    Oak Leaves

    Have found a lovely turkey oak dropping leaves which have the same waxy polished feel as the Indian almonds. Are you thinking this is the same Mediterranean Oak?

    Why is night time aeration important?

    O2 produced during the day (pearling) and consumed during the night, so yes, it's for the livestock as the co2 could theoretically could rise above the controlled injection rate. Watch for fish gasping at the surface after lights out.

    Why is night time aeration important?

    Oak Leaves

    I've tried a combination of leaves and horse chestnut seems to go down the best with the shrimps. Stripped to a skeleton within days. Why do we want leaves that take along time to breakdown?

    Cut the top off a small plastic bottle and reverse it into the body creating a small trap. Pop the half eaten shrimp in there and leave it in the tank. And cross your fingers.

    Self build acryllic tank

    Laser cutting acrylic is perfect. It even flame polishes the edge for you. The only problem is on very thick pieces and the angle created by the focusing of the laser beam. I've already made a smaller version as a prototype. I'm yet to water test it! I Might try tomorrow and take some pics. I...

    Self build acryllic tank

    We've just had a rather large laser cutter installed at work and I'm thinking of building a 2ft cube to half fill with water and grow emerged in the other half. In my smaller tank with a lid I was getting 95% humidity. I'll install a door in the upper half. Has anybody any experience or...
