Kipper Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Hi all, I've been looking through these forums for a couple of months and what a trove of information! Made the jump from classic goldfish and a pleco (all of which grew too large and were rehomed to a friend!), and restocked with plants (inspired by tanks in these forums) and pleased they weren't being ripped out by hungry goldfish. Currently have a 46 litre set-up with 8 dwarf rasboras, 6 cardinals, 2 weeny Oto cats (doing a great job as clean-up crew) and currently 1 sparkling gourami. The other two sparklers have quietly popped their clogs over the last 3 weeks It's very much a low tech system so I supplement with Excel and liquid ferts. Found some plants are thriving, some melt and recover, and some just don't come back! Nothing like trial and error. Ran into the famous P44 at the local Animates store, and left the shop with good advice and less money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
