    +1 on that. Pretty sure Hagan nutrafin does a SW master test lit kit.

    Tank Crash!!

    Im devastated for you! Think i'll stick to the tried and tested makes. I like Tetra Aqua Safe, but also like Nitrafin Aquaplus. Interpet makes a very decent conditioner that you add slightly less as compared woth Tetras. I believe Waterlife does one called Haloex(?). I used it years ago...

    Coneting fluval 405 and 406 together??

    Never heard of connecting filters, only heard of running 2 at the same time, either for extra filtration or to keep the tank healthy as the new filter gets populated with bb.

    Greetings from the California Desert!

    I've always been ok with angels. I think the soft, acidic water helps. They are my favourite fish withSeverums coming a close second. Ive thought of having a puffer myself. Id set it in a species tank, its one for the future. I love the way they swim and they are more than just a little bit...

    Is my Betta sick/burned?

    What are your water parameters? Could it be that your tamk water is of a different ph to the stores? If it was too big a difference maybe he's in shock. Did uou adf any of your tamk water to the bag ? To acclimatise? Also did you check your ammonia, nitrate and nitrite levels before buying...

    Filter Pipe Gunk

    I get this sometimes too. Not much of it and doesnt bother the fish. Would get sucked up quickly anyway. You could put a small fine mesh fish net under the out flow to catch it.

    Angelfish pairs.

    I think amgels reach sexual maturity at about one year old.

    Greetings from the California Desert!

    Certainly sounds like you have it all taken care of. I think most tanks get an algal bloom at some point though. My angels have been displaying courting behaviour too. So who knows I may have 'angelets' soon :)

    I Have Some Bad News...

    I agree with Jlk about the sand. It is so much easier to clean than gravel. Also sand has a greater surface area for bb to stick to. If you are not using live plants, you could use just under an inch of sand coverage. This would also help to stop the sand going stagnent. Although it only...

    Cool, sounds really interesting, hot .... but interesting. How do your goldies do in the heat? In fact how do people keep there goldies cool in the US? Are chillers used most of the time?

    clown loaches with ich - help please!

    I may be wrong and I camt find the bottle to look, but i think API does an ich cure that you can use with scaleless fish. Maybe at half dose though, any one else have any suggetions? :/

    Filling the tank with warm water and disolving a good amount of aquarium salt, then soaking the filter and parts in it should steralize sufficiently. Then giving the tank a good wipe round inside with the solution. Just a thought.
