    Braking Fosilised Wood

    Anyone broken some of this up? Is just hammer time and see what comes out? I've got a lump from another tank which is just sitting there, I want to use it on another scape so would a smack with a hammer do it?

    Broken Hood Lights

    The lights in my tank hood are broken, it looks like the balast has a dodgy connection but with it being near water I don't want to go messing about with it. What can I do? Can I replace the ones in the hood? Or is it a case of getting a new system?

    T6 Tubes In T8 Hood

    Hi All, This might have been answered but I can't find it. I've read somewhere that I can fit a T6 tube into my T8 fittings using some bushes? My tube is only a 15" one so I am wondering if it is worth changing it for a T6 tube, will I notice any difference? My second option is just to add...
