Re: 142L Scape photo update Well tank has been running for a few days and so far so good. Lights are on a 8hrs (2pm - 10pm). With co2 on a hour before lights come on and also before they go off. Sorry for bad photo. Fully planted by eleventhandy, on Flickr Co2 defuser looks good. I have it...

Ouch, not good. Is it coming from the sodastream adapter? I read that you need to put some ptfe tape on it or something before attaching it, unless your got there fitting service. I made that mistake the first time. Busted the regulator getting the standard connection off so ended up...

Yeah, it's turned off now, timer. Yeah it's adjusted not sure what the ppm is, as one of the guides I've been reeding suggests 30ppm if using nutrition+ fertilisers which I got free with the plants.. I have a seneye in the tank as well which is reporting ph of 7.3 and on the way down, will...

Got soadstream co2 all setup ok though I don't know how much O2 should be released in the tank, drop checker is light green which suggests is slightly high. Don't know how long tank will last, I did a leek test showed no leaks but I'm convinced that the tubing is going to pop off the glass...

Hi, I'm just about to setup an new 150 liter planted tank and have been thinking about my existing fish in my old tank which is eventually going. I'm now thinking of getting another tank: a 16 Liter Nano for the bedroom and putting my existing fish in there, leaving the new tank for...

Yeah I've had a look at the APS BLACK T5 FISH TANK LIGHTS TWO TUBES which is £74.99 with either marine or tropical tubes. Its defiantly an option

Lol i have a seneye for that :-)

Wow, I really like it. and its not that overly expensive. Thinking if it could get a blue led strip in there as well for night time that would be amazing. I currently have a cheap blue led strip super glued in my current tank, with two timers
