Hey frenchi nice setups! tell me the tank on the left of your pis, what light unit are you using on it? Is a tmc aquaray?

Here in sa we have had power supply problems and we get cut 2/6 hours St a time. I pick up a small ups and connected X2 12 ah 12volt batteries. Runs canister air pump for 10 hours. But what you can do is if you are home and your canister has a prime button pump it x10 every hour. Should be...

Hello hello:)

the new range of ecotech eg. mp40qd "quiet drive" said to be very quiet. drool drool!:wacky:

Are they water resistant. ?:lol:

Any news on this? been looking at these pumps What a brilliant piece of tech

but hell the tmc mounting system sux

I live in South Africa and companies will not honour any thing thats imported. My local Kessil distributor are not going to be getting the tuna sun range, product is not selling here and we will not fix your imports:mad:

My balloon rams are like that he will chase all day long. Having a male and female is not necessarily saying it's a pair. Your rams look like great specimens:thumbup:

Look so cool never seen a ball how awesome :thumbup:

Hey do it mike why the hell not . I'm undecided only because whichever make I choose ill get no after sales support. But in A perfect world I'd go the kessil :lol:

It would be the ultimate for me but at £300 a pop just out of my reach :-(. Tmc mounting system is not as good looking as kessil.

okay so it a month down the line and its looking a little more settled. i have not been able to get my hands on any carpet type plants but im sure it will come

wow nice tank!

Hmmmmmm Kessil droool, I want a160we tuna sun. Or I've done some surfing been looking at the tmc grobeams 1500. The price up about the same. Yes keep us posted

Looks brilliant such a rich colour

Sweet Ian so 55 high? And it's open top?Go on then show me a pic or two

Bump!

Pray tell going a bit more high tech?

Wow looks awesome!

Mike didn't work:(

So I'm in the market for some new gear want to buy some lighting. I'm looking at two different manufacturers tmc aquaria grobeams 1000/1500. And the Kessingland a160we tuna sun. With both systems I'd have to buy 3 units and id buy the controller. what does you guys and gals think? We're is...

Hello Mike welcome:) how about a pic of your tank

here are some oncidiums. thought i could add a shot of my garden from were the oncidiums are

its a phalaenopsis they come in loads of colors. id guess it be white or light pink or any combination of light colors

balloon rams are also great little fish and will brighten any tank

here you can see how much bigger the male rams can with this pair of blue rams

i have similar dendrobium has pea sized flowers sadly not in bloom though

I have had a few pairs of rams, it looks to me that they are both male. If you have two male fish the less dominant will lose its colours when faced with a threat. Females have pink bellies and are half the sizes of males. He will spend most of his time chasing a female or less dominant male. As...

here are some others that are flowering at the moment. the first ones a vanda and next up is a dendrobiun

Hahahahahah so close yet so far Hahahahahah

bone white

I did mine a week ago looked brand new when I was done

South Africa eastern coast it is a sub tropical climate

I have several orchids in my garden not boffin do know it's a cattelya

Your tank is a stunner hope my tank gets somewhere as close to yours one day

I'm no expert Andy D but have to agree pics look doctored to me

Helloooo are you lost haven't been down here for a while. ....hahahaha. wow never heard of magnetic sand, cool must be good for something. ? Just have to find out

I put pool filter sand in my 2m. and I have to turn over the sand once a week, It gets more noticeable as time goes by.

I had this once and now Im very careful. Treat everything for a week . Asasin snails skunk loaches my all time winner zebra loaches only grow 10cm

Sounds great! I have a large sump on my tank and spent months looking for the right design, and have had beautiful water. Would like to see how yours compares to mine. If you are keen ill post a few pics of mine

Can you post more pics of your sump

Cade cb1200-1

What a cool site this one is my spec and made with 12mm :)

This is the look I want (rimless) no Barce on the top. So I'm hopping to be able to build it 10/12mm glass just not sure I'll get the specs I want

one of my current tanks is made with 12mm 2m x 61 w x 75 h getting 15mm is not as easy here:( maybe ill have to go 55 high

holly cow thats a lot of light! i have the finnex but only a strip not a double and i have growth with just that. get your discus sunglasses!

hello jose my thoughts are that 10 or 12mm glass when you put silicon the glass to stick the aquarium together, the surface area were the silicon holds the glass glass is far greater than say with 6 or 8. you can make a rimless tank with 6 or 8mm glass but making one the size i want 120 x 60 x...

Okay I have some questions.i want to build a new setup, dimensions 120L X 60 X 60 rimless! Can I get away with 10mm glass and have no bracing on the top of the tank? Want to have nice clean look with pendant style lighting

hey thanx darrel the leaves are looking tatty form a week in a bucket outside being treated for snails (HATE SNAILS!)

hello all please can you help me id this plant

Photos never done justice, so have you got live stock in your collection?

Hey chandler some pics of the 4ft. Sounds like you have your hand full. Nice one! ;)

it will be round 1000lph when filled the. rating is on an empty canister. just over x 10 filtratiom your tank will hold 96L

fluva 406 would be a good option quiet reliable or a cheaper tetratech 1200

hello across the sea!

At the moment I have two running one 2m X 62 and a 60 X 41. Been plotting to setup 1m X 45. The big tank is great for a stable water setpup and being able to put just about any live stock. The down side, only viable to go low tech approach. The 60 is great minimal ferts top noch substrate small...

thought id share some cool stuff happening in my tank:) im sure more flow will eliminate the algea on the aubias, confirmation from you guys the experts will be great its hard and if i scratch it wit my nail it flakes off. with three pairs of breeding angels my ottos and ansistres not...

hi dan from you picture seem that your filter has been blocked buy floating leaves ect this will reduce flow i would make sure that filter can do its job. you could put the juwel 1500lph pump in you filter. and maybe a pump/internal filter opposite to your juwel filter. this will just help...

Okay iv done some window shopping, seachem flourite ill try and stay away from, don't like the idea of lots of dust. I have six clown loaches in there and they are about 6cm at the moment. The potential for them to get 20cm is great also they are diggers. craib sea is available in 9kg bags. So...

Now correct me I'm wrong dirt can get messy ? And has a lifespan. ? Changing the substrate will be a rather large job and if I only have to do it once all the better. my main concern is fertiliser. The amount will be huge. Other thing it will be £600 if I want to double my light. Resigned...

okay googled it your right not very pretty

what is it?

kirk? not with you?

was thinking of buy x10 bags f foulrite dark = 70L change the internals filter to 600lph??????? not sure putiing in larger amounts of ferts will hurt my pocket!

i put my water in a tank for 24hrs circulate with a pump and air stone and a heater add prime

i know just that my credit card is cowering in the corner:p want to do more but as cost affective as possible

hey thanx colin just a bit board i guess and need a change, been like that for two years:angelic:

this is my 1000l and theses are my measurements 200cm L 62cmW 75cmH hardwear i have two finnex 7000k led fittings over the top, two 300plh cascade internals filters. theer is pressurized co2 coming out of two defuses and an ehiem 300 watt heater in the cupboard the sump is 150cmL 50cm W 55cmH...

so i bought the 1000lph and put in and the fish are not swimming too hard so i guess its all good. go the " x10 " turnover

holly smoakes! maybe the 1000lph will be over kill in my little tank? but i would be closer to 10x turn over

i have a juwel lido 120 which has the bioflow 600lph. i have thought of putting a 1000lph pump in just not sure the live stock will enjoy it to much. but overall i think the juwel filters are easy to look after, and hey never have the problem of leaks :lol:
