I've moved house, and while I was waiting for my new place to come through my cousin kindly gave me a place in her house for them to live. Sadly she's not a fish person so what she said were "1 or 2 dead" turned out to be 0 alive and guppie soup.
Thankfully most the celestial daneo's in my 130L tank survived.
This weekend I'm moving the tanks into my new flat. and I'm doing things a bit diffrently. Last time i drained out most of the water and moved the tanks fully planted with the fish in them. Carrying the tanks up to her flat almost killed me.
This time I'm going tear down the large aquarium, bag the fish and plants and siphon off 2x25L barrels of tank water to take with me. The substrate is sand, and i think thats going to go on the garden.
I have a 110L pvc crate for the fish to live in as a temporary aquarium while I cycle the new setup.
I have bought the following for the new scape and i was wondering what people reccon. I have some miracle grow osomocote type stuff, I was wondering if it was a good or bad idea.
The substrate is 2 bags of akaedama bonsai soil, I've got a 700g of florapol, a tub of bacter ae and some left over crypt tabs.
The lighting is 2x18w, a 1kL/h filter and i will probably hook up a FE with a JBL solenoid regulator.
What do people think?
