Was it shrimp lands that you purchased from?

No, they are all potted unfortunately

Morning. I've recently (yesterday) set up a new tank buying a load of gear from TGMs closing sale. Part of the order was a package of hardscape and a few plants. I was going to write the plants off however as my chihiros 45 aseries still hasn't arrived. However.... TGM generously sent me 10...

Glad the filters up and running :) the rated flow is 1250 if i remember rightly on the eheim thats a good 10x turnover and a top notch filter, i doubt you even need the internal running on it at all. My tank was 240l that it was on but low tech and it still had a decent flow. I used to have a...

ah ok, think you need to have 20 posts prior to viewing the for sale forum, get spamming!

Hi Martin It appears we live in the same town, I am in the unfortunate position of having to sell off all my gear including CO2 regulator etc: http://www.ukaps.org/forum/threads/ada-cube-garden-90p-arcadia-ot2-etc.24698/ If you want any of that gear i can knock a few quid off for collection...

I'm in Workington have family in Kendal, can't think of an excuse to drag the mrs to be to Manchester, maybe drop her at the Trafford centre?

I really wasn't putting a lot of pressure on it in my opinion, the "nubs" for the suction cups seemed overly large on a couple of the pipes, this was literally the last pipe, so i was massively pissed off, i must admit its kind of put me off them particularly with the cleaning of them etc, but i...

Re: Fluval Studio 900... Inline C02. ady any chance of a full room shot just to see how it sits in the living room now, its looking cracking, cheers

Well, the tank and aquasoil arrived today, it came early so the day started well, tank got set up on cabinet..... My Lily Pipes arrived..... there was 2 sets to start with half way putting the suction cups on the second pair the bloody thing smashed, 20mins later i was in a+e with a cut...

never thought of that, ah well, went for an eheim 2075 in the end, i already have a 2071 and its fantastic

:D Tank ordered, should be here on wednesday :D

I really wanna run 17mm lily pipes so unless i can work out how to get them to fit i think i'll just bite the bullet and get an eheim 2075 instead, the aps filters just look like a cracking deal.
