Hi all,
I think I’m in the right place now!
Hard scaping done, just waiting for plants from Aquarium Gardens, will be delivered today so I’ll be planting tonight, yeehaa!
It’s crazy but after all these years Nick72 I am very excited about planting as I’ve only ever pushed plants into gravel and slowly watched as they slowly decomposed In front of my eyes!😂
30 years on, things have changed a bit including me!

Hi guys!
Update on my tank, it’s more of a technical issue but I can’t stop my Biomaster 600 from humming!
It’s driving me mad, surely this can’t be right
I have taken it apart twice, primed it before turning on, fitted the little rubber feet on the bottom to stop vibration but it’s still humming to a man annoying level. As it’s in our lounge it’s very annoying.
Anyone had this problem?
Hi guys,
Two weeks in now, pretty pleased with progress, plants are thriving although I have replaced a couple of cryps that died back.
I have 8 Bentosi Tetras and 12 cardinals added yesterday, they seem happy enough.
I have 3 Ottos and 8 Amano shrimp for a clean up crew and they are doing a great job.
I change 50% of the water on a Weds with half RO water and half tap mixed with warm to keep the temp consistent.(we have very hard water here).
Can you please suggest a centre piece fish for my aquarium, would love some help!
For show fish, were you thinking something bigger or just something that stands out? A bigger group of cardinals would look nice and harmonious with the bentosi but a pair of dwarf cichlids could work if the tank is big enough (can't see dimensions). A couple to consider are apistogramma borelli (many more species available but this one works in harder water), nannacara anomala (small and peaceful) or laetacara dorsigera.
Thank you guys for the suggestions.
6 weeks in and the tank is cycled nicely now.
Tank is 95 cm 200 ltrs.
Plants are showing signs of a deficiency.
I have been dosing TNC 15 ml daily as I do. Water change every week.
I’m thinking I need to add iron maybe?
It’s only on some leaves, my phosphate levels are ok as I have checked so it’s not that!
Any idea guys?
