Crypt forest on inert substrate, anubias glued on a nice big hardscape. Both plants are slow growing. Nothing that might shed and block a filter....
they might but if you are anything like me, I treat it like lego - guestimate sizes and see what fits, return what doesnt. A local place would be...
Thanks @Ebrahim that is where I went. Great selection and good service.
thanks just picked it up :) and it’s currently charging. I’ll let the thread know how it goes. [ATTACH]
looks good in theory - I might want to rather go for deep cycle batteries. They are made specifically for running a load for longer periods of time.
Yup - my problem is more to do with keeping water levels in the sump consistent. Keeping fish and beneficial bacteria alive is probably only a...
Does it plug directly into mains or does it have an ac/dc adapter thing that looks like this: [ATTACH] Or like this: [ATTACH] If it plugs...
Hmmm, putting 2 new batteries into my old UPS for R450 is probably a good start. Then, if that doesnt work I can start saving for the fancy...
Takealot has deep cycle 12v 7ah for R240. Plus that controller, looking at R2300ish all in :(

Anyone know where I can get a bulkhead in Cape Town? I drilled a 50mm hole in my sump (yay) on the side to serve as an overflow. Do they have a...
Thanks look like these were taken about 500m apart :) But yes Cape Town does make it easy sometimes

Does anyone know a brand of heater that comes with a longer than usual cord? I want to dunk a heater into my water tank, which is 1m deep, plus...
Comfy chair, records, sound system, ac, sounds like heaven!
I decided to break down and move my tank and sump last week because I was sick of having buckets and pipes all around the lounge every weekend. So...
Sorry my bad. You do need dechlorination. I was suggesting a drip system that runs through a carbon filter to remove chemicals. That might be the...

Good idea, probably just a 5 litre bottle would work on a gravity fed RO float valve
