  1. Wow, good luck. PS, is there a difference between royal farlowella and whiptail? Mine was labelled farlowella but looks like a whip...
  2. Wood: I've always put mine straight in, there shouldn't really be a problem with it unless the water is polluted.. oak leaves not sure, never tried them plecos ottos and loaches plecos aren't the best algae eaters, bristlenose are fine but I believe they become lazy as they grow bigger (15cm max I think), ottos are a good bet, but if you do some research You'll prbably find that they can sometimes die for no reason, so thats a risk but they aren't super expensive. Hillstream loach, if its the same thing as I have (labelled borneo sucker) it shouldn't grow more than 3-4cm, well mine hasn't anyway and it is fine living in 29* water. cycling imo, overated. :lol: but thats just me.
  3. I love your tanks! I wish I had your skills. lol
  4. Boat hull =/= aquarium. Anyone know of any they have used?
  5. Can't really vacuum the sand. =P If anything, the ghost knife would have covered it up as his entrance to his hiding spot was right there. But he's going now.
  6. Really? For how much? By this you mean 4 t5s right? not replacing the old 2?
  7. Tank is the 240L juwel rio, so 2 x t5 HO, I THINK its 50cm tall, no idea on K rating, and those really deep ones are new plantlets. Should Hopefully get a gas can this week for pressurized co2. Edit: lights on for 10hrs. (on a timer)
  8. Alan, that last sword is the one I was trying to describe to you, if you remember. What should I do about the struggling sag? I would quite like it as a carpet, but if its not doing well...
  9. I have, He said he had some I could borrow, told me to ring him, I put it off and forgot, I pm'd again and said I could come and get it whenever, but I'm afraid I may have wasted his time and now he doesn't wanna give it to me. Which is fair enough. :oops:
  10. which means they don't know the outcome, which means they don't know!
  11. Cheers, the sag has always been like that, admittedly this is really the first chance it has had to really grow, as in my old tank the light was crap and lately I've still been moving them around. But that is how it has always looked.
  12. Probably, I went to mitre 10, they didn't know, a person rang up a lot for people for me, but they all told her that they "Can't recommend it" which means they have no idea..
  13. Some more plants I need ID for... What kind of sag is this? Sold as bleheri, but I'm not sure. And this one, Had it for years...
  14. They do, my 240 has 2 x 54 t5 HO
  15. I have a juwel 240, I agree with phoenix 100%. The filters are good, lights are good, fun to set up, all round good tank. Never had any problems with mine.
