  1. All I have left is a few guppies, breeding groups of columbian tetras, leopard danio, ruby barbs, cherry barbs, blue mystery snails, brown bristle nose and a few assorted plants. I lost my hobby time when I started my business. One day I will pick it all back up again
  2. I would give away my first born for a Festae
  3. Not from there, but i run dry ferts in my planted tank
  4. A bit bigger would probably be better, but it would depend on the foot print.
  5. Sterbai get bigger and are much more active than peppered. IMO they are a far superior cory to peppered.
  6. I used a similar system in my 750L, although the plants went amazing I went through a bottle (9kg) about every 5 weeks so was far from effective. I have considered doing another similar type thing if I can not find a pre made system
  7. So I am struggling away to work out what type of co2 diffusing method I am going to use on my next tank. Tank is around 900L, any thoughts or ideas please?

    Fish food

    Add a bit of garlic to your mix, garlic is just as good for fish as it is for humans from my understanding.
  9. Thanks for that link Adrienne, I never knew it existed and will be having a good look through it. Back to the OP, yes your yellow looks crook as, definitely give the wormer above a go.

    African cichlid

    After playing around with a few different combos, it is defiantly possible to mix them, but in my opinion I think it is best not to do so. Tangs are not from Lake Malawi, they are from Lake Tanganyika. Depending on your foot print on your 240, you could do a male peacock show tank, a dwarf tang tank, or maybe a small mixed mbuna tank- yellows, rusty, snow white etc. But in all honesty, your 240 is on the smaller size for Africans- not impossible, but does throw up a bit more issues.
  11. How long has it been running for? Diatoms (brown algae) is pretty standard in new tanks and as it matures the algae will go. All other suggestions are pretty on point!
  12. If you cut the polysperma in half and re plant them that will help. Try to avoid stems from shops as a start as sometimes it is hard to convert them to submersed growth. If you can find some floating indian fern grab some of that as it will suck out nutrients fast and block out some light. Also, that sword will get giant, and will dominate the tank in no time, maybe swap it for a standard amazon sword. What city are you traveling to?
  13. I wish peple had registered there breeding!
  14. "red devil" could well be here, but mixed with Midas, so unsure of purity. Max, should have a better idea about the killies than most I would think.
  15. was about to say A.hansbaenschi is here, I sold one last week
  16. Empress, t reef, dems, maingiano and rusty confirmed. Sulphur headed is a dubious one as it is here, but how pure it is is unknown. N. pulcher is rumored to be here, I have spoken to a couple people who's Mayes mate has them.... but I have not seen confirmation of them myself. However I do trust the people who said it.
  17. That plant should be pretty easy to get hold of in shops, try New Pupuke Aquarium Center and Hollywood Fish Farm. I got some from Redwood Aquatics a couple months back as well. Normally goes for about $3-4 a bunch of 3 or 4 so pretty cheap.
  18. Hello, love the name pinchy
