  1. They are still pretty small, I was thinking about taking some of the bigger ones out as I have lost a adult yellow in one and dont want it to happen again, but the bn in the tank love them so I dont know just yet. The 3d background works great, the dems and yellows have there own little spot so they cant see each other. one of the shellies has claimed a big ledge rite up top, was thinking about putting a few shells up there to make it a bit more happy
  2. This is my dem/yellow/shellie tank I made roughly 750 ltrs, its 4 foot long approx 500 ltrs, the rest is in the sump The fish are still young there is around 25-30 dems, and 7ish yellows 5 shellies I hope you enjoy it
  3. Pfft study is over rated! I am sure I can get this degree on hopes and dreams :sml1: :sml1:
  4. bored procrasting study same thing isnt it? Im planing on finding any possible gap and filling it with java fern. to hopfuly block off the holes.
  5. Excellent, I will keep that in mind when it comes to fish selection About a tube of silicone, every stone got siliconed, started from the back and then filled in any gaps. most of it is only 2 deep some is 3 layers
  6. hopefuly this works :bounce:
  7. I will get a couple pics up asap, just gota go borrow a camera from my mate as my one got stolen. Dam I was thinking about emerald corys :slfg: I hadnt done any research into them I just thought that they looked cool when I sore them the other day. I was planing on at least 5 corys for the group. Buying fish that get bigger does give a great reason for a new project tank...
  8. and decided to make a small tank(540w x 430l x 240 h) from some glass I got given from work, origianaly it was ment to be a fry tank but as the time went by it go no use. so the other day when I was ment to be studying but insteed I started looking through youtube for ideas for a future cichlid tank, I sore a tank with a real rock background and thought strait away that the little tank that I made months ago would look rad with something like that. So the thoughts became a brain storm session and within a week my little fry tank had a background on it. hmmm now what to do with it I think??? Plants, I have wanted to have a play with plants for some time so planting this bugger out was the new plan. :thup: I had a spare light, am happy with a DIY co2 unit for now and had a bag of peat floating about, so I went to Mitre10 looking for some of this daltons stuff everyone talks about, but couldnt find any. so I ended up geting a bag of aquatic plant soil, in a white bag for $11. has anyone used this before? Will it help or hinder my plants and fish? The lady said it should be fine so I trusted her.So far this tank has cost me only about $20 which I think is pretty cool :happy1: So I worked out that I had a very small peice of javefern floating somewhere and I can steal some dwarf sag off my flatmate, 2 plants sorted. Because of the size of the tank I want only to have 3 or maybe 4 types of plants, 1 being the sag, one being the javafern on the back ground and was thinking about some type of crypt and/or Polysperma. any issues thus far with my plan? Fish wise I was looking at geting a group of corydoras and some type of guppie/ some corydoras and a pair of Apisto's (dont know what sort yet) or last option some croydoras and some type of ram (again unsure of type) Does anybody see any issues with any of these combinations? Any help any experience any thoughts please let me know !
  9. Dont we promote undercutting shops when people sell fish privatly? or when we give each other tips on natural remadies to fix stuff insteed of going and buying off the shelf products
  10. Shops making more then a fair profit margin??? Knowing that they can charge what they want because somebody/lots of people will buy it because nobody else can get it or people are to lazy to shop around or just pure greed? Isnt that what business is all about, making profit for your shareholders?
  11. I would be watching if i was a fish as well :slfg:
  12. I used to keep my turtles in my room for that exact reason. hey babe, I have some turtles do you want to see them? sure okay come upstairs to my room ill show you them....... room dimmly lit... a sublte trickling of water...... works like a charm
