Hi all, I have been using the JBL CO2 kits with 500g refillable canisters on my tank (journal in my sig.) I have been going through canisters pretty quick, especially the last couple of weeks. I investigated and can hear a clear hissing noise coming from my UP inline Atomizer. I've changed...

Hi all, Welcome to my journal for my new high-tech planted tank. I've recently replaced my entire set-up with a tank, cabinet and lighting arm from Natural Aquario, who are based in Portugal. I actually ordered the tank way back in June but due to what feels like an endless list of issues I've...

Hi all, Set up my new Natural Aquario set up yesterday (Journal begins soon), all is done apart from the CO2. My question is really two: 1. I have the reg that has a screw to adjust the working pressure on a 500g cylinder. The needle showing working pressure has been sat at just under 2 bar...

Hi guys, I've fairly recently got my hands on a pair of TMC GroBeam 1000nd tiles. I bought them new and have unfortunately had a few problems. One of the first tiles had a faulty power adapter, the online retailer I purchased from suggested returning the whole unit for replacement, so I did...

Hi Guys, I was wondering if anyone here uses, or knows if you can use, an atomizer like a UP with a JLB CO2 kit. The kit I have is the JLB M602, and I'm not sure if the pressure is high enough to use one of the UP inline atomizers. The instructions say they can put out up to 6bar, but I doubt...

Hi guys, I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this one, but want to double check and hear peoples opinions on the matter... So I've got a hydor external heater (300W / 16-22mm) and I'm planning to use a UP Atomizer too. Is it okay to run both bits off the same hose (return hose, filter to...

Hi all, I'm looking for an alternative to an internal heater for my upcoming set-up. I was just wondering what the general view on inline heaters is, I've never used one before and wondered how much they affect the flow rate as I've heard it can almost half it in some cases. If this is...

Hi guys, Hopefully ordering my new tank this week/next week. I have been looking at the Natural Aquario (aka NA, based in portugal) tanks and stands, they look really impressive and the prices are great. I was wondering if many members had bought their tanks and/or cabinets. I have seen 1...

Hi guys, Was hoping for a few pointers. I was taking a few pics of my P.Furcatus' (forktail rainbows) and as usual, the settings seemed to be okay and getting good in focus pictures on the camera display, but when I uploaded them to my comp I realised that in most only part of the fish was in...

Hi guys, Still in the planning stages of my new set-up (tank still not bought yet) and I am having real difficulties in choosing a lighting set-up. :crazy: I'm massively keen on the TMC GroBeam's, I love the way they look and the flexibilty of being able to adjust the power output. I would...

Hello there, I'm new to this forum but not completely new to the planted tank. I have been looking one the forums and everyone's tanks look soooo good. I'll hopefully be posting about a new project soon. Here is a pic of my first attempt at a planted tank from a year or so ago. Cheers Dan
