Cheers guys.

Anybody? I take it that was a stupid question?

I used to have the tank covered but i have now got a new light which sits on top of the tank so no need for hood any more. Was just wondering if it is ok to just keep topping up the water as it seems to evaporate pretty quickly. Would the water going low to the point where the flow from the...

Re: Saintly's 120cm latest scape Savvanah Dreaming.......yeah buddy!! Cant wait.........keep throwing them pics up!

Thanks for the link Ld, do you have any experience with these? Are they better than the juwel lighting on the 180? and can i grow HC with these as i think my lights just now aint gonna cut it!! Thanks for the help, not sure if i should order from these guys or not??

Hi guys i have a rio 180, and am thinking of upgrading the lighting on this tank. I have the t5 units on this with reflectors, does anyone know how much these lights produce per tank volume and if it is sufficient enough to grow HC or do i upgrade? I want to possibly add a light that hangs from...

CORYS dont mix with sand and substrate, trust me i know and i spent two days trying to net them out , no more corys no more mess, i tweezered out all the aquasoil from sand back to where it should be, they also uproot a hell of a lot of plants. Nice job on the tank, looks great.

Ok thanks i will also do the same, now with regards to trimming how harsh should i be, hack it right back or just half the height??

So did you make any changes to flow to see this change from growing bushier to see it spreading along the substrate? I have recently noticed that some have started to spread, maybe just need to give it a little longer. Got to say this is what mines also looks like, spread spread!!! Thanks for...

Thanks, yes it does seem very delicate, mine melted straight after a water change also, or then maybe its because i have more flow where the crypts are, before the change it was a dead flow spot in the tank, will these adapt to the situation? Thanks.

I have tried everything, upped flow , increased co2, double dosing EI, but still no joy, why wont it carpet, it gets bushier and maybe little taller, looks very fail and not rooted. Any help before i decide to rip it all out and plant glosso?? I have also learned that even though the corys are...
