Hope you don’t mind me asking but had you found somewhere that has them in stock? I kept some a few years ago and would love to get some again to try and breed.
+1 for crypts and java fern, I had them in my 30l betta tank with hairgrass (soil capped with sand though). Zozo's right about the akadama, even though its inert it has a high CEC so absorbs nutrients from the water column. I also used red root floater and amazon frogbit to give the little guy...
£300 can get you a pretty decent gaming PC. Intel i3 4130 , Radeon 7850, 8gb ram, optical drive, semi modular psu and a h81 mobo, that's what I'm doing :) I still use my ps3 but having to pay for online has really put me off.
I have been looking around a few of those forums and it shocked me how they rate lighting, everything is about lumens. They say HPS and MH bulbs are better than fluorescent and their reasoning is that they throw out more lumens, but surely par is a better measurement than lumens?
If your using two lower wattage heaters and one sticks on the water will not heat up half as fast, giving you more time to discover the problem. I know this better than anyone, I used to use two 75w heaters in my 240l tank and one day one stuck on, the water only managed to get to 26c, which was...
Have you tried Eheim jager heaters ? They are very reliable and you can calibrate them. O thing to consider is the accuracy of the thermometer you are using, it helps to always have a couple of good ones on hand and check the temperature at different areas in the tank. Before I used to think my...
Hairgrass is the easiest plant int he world to grow emersed, just don't forget to water it or it will die off quite fast, I'll post a couple of pictures up later of this years hairgrass and hydrocotyle later.
If none of the above work i'd pour acetone in the pipe, I think it destroys plastic, this will make it so easy to get out (if the bristles are plastic). Chemistry people :)
Ok, I was wrong as I now remember it is 12x3w LED's. They are 3.3v each so 3.3vx12= 39.6v. The driver is constant current (650mA+-5%) 25-42v DC. At 100% brightness they should draw roughly 25.35w.
@Ichthyologist I have tried the dimmer you sent me but it only flashes and stays on, even if I only...
Can I also say I don't think its a good idea to have parts of the forum which are subscription only, but maybe a small perk like direct image uploads and a small emblem next to the names of subscribers would be nice.
As a student I have no money but £12 a year is nothing, especially for all the resources and experience the forum has to offer. Think about it, without this forum how many people would have brought 20g Fluval CO2 kits instead of a good regulator and fire extinguisher or Tetra Plantamin instead...
