Re: Taffs new tank log

So while I make a final decision on the bigger tank I will be ordering a Juwel lido 120 which will fit a little corner of our spare room. I regretted buying the Juwel Lido 120; I found it too tall (better for a marine set up). Glad I sold it. I was going to get the fluval roma 125 but its 80 cm lon...

Re: Stephen's new 425L SeaBray Elite tank log

Counted all 4 Bristlenoses :) Only four, where's the other 250? ...surely they've bred by now or you not telling us something @Stephen :dodgy2: Yes, counted all 4 :) Maybe they're all male or all female. 3 are about the same size and 1 is quite big; had them as small juveniles almost 9 months ago. ...

Re: Stephen's new 425L SeaBray Elite tank log

Friday 16th February 2024 Today is water change and big clean up day. The plan is to temporarily remove all the bogwood and syphon up all the Bristlenose poop. Tidy up all the plants and add new Seachem Flourish Tabs underneath the plants. Try to count the Bristlenose plecs (should be 4 but only see...

Re: Taffs new tank log

I now have a Seabray 5 foot aquarium (bought May last year) and I like it ( see my tank log ). They now produce a 6 foot version. I added my 2 x Eheim Pro4 600 external filters and a Fluval Plant 3.0 Bluetooth LED (59W); I'm happy with my choices. If considering Angel fish then a 4 foot aquarium wou...

Re: Adding tropical fish types

Thanks for all the info. However, I am fast reaching the point of getting rid of my 100l aqurium tank as keeping tropical fish in Dartford appears to be more difficult than I imagined. There are many fish that would suit your Dartford hard water. Cherry Barb (Puntius titteya), Zebra Danio (Danio re...
