    My local has just got cherries in so going to get some when I get paid. Really dark reds and about £10 for 4 or 5 I think it was.

    My first planted tank, P@H cube

    Finally got the TMC 400 tile on the tank and boy what a difference. The moss has grown like crazy so just given it a haircut and the hair grass has gone from a brown colour back to a nice green. This light is very bright, this is on 40% with an Aquaray controller. Hopefully the Hygrophila...

    30LNanoFilter. Dennerle vs. Eheim vs. Other ?

    Depends on how you set the hardscape. Got a 2213 on my P@H cube and could do with more flow because of the size and shape of the wood in there. Id be more worried about sucking them into the filter

    Any reptile or amphibian keepers?

    I just use a mist bottle and spray it by hand. Can buy systems, polywog do good ones, only thing is you need to buy a seconds timer and they aren't cheap! Plants are usually bromeliads, weeping moss, spagnum moss, ficus, ferns and any air/house plants. Gotta be careful with some though as they...

    External filter for 28l nano?

    What size did you drill them out to? If I put the spray bar in my 30cm cube, acts like a washing machine and throws the substrate about.

    Noisy Eheim 2213

    Filter is just over a week old. It's sat on a thick layer of filter floss. I bought a spare shaft for it, so might try changing that out tomorrow. Also, when its off, turn it back on, it doesn't half make a bloody racket, like the impeller is catching the casing, then it goes. This normal on these?
