Hi Stripes, Did you use marine silicon? I made a mistake a long time ago and used normal silicon. It took me hours to scape off...
I like the filter sand, but would prefer if it was a darker colour. The poop shows up too easily in the white sand. I've heard of someone who...
Does inert silica pool filter sand come in different colours or are they all that off-white/grey colour?
Welcome and enjoy. TASA has helped me a lot...I haven't lost any stock in ages :bigsmile:
Animal World at the Hillfox Power centre stocks Seachem. I bought a bottle of Seachem Flourish and Excel for about R95 a bottle. It was R89...
Do you know which fish have airbubbles in their poop? My plecos use to have this (it use to float all over the place), and I found out that it...
Do the almond leaves specifically have to be the Indian type? Or can any almond leaf do? I know someone who has an almond tree in his backyard,...
Okay, so I managed to get rid of my algae problem, hopefully I can keep it that way. I bought some Flourish Excel, and that seemed to do the...
Hi Carl, welcome. We're all desperate looking for help, but this is a good place to get it.
That's such a cool natural looking environment
Okay, I'll try not to fiddle...but its gonna be really hard not to :bigsmile:
Henk, thanks for trying to help me out. When I clean the filter contents, I do use the tank water (in a bucket of course) and not clean water....
Ummm do you think I have too little Co2? Since light, nutrients and Co2 have to be balanced, would insufficient Co2 cause algae? I have quite a...
Thanks, I'll do the daily water changes and see what happens. I've had the tank for almost a year now (inherited), but in November last year had...
Henk, I've sort of tried, and am still trying. I was hoping that the cleanup crew would be a quick fix before the algae gets out of hand...almost...
Thanks Singularity. Some nice alternatives to a sump algae screen. I'll try it out if the ottos don't help. Well, I've had my ottos for almost...
Well, I've just bought 3 ottos. Will see how it goes. Yeah I saw the thread about the algae screen, but I don't use a sump, so it's not an option.
Thanks Scaly, I deliberately opened this thread to specifically discuss otos, and not the SAE. Anyway, I'm gonna go buy a few otos now now, and...
I've heard of that too, but I think that refers more to the CAEs.
I've been looking for SAEs for quite awhile now (to eat the hairy algae that's growing on everything) and cannot find any. LFS's generally only...
