Just noticed this; http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dennerle-Crystal-Quartz-Gravel-Brown/dp/B001N03Q20#productDetails Click the white option, 10kg bags are £7.35 each - quite a saving. Just ordered 20kg for £14.70 delivered!

So, took a good fews years off planted tanks. Went salty for a couple of years and then stopped keeping tanks for a bit. Trying to resist going high tech again as my last planted tank was a salad factory! So here's the new tank; Scape is a big old chunk of bogwood from my old setup and some...

So, I'm starting out again after a small interlude of no tanks. I've just picked up an 80cm Aqua Nano 130L and it came with a nondescript LED fixture. The diodes have the name Niko on them... so I did some googling. There are 56 diodes in a single strip down the middle of the fixture which...

My echinodorus harbii is growing really large leaves very close to the floor instead of growing up. It's a pain in the butt because I put it in the back of the tank and in the middle to be a background plant. I've got high light, high ferts and high CO2. I guess this is why it is growing so low...

I've just upgraded my Romo 90 to T5 lights and went out and bought a pair of Juwel tubes; Colour and Nature. These are supposed to have a colour temp of 6800 and 4100 respectively. I though this mix would look quite natural but it has a very yellowy cast to it. Juwel also do a Day bulb at 9000...

I'm running a high tech 90 litre (Fluval Roma). Lighting is 2 x T5 @ 24 watts (I upgraded the stock T8 system). CO2 is pressurized and my drop checker is green @ lights on and limey green by gas off at the end of the day. I don't manage to get to the tank more than about 2 times a week, so I am...

I have been having great fun with Riccia Fluitans in my tank but I'd like to get hold of the dwarf variety. Does anyone know where I can get some here in the UK or does anyone have a small amount they could send me?

I've got a 24G (90 litre) Nano Cube (its about 15" deep and 18" square) with 2 36W T5 Compacts in the hood. I run proper CO2 at 30ppm (at least) during the photoperiod. I dose 4ml TPN+ daily and do 50% WCs every week. The filter is rated at 800lph (so just under x10) I have; Amazon swords...

I've been reading the tutorial in the guides section on setting up 'higher tech' tanks. It says that you need to have lower stocking than a standard tank. I was just wondering why and what is the result of a heavily stocked high tech?

In an effort to avoid doing my PGCE assignments I went ahead on a whim and built this; I'm just thinking about lighting and have a couple of questions. The tank is 38cm x 30 x 25. I'm planning low tech dense planting (Iwagumi style). Questions are; What lighting do I need for reasonable...

I'm sorry to post another one of these but I'm desparately trying to find somewhere to get 2kg fire extinguishers or 2kg & 500g tapped canisters refilled in the Cornwall area. I can pick them up full for about £20 but I don't like the waste of having to dispose of empty canisters every few...
