Hi what plants can I get for a PH 7.6 thank you

Is it possible to put Daltons Aquatic compost in an aquarium then sand on top for plants has any one done that before

Hi I have a tank 1.800 long by 600 high 600 deep holds 600 ltrs I want to grow plants with a few cold water fish which led light would you suggest thank you

Thank you for your reply I have a sump for filtration I know goldfish like to sift around in sand was told to be careful with gravel as it can get stuck in there mouths i have more sand than coral will do more home work on the subject

Hi I have a 600ltr tank use to have cichlids thinking going into fancy goldfish will I be able to use silica sand and crushed coral that I had for the cichlids for the goldfish any other help would be appreciated what home made cooked food can I feed them thanks

Hi I am thinking of going into a planted tank with some goldfish I have a sump my main tank holds 600ltrs will this work ok or could some of the plants come away and block the pipe my pipe is a good size one and a half inches

I want to be able to put my fry in the pump section of my sump I have a Jecod pump am I able to get a filter protection to put over the water intake or would that restrict the pump too much thanks

thank you I feel much better now

Can anyone tell me if I need to worry about air bubbles on the edge of the silicon holding my tank together Greg built the tank so I am guessing I have nothing to worry about its about 4yrs old

I think I know what happened my other male dolphin had the same I think they had a massive fight and their wounds got infected my other fish are all fine the 2 male dolphins died

Hi ammonia is 0 nitrite 0 PH between 7.8 and 8 nitrate 10 thanks

Hi does anyone know what this is on my dolphins skin I have had him for several years it look red on the edges any help would be appreciated thanks

Hi I had one of my female blue dolphins stuck in one of thoes cichlid breeding caves I had to pull her out backwards some damage was done on top of her head and looks like underneath as well she is now swimming upside down I have her isolated do you think she will come right in time or would I be best to put her out of her missery thanks

will you sell some of the fish and ship thanks

Thank you I will Do as you say

My tank has been cycling now for 6 weeks Ammonia 0.25 Nitrite was 5 now 0 and nitrates is between 0 and 5 can I put in some fish I have some pink convicts 6 of them 650ltr tank 144ltr sump

Yes I do have patience and will cycle it naturally my fish transfer I will put water from my new tank into a container put the fish to swim around a little then put them into the new tank and hope black beard dosent arrive

Has anyone used nutfafin cycle to cycle their tanks if so is it any good its expensive for a tank and sump of around 750ltrs

Ok thanks for that what will be the best way to transfer the fish over from that tank i have 2 very large dolphins 8 to 9 inches plus 20 others

Hi my old tank which is still running has black beard algae in it am I able to use some of the gunk from that tank to start my new tank off thanks

ok I will do that in a couple of days I think it is flowing allright I just put in some more water in the second chamber I can do more water if power goes off it will not flood I have it marked just need to get a bit more game to turn up the pump and open the valve I like to do that when some one is here to keep an eye on the water level what do you think I could run it at or will you need to see photos first thanks

I have poret foam in the first chamber 10 20 then 30 ppi then polish in between the baffles I put 3kg of bio media the tank is filled and the pump is going I have it running on one I will play around with it to see if I can get it running on 3 or 4 at the moment the water is only about 2 inches above the pump

I am now thinking I will shift the baffles taking away the one on the right shifting the one on the left a couple of inches further to to the left and the middle one little to the left as well that will give me room to put both heaters in the sump at the moment the gap between the baffles is only 45cm not much room for anything between them this other way I will have a bigger gap for my media will I be able to do this so there will only be one gap with a full baffle on the left and the other baffle will still have a gap underneath it
