is quite the poser!

    The tank is less than 40cm deep and the Rotala is less than 20cm away from the light. I have a set trace mix but my macros are Potassium phosphate and Potassium nitrate. I'm guessing my iron is in with my trace?

    So he's unable to bring my bottles up?

    I don't mind that it's growing but the leaves look huge! :-? The photo doesn't show it very well but the tops of the rotala had a pink hue to them. Yeah there's two powerglos in there, they don't cover about 7cm each end of the tank though due to the length of the tank

    Wasn't he flat spinning for the first part of his fall?
  13. I recently ordered a couple of wavemakers for my 100L tank but fear they may be too powerful. My question is, has anyone used a dimmer to control the speed of their pumps? I was thinking a simple plug in dimmer for fans would be best but can't find any solid advice out there. Thanks!

    Same, it definitely made me appreciate money more.

    I know but it's too big :nilly: Thanks! Much of the pearling is on the algae and the plants only really pearl for the last few hours of the photoperiod. Pumping in so much CO2 the drop checker is a bright yellow but no one seems too bothered about it. Flow is my biggest issue really

    Day 20 and the tank is looking like this: Tank is being overrun with brown, staghorn, blue/green and green spot algae. The main stuff is either in high light areas like on top of the wood or in the corners where there is no flow. I have two nano wavemakers and an inline diffuser on the way though so hopefully I can remedy these issues. In other news, down to 9 Embers due to a random death. Rotala has well and truly set in, big tidy up planned for Sunday, moving the HM further forward and using Rotala for the whole background. Also the glosso needs a good hacking back and the chain sword too. Anyone know how to deal with chain sword? Can I just cut it?

    Not when it sounds like heavy machine gun fire!
  19. The only issue with sumps in planted tank is the loss of CO2 when the water falls down the sump. This can be offset by of course adding more CO2 and minimised by ensuring your sump aerates the water as little as possible.
  20. Bingo! Chrysler Radiator Cap in Google Images shows that exact item

    Why would you want to?! I could never imagine even cutting my black and orange abysinnian(sp?)'s fur! In other news, crazy heavy rain makes it hard to get to sleep
