I recently read an article on the web, which I can't find right now, where the author stated that 10-20% weekly water changes are woefully...
Heinrich, PetStop in Rietfontein had some when I was last there, and so does Dorry Pets in Centurion.
@Swagasaurus, did you get my pm? I sent it from within Tapatalk, so I am not sure if I did it correctly? Sent from my SM-P605 using Tapatalk
Update on the snail, it seems like the one polka dot loach realised this morning that the snail is 'edible' and started taking opportunistic bites...
Dibs, will send you pm shortly. Sent from my SM-P605 using Tapatalk
Welcome to the forum, and congrats on those nice looking tanks. If you are interested in planted tanks I would have to fully agree with...
Ive tried very hard to convince my wife that this fish will look great here with us, no luck. Sigh, such an interesting fish. Sent from my...
Well done on this tank. Even though it is not hi-tech in terms of CO2, your planted hob and diy ups setup certainly makes it geeky, if not...

How old should these be before you would be able to positively know that a female will not grow bristles. I have one BN pleco that do not have any...
UPSs are strange beasts, and difficult to predict how long they will last. If I may, I would like to point out a few things that may assist in...
I have been to quite a few nurseries in PTA and no luck finding any... I'll keep looking though, I'm bound to find some at some point.
Apart from the normal fish food and frozen (defrosted) blood worms, I put some broccoli leaves in the tank for the silver dollars. I have a small...
Hi all, I've decided to finally start a thread on my 1.2m tank and the various bits and pieces that keep the fish alive. Enjoy and always feel...
Hi guys, I am not trying to be difficult, just also learning as we go on... Why would a 90-100% water change be bad? If your filter is...
