Hi all I'm going to be clearing out my tank a bit, so have a bunch of plants to give away. I'm not sure of quantities, but will try and give an...
These things happen. Thank goodness for a generator though, otherwise we'd have a much bigger problem. I'm just glad i don't have any fish...
Had an interesting time lately - our power went out at about 1am yesterday morning. We thought it was just a power failure, which happens quite...
If you can make sure that the sumo doesn't overflow during a power outage, it should work ok. Though it won't be able to hold that much biological...
That's my thought - live bearers and rift lake cichlids :D
I've only got 1 tank going at the moment with no livestock, just plants, so i've barely paid it any attention. Mostly all i've done is top up and...
I've noticed a funny thing with our water. About a month ago we shifted from Municipal water to borehole water after getting the pump replaced....
For me, i've found Anubias did a lot better with regular water changes. I think it's due to the active substrate - regular water changes keep the...
It depends on the plants - most of them can do just fine with being planted a little deeper than you think. What can also help a bit is to dig a...

I would definitely see about doing something for your substrate. It looks pretty deep in some areas, so there might be a build up of mulm,...
I'd leave the little voids - shrimp and fish like having safe spots to hide in case they are stressed. There will probably be some mulm build up...
Welcome @Marike ! I usually get most of my aquarium goods from Aqua Empire in Randpark Ridge, as they almost always have everything i need. For...
I don't think this is too necessary - best to keep it as simple as possible. It can take a while for active soils to pull out the carbonate that...
Yup. Find the surface area of the bottom of the aquarium in cm2, times that by the desired height of the substrate also in cm, and that will tell...
With proper EI dosing, apparently you don't even need a nutrient rich substrate. The dosing will provide the plants with all they need, and...
I do love the looks of Congo tetras - the finnage on the males is gorgeous
I've been feeding my betta TetraMin granules for almost 3 years now, and it works a treat. Using it as a staple food with some frozen or live...
