not too much fish keeping going on at the moment, so just lurking mostly but who could resist a chemistry question? ;)

Cheers, yeah good tip RE the parva, I didnt want to handle / break them apart to much as previously I havent had the best success with the plant, one...

Tank looks good, it is nice to see a little more driftwood. Personally not a fan of light coloured substrates, but this is just me usually lol. I...

Good to see you still around oh master regani :)

Flickr recently got bought out so there may have been some changes @Rebel.

that should probably read 1. Tetramethyl Para Amino Triphenyl Carbinol and 2. Methyl Thionine Chloride the names are not really the proper...

Thats a fair call Doyle, makes sense. Might look for some dwarf corries and a couple of CPD's (Love the look of CPD's)!! Thanks for the info

Hmm sorry dude. Will fix.

Dont forget rasbora maculata. Brilliant personalities and they dont hide. 1 footer could handle 30 easily.

Its fine for small micro fish i.e. less than 20mm but I wouldnt put rummynose tetra's in one, they need a long tank like 4ft so they can get out and...

Apparently we need to sign into flickr to see your pics. For those without an account such as myself cant see them sorry.

Hey mate, my shrimp tank is also a 1ft cube (slightly bigger). Didnt think it was anywhere near big enough to house fish also... how do yours go?...

hey mate, may look crappy with plants not doing so well, but give it time. My 4fter looked terrible for ages, my thread will show that much too....

Interesting, I was there a few weeks ago and they did have a few small gobys in a tank, marked sold/hold. Was probably them! Tank wont be set up for...

I got a tip off couple of weeks ago aquatix had them in but didn't make it down to see

Gave this tank a major over-hall, cleaned everything out, added new sand and removed 50% of the plants, anything that may require regular trimming is...

Added 6 ember tetras to this tank today, moved them over from my 60p (my nephew took about 10 for his tank), they bring some life to the tank as the...

Probably the last shot of this tank, all over grown, still looks kind of cool but I am over needing to trim every few weeks, as this tank is in a...

Oh good stuff! Thanks for the tips Graeme, I need to get onto live blackworms, I have started culturing micro worms, good for my tiny micro fish but...

PM sent, please check inbox

From what i can find on google (searching parts of the name...), number 1 appears to be malachite green maybe? That scientific name appears to bring...

I kept and bred these guys for a while You wont need any salt They are tough as anything and eat anything as well Love live black worms

either I have been drinking too much or some of those fish look googly eyes. only kidding, plastic bag distortion :) makes me want to hop in...

Well have just returned from my adventure up North to Yamba and can confirm that the Rhad collecting was very successful. I collected a total 20...

cant find it on google but the other links with most of those words related to an organophosphate but no common names, only chemicals so it would...

My substrate is sand (kinda coarse, not the very fine white one) mixed with sprinkling of Aquasoil. Still wore the barbels of my sterbai to stubs....

What would you suggest for flow? Some thing like an internal powerhead or wavemaker? What LPH would be needed for a tank this size? I did a trim and...

Cheers, looking forward to setting it up, current scape in this tank grows way to fast sick of trimming, won’t be a biotope, competitions are not for...
