Amazing!
Yeah, I thought it would include the video footage they took over there when I posted the link but it seems that's still coming. Some nice imagery...
Figured I'd post this link at ram HQ haha: [MEDIA] Interesting to see the Israeli farms.
Just watched that video yesterday- amazing. Clearly not budget constrained! Altums are the end game setup- seen some incredible setups on Youtube.
Ok, just bad luck with timing I guess - tested it again and its back to around mid 7 range, from 9 this morning. So, seems to have shot up and...
Ah, so this is only a temporary issue? I did notice bubbles that seemed to resemble soap of all things, wasn't sure what to make of them. I...
Cape Town water (well, Sea Point at least) out of nowhere has a PH of 9.0, way up from the usual +-7.6 reading. Word of warning to anyone living...
Once your tank is established you shouldn't need to use Stability at every WC. Its useful during the early stages of a tank that is building up...
Agree with the others, either route could work. If you do seal it and go with a HOB, you could also use the smaller 2ft as a quarantine tank,...
Yeah I meant if some are newly added, they might still be acclimatising to the tank conditions while the older ones already are. Could be wrong...
Absolutely would and do pay for quality - its the overall price points to be aware of, be they low quality asian imports versus a good local...
Good idea in general to keep aware of prices. I got back into the hobby after quite a few years away and was also a bit stunned. Some prices were...
No problem! Upload some pics once you have some more progress :)
No prob. I'd just consider 2 - 4 Otos to start on the cleaning side of things. I read that its important to buy some that don't appear...
Cool, I'd look into lower maintenance, hardier plants to start off with in general. Some require specific substrates/ root tabs/ fertilisers/...
I think plants would look good in there, with wood and maybe some rocks matching up with the gravel colour? Searching for aquarium scape ideas,...
Just out of interest, some readings from the past week in Cape Town concerning this: 2 day Aged tap: PH +- 7.6 GH: 3 (53.4 ppm) KH: +- 1-2 (18 -...
Jump starting an ancient thread but does anyone in Cape Town have microworms / vinegar eels / brine shrimp or similar that they'd be willing to...
@sarf Sam's Aquarium gets some good stock in, but also some bad. A few sources, as seems to be the case for most LFS. Pet World N1 City has had...
Rams FTW :) Just keep the water parameters right and they will be ok. I love mine. Its worth doing a bit of googling on them. Off the top of my...
