    Tds/ro tap water

    Hi Sam, He probably meant Kh should be 0 - 5, not Gh. Your tap water sounds excellent, you obviously can't test it for everything as Lindy says - My water company added something that killed a large number of my Neocaradina a few months ago... :( If it were me, I would add dechlorinator and...

    Angels and Cardinals

    I added 6 leopoldi angels and 50 cardinals to a large tank 3 years ago - still swimming happily.

    Dennerle Duo

    I think Piece-of-fish uses HMF with a power head behind the sponge, should be almost silent, fairly cheap to try if the sound if too much.

    Interesting new water mover

    They had these at Interzoo - the amount of water they can shift is amazing.

    Brown Hair Algae\Diatoms?

    Hmm, it's a 3 month old eheim 2213 - I stripped the tank bare (except for the filter media) to get rid of this but back it comes! :( What do you think about no light? I have a 11w PC over it (30l), EI dosing plus high Co2 (drop checker almost yellow). Lighting is 6 hours a day at the moment...

    Brown Hair Algae\Diatoms?

    Hi all, I've got a really annoying algae that starting to annoy me... I thought it was the usual diatoms as the tank is only a few weeks old but it's growing in threads rather than a film. It seems brittle as if rubbed it breaks up unto tiny needle like pieces. Anyway, here's a photo:
