Get a good size bucket or bin something to sit it on outside your window small airline tube with tap, top up your sump every 3 or 4 days.Just don`t forget to turn the tap off

Hi Fay, that would be great if you could tell me where to get a DI unit, Wasp no sorry lived in Huntly all my life. I Just picked up 2 hardy fish today so hope they go ok, still in bag have just added some water from my tank to them.
-
Thankyou to all who helped me understand alittle more . A rolling stone gathers no moss, but a sitting hen wears the feathers off it`s ---
-
Sorry for being so dumb, but what is a DI unit? And where do I get one?
-
So will it be ok to put fish in it now or should I still wait? Don`t want to kill them. We have no filter system on our tap water.
-
Yes my tap water is from rain and nothing is added to our water. I`m out the back of Huntly rural.
-
Well it looks like I will have to just play the WAITING game , if all else fails change water and wait some more :roll: . LOL Could it be that rain water is not as good as the Mighty Waikato River water :lol:
-
No fish yet, nitrite sitting on 0.25 or just alittle under. I`m new to marine thought that i would give it a go as I have 4 tropical tanks.
-
The tank runs it`s own filter system (wool & noddles) I have change 1 bulb to a blue marine and I`ve put a small skimmer in tank not sure if it will do any good.

Hi, I have change my Aquaone 620 tank to a salt water one, it has now been cycling for 8 weeks with coral rock in it (4 small pieces) I`m on rain water so nitrite level was 0 ppm on set up, at 3weeks it was between 0.25 & 0.50 going down to 0.25. and just sat on that for 3 weeks. I have done a 25% and 15% water change after 6 weeks but it goes back up to the 0.25 in 2 days. The PH is 8.2 and has not altered.

Hi Alan, I found a chip on the bottom of the tank looks as though someone tryed to fix it before but left the chipped bit of glass still in the repair, I have removed this so will give a repair job ago. Gizzy

Thankyou Bill, I just brought this tank secondhand filled it up and found out that it leaked ( all over my carpet ). It would have saved a lot of hassles if the people had told me it had a leak or it might still have one, that way I would have filled it outside first. Cheers Jean

Hi, Anyone out there able to tell what sort of silicon to use on my tank and if there`s any differents in the ones from a hardware shop Thanks
-
Well I have added 2 Bristle nose cats & 1 Pelco to my tank today, while at Pet City I had a look at their Discus his mate`s are Cardinal Tetras. I have been testing my tank for PH it`s sitting around the 7.2 mark, for a laugh I tested my tap water just to see what the PH was, as we are on tank water PH 7.0. Cheers to All Gizzy Ps How do I get to the Chat room?
