Couldn't find anywhere that did the jbl, but did find cheap(ish) juwel tubes - got 2x daylite and 1x colour. Delivery today so we shall see! :)

Does anyone know where I can get this from - I cant seem to find anywhere in the UK that has it :(

Thanks, No opportunity to check the different lights out in person - just gotta go for it! So thinking a combination of the Juwel colour lite and Juwel day lite.

Yeah, I think the grolux has a "warm" light appearace. Thinking more the "whiter" light, so either the light or flora. Initial thoughts are to stock with a large shoal of smal tetra - posssibly green neon rasboras - but either way, lots of small fish! and loads of shrimp. Plants will be...

I have acquired a 240ltr Juwel tank which is to be a low tech, no co2 set up. The existing t8's I assume are pretty old and am looking to replace. I've looked at lamp specs.co.uk, from which I've bought t5's from, but not sure which t8's to get - oceanic light, flora or grolux - can any advise...

I'm looking for a new glass in tank diffuser. Nothing much wrong with my current one, other than the bubbles appear a little large now it's been going a while. Use of co2 isn't really an issue as I have a 6kg cylinder which lasts over a year & costs pennys to refill, so I've no concern...

That's the one! Thank you

Slightly random question, but I'm trying to find the name of a particular fish which I can't remember. About 1 inch long. Looks a bit like a small cichlid. Red vertical stripes Blue "shine" all over Males more colourful Blue trim to pectoral fin "hovers" in amongst plants at low level, have...

Thank you for your kind comments! A couple of detail shots.

I am considering installing an inline heater, have read around & have just a few questions: Which one would you recommend? Will it increase (filter) noise? Will it reduce flow? Filter is an aquamanta efx400 (1400lph) - a decent filter, but probably not the quiestest - not an issue due to the...

Fleabay?.... http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_sacat ... +regulator From Hong Kong though.

Which I now have! And I'm very happy with it.

It will turn into a plantlet if left. If you don't want that, just pull it off - it will release easily.
