Thanks both. I took the end piece off and used just the hose and did that holding it about 1/2 an inch away, did the trick. The plants have grown to the top of the water i'm just going to trim them down i think. Rivercats you have a real nice aquarium there. Love the Angel fish. Thanks again.

The plants mentioned above.

Hi All. I am about to do a water change, just wondering what are the best tips for cleaning an aquarium with sand in it without sucking all the sand out too? Also i have a few plants in (not sure of the name, I will add a photo to the thread) that seem to have roots growing out of the main...

Can someone give me some advice please The rainbow cichlid in my tank has stopped eating and hasn't ate anything for 3 days. Before that at feeding time it was out amongst everything as normal. It won't even eat bloodworm. It just seems to want to sit at the top of the tank just below the top...
