    Fixing a leaking seal

    Hi everyone, I have a bit of a problem that I need help with. A few days ago, literally a few hours before going to France on a school trip, my CO2 went off. After checking I realised that the bottle, which should have lasted for months, was empty after only two weeks. I had no choice but to...

    Which shoaling fish?

    Hi everyone, this is my first post here - I've been inspired by my recent visit to The Green Machine and started again with my planted tank, I have replanted my 220L 65cm cube as a jungle tank. That now brings loads of questions the first of which are: I plan to keep 6 Corydora sterbaii, some...
