tel Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 take a 70lt tank and cycle till all readings are good.add a new eheim 600lt/hr powerhead.introduce a yellow tail damsel and leave to sit for 8 weeks.come home from work all enthused about my new tank im planning and buying fittings for.check in with mr fish,obviously hiding so add some food to entice him out.he doesnt respond so use a torch to look in rockwork,failing that pull all rockwork out and search.at this point notice powerhead doesnt seem to be working very well............
