Now that the plants are in what fish she'll I get. What fish can life in 30l and be happy 6 cardinals? Now if I can just get p. Helfire

 

wow lol this is really heating up. is there any specific format we should follow in the journal? this has actually come at a perfect time, after the crappy test i had today i need a distraction. tell me does the tiger lotus do ok with excel added? or does it melt? i'm assuming that pictures must be taken without hardware? must we put in a background? i think the pics will come out better. hmmm thinking laminated black cardboard.

 

I am leaving the hardware in, since I really cant remove my filter And I have found a nice way of hiding the heater. I'm still deciding what to add fish wise in the tank, need to find something that will do well with a male fighter.

 

@wyvern whiteclouds maybe? or something bottom feeding, khulis could be nice

 

Who has a decent supply of plants these days? Looking at shrimps.co.za, who else?

 

I suspect Khuli's will be to big, but am seriously considering the white clouds.

 

i love them i have a small school in one of my tanks at home and they so funny to watch. the way they intimidate each other the best way to describe it is they flick their fins at each other its so cute lol. what colour is your fighter?

 

Hi ran out to get some food My boy is a red with some blue showing. That is why I didnt want to go for neons, but will the white clouds be ok with a tank at 25 deg?

 

White clouds are the least fussy fish ever. They can be kept in 15 degree water, up to about 29 degree water, so 25 will be fine for them!

 

Yay They have been haunting me since I saw them the first time a few years ago Thanks

 

Done the hardscape (if you can call it that), next some planting then fish and some waiting ...

 

Cool!!! I haven't even started! I have a great idea that will fit into the 1ft only and will look lost in the hex...Hmmm, what to do, what to do...

 

why not just go buy another 1ft? its not too expensive and dont take up much space

 

Or get 2ft and divide it with a piece of glass to get two 1fts...Hehe MTS

 

LOL! This thread has made me set up a temporary nano tank today! I have some HC from shihr, and a little HM from Algae Wizard, a rock and some substrate. Lot's of light and some Tropica ferts... Let's see if I can make it carpet for me. I really hope it does.

Seriously, I have a spare 1ft tank if you want one? @Skye01

 

@Sean J dude if Skye does not take the one foot I am keen...

Little project I am working on...

 

No problem.

 

so amped! It's been four days and my Rotala stems are sprouting roots some of the other plants are not doing as well so I extended the photo period from 7 hours to 12 hours to hopefully help.

Also decreased my excel dose by 50% to see if this might be the cause of my lilaeopsis thinning.

Just enjoying the algae free days I'm having while I can. . .

Added one male and one female platy but stocking will change as soon as I can source some nice schooling fish. . .

 

@Sean J dude, it was nice meeting you yesterday. it was cool to meet someone who puts the hobby before profits. good luck with hc.. it can be very fustrating..

 

I did a cruel and terrible thing (well at least my male fighter seems to thing so - he is flaring at me if I come close to the tank ) I added my white clouds yesterday and what a difference it makes to the tank. I can let it slip that I did finally manage to get my new glolux 8W T5's. Something that is harder to find than chicken teeth But the difference just that has made over 2 days is amazing. Now to leave well enough alone, no more fiddling for at least a week.
