wow... that is really impressive using a bow front tank in reverse! Pure genius! So impressed can’t wait until we get to see the end result!

That, is what it’s all about! That’s probably the coolest thing I’ve seen in a long time! Can’t wait to see more updates?

Obviously price is a factor, but if you can hold off and save to get your desired one, the Oase ones are very much ideal, mixed reviews but I’ve noticed anyone with issue Oase’s customer service are so quick on helping fix the issues

Looks very nice mate for your first go, as always it’s comes with practise! positive and negative criticism is key, My old man ran an internal filter and he always find cleaning it is so much more hassle than an external filter, say the Oase biomaster with easy maintenance or the Fluval G...

That’s just basically you’re Structural Hardwood Ply, not water proof and is cheaper, same strength but you’re stand shouldn’t be getting wet IMO?

Veryyyy easy to come across! I work at a builders merchant, have tonnes of the stuff! Apart from the price, that’s the only thing would put me off!

Absolutely can 100% agree with you on so many levels.. it’s something you think about because work life takes over you want something you can distract yourself with! and that bonsai scape is beautiful! Well done! Looney

Absolutely incredible should be proud of what you’ve created! Looney.

Glad you got it fixed! Looney.

Has it got a solenoid on? Looney.

Yeah there advertised for the algae side of things, which in that area I think it’s abit grey? but o2 levels it’s a no brainer!

I’m no expert, and don’t claim to be! But sounds like what a pump sounds like? is it you mistaking a filter? An air stone? if it’s 100% the Reg, just be bloody careful!

Yeah I understand what you mean the high levels of o2 are massive! but unsure as there a reasonably new “item” into the industry where not many people have reviewed as much

Do you rate the product at all? Or is it just abit of placebo? Everywhere reads good, other than the price tag as not having a tank at the mo not been able to use/test! but with quite a few coming on the market now it would be nice to see how you’ve come on with using such product! Looney.

The infamous @George Farmer does private installs, who I’ve been in talks with when I need mine sorting. Looney

brilliant thank you mate!

Yeah, I’m after Aquascaper range

They’ve all got eA Freshwaters but not the Aquascaper range‍♂️

Hi guys. I’m currently interested in saving up for a EA Aquascaper tank but would love to go and show the missus to try and convince her! Hahah! so has anyone around the West Midlands know of a shop currently got any on display? Thanks Looney!

I really enjoyed reading this, I can’t wait for all the growth! I’m not a massive fan of Iwagumi but I like how it’s split through the centre making it into more of a river bed/valley, my eye is drawn straight down the centre which I kinda like! very nice mate:)

One of them ain’t it, I’ve done it before and not read and got done over but it’s a learning curve

So funny to read! I gave the invoice for what I’m planning on ordering to the missus, she wasn’t impressed..

Nice little read, can’t wait to keep hearing about it! I’m putting a list together to one day drive down and grab it all‍♂️

I ran akadama in my 240Litre capped with black gravel, the plants absolutely went crazy with it! so I’d like to say his would be doing well also!

Absolutely brilliant, funny but relative post to read! Need to keep up to date so we all get to laugh because we’re all in the same boat

All down to you’re own preference ‍♂️

Can’t wait!

Would love to see what they look like!

Absolute great read, can’t wait to see more made me chuckle aswell

Can’t wait for more updates and pictures to follow, nice journal

Just read this start to finish, very interesting read. @CooKieS very nice job

Welcome to the forum mate.

Maybe to save on cost a powerheads? I’ve got a diffuser but unsure on which glass one I like.. lights are going to be the Twinstar 900E or S.. going to ring and speak about them to save at Aquarium Gardens if the price difference because it is a price difference worth doing then by all means...

Love the look oh the Biomaster!

I’d love to but unfortunately don’t know which shop I’d go to for it all!

Oh mate, payday can’t come soon enough!! Hahaha and yes that’s a brilliant idea! Get some boxes from work! @alto Aquascaper tanks are set price so not a discount happening! But the only other place that I could go to a shop in person for is Maidenhead for the filter.. lights and substrate they...

@alto just turns into more price with how many bags! I’ll be getting the 900 aquascaper might run a sand frontage or abit of sand to break the colour as a path somewhere but other than that all soil! thought there would be a company out there that doesn’t charge stupid money! Guess not

I’m wanting a substrate that is not needed to be capped or anything, like the Tropica Aquarium soil, it sits at a nice price of about £40..

It’s nice to see you’re getting back into something you enjoy mate! I failed my first attempt and just kept fish and anubias! Like you I’ve had a lot of things happen! Two children even though ones 3 weeks old! Hahah but my other boy whose 16months absolutely loved sleeping in front of the...

Just been and put some in my basket on there! & yes I’ve got a drop checker!;) & okay I’ll bare that in mind if I ever have issues! once figure out a dimmer, just seen @Andrew Butler had some for sale a Smart LED controller if it works with dimmer then I’ll pick one up off him and then that’s it...

I’ve got all the Co2 Art kit already just need to find a fire extinguisher! And what would you recommend for bubbles a minute? Think I’ll be going with the 900, lights wise I love the look of the twinstars but haven’t seen that you can dim these? What would the purpose of dimming be anyways...

Trying to find this stuff is more difficult that it seems.. its going to cost £45+ for only 9L..

Brilliant I really appreciate it! Won’t know how much I want tho! There’s a equation to work out how much you need but what if you want it deeper one side and built up another

I’ve read that Tropica Aquatium Soil is more of an additive? “The Tropica soil is a concentrate, and is used under gravel” so that makes me question with soil of tropica do people use! Hahah

Brilliant cheers mate

I’m in the same situation, Tapatalk doesn’t work!

Evening guys & girls! I’m currently planning on setting up a 900 Evolution Aqua Aquascaper! Going to be writing a journal for the whole thing from a noobs point of view! Main discussion atm is on the journal threads but want to individually ask in dedicated threads! New substrate! I’ve never...

Where did you order the lights and kit from if you don’t mind mate?

I wish I could just get you to order it all for me!! Hahah

Looked and it seems very easy now! Just need to find substrate and lights! Kessils and Twinstars are amazing but god damn expensive!! Everything is sorted just those two now! Oh the joys! Hahah

@AverageWhiteBloke i really appreciate you’re time discussing the ferts further! reading what you are saying makes a lot more sense! It’s like buying anything it’s a branded name so will cost alotttt more! I’m really liking the twinstar, I think they look a lot more professional sat on top as...

I’m going to have a scroll through I think and look to see if I can find anything through the forum about all in one ferts! I’m such a noob

I meant as in the poster boy for the aquascaper range? Surely it’s good stuff other he wouldn’t have his name next to it? Not really read up on much fertilisers!!

I’ve read a lot about brought substrates changing PH levels? Just want an all round substrate that won’t mess with levels and has the best nutrients! Which maybe worth going the akadama route so I know it’s a good substrate and I know the ferts going in? Maybe start with George’s own brand and...

I really think I’m going to go with akadama to absorb the nutrients?

brilliant cheers mate

Afternoon all! (pre-set up discussion, unsure on where thread should be) So I’m going to be planning on starting my first aquascape! I have all the ideas set up but could do with your guys help with suggestions and ideas to make it better! Especially with prices! So here we go! Tank&Cabinet...

Have you got a link to that thread mate? Thank you!

Is that just tank or cabinet aswell?

Mate, I’m in the same boat.. fed up of my Roma240 & after a rimless! EA Aquascaper looks beaut as it’s just a bare tank where as TMC mainly run sumps can’t find anything second hand anywhere anyways!

Morning guys! How many of yous have a Rimless Fish tank? Or have had them? how did you find it? And what makes about are there? Really looking st one to get for a nice aquascape! Ranging from 100L - 200L if anybody know of any brands at all please? Preferably would like a second hand one but...

They’re LED atm but Didn’t really know what was best As in company wise or anything? Can only really find Arcadia doing T8 LEDs that look half decent?

MY QUESTION IS: Is Arcadia T8 LEDs the way forward as I’m unsure on what I’m looking for? Evening all! really need some help and guidance? Or passed experiences!! When i originally brought my Fluval Roma 240LITRE it came already with T8 LEDs! Which I find produce the amount I need? I...

Do you just pop the lid off and pour it in or force it in with a "bag" Thanks josh. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good point, it's not an easy thing to find if one brand is better than another? They all do the same job but you don't want to buy one and co2 leaks etc etc, But with speaking to afew people with recommendations especially here in the U.K, Co2 Art was one that was mentioned ALOT, emailed them...

Hmm that's very useful I'll definitely go with dowel and super glue with moss, does it work with most plants? And could you recommend any brands please? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Totally didn't think about dowel, heard glue was good because you can use it for moss aswell apparently that's what will be on the bog wood:) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So, I've got a little snail that some how hot in with bogwood in my cold water tank, doesn't bother me! If anything my niece&Nephew love him .. but! A lot of people I've spoken to have mixed opinions? What's everyone else's opinion? *Sorry if I'm wrong section* Sent from my iPhone using...

may take a while!! Hahaha Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That looks incredible!! I'd quite like something like that because the design I'm going to be aiming for, I want to modify and add a bridge with either driftwood or bog wood! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Even with or without changing it that picture looks nice, I'm going to try to create something like that just without wood and use I think dragon stone, and use maybe bog wood and create a bridge across the sand or fine white gravel? getting 200Litre tank this Saturday! Big step from a...

Bit expensive, maybe my only choice but I've seen a company selling Regulators called Barns? Did make a post about it asking if anyone had used them? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
