Ahhhhhhhhhhhh.......... some one who knows about Sri Lanka. Well it's very cold and I think it's going down below 18c 'cos my tank is out side of the house and the fish is barbs (Tigers, Green, Albino).

My tank is a 29 gallon tank and I need to buy a heater for that but I don't know what is the best wattage and the length of the heater also want to what would be the type with a regulator or without a regulator. Please help me out my fish actually dieing due to the coldness of the water.

Guys I think there treatment is working for Ich issue what I'm using is methylene blue and salt. When I checked today the whit spots have reduced and fish looks ok. I did a partial 50% water change today and did the same thing and have to continue this till I get rid of the Ich. I'll keep you...

OK here are some images of my tank compared to your tanks it a poor one but I love it and also the dimensions of the tank is W12" x H15.5" x L36" (inches) full glass and silicon. So what do you think is this a good setup or is it needs to be changed all ideas are welcome to improve my setup.

Thank you every one

I also did some search to help you but it seems like the filter is not enough for your new tank try a bigger one what I normally do is buy a filter thats one step ahead of the recommended one so if upgrade some thing it want give much trouble.

yes, I'll be very careful while doing the partial water change.
