yo bro badrang, just out of curiosity, is there any specific reason u have CAE in your tank?

heh, just want to know only. because last time i've ditched my CAE from my guppy tank (not even planted tank) because they keep harassing my guppies. huhuhu~!! and not to mentioned the adult size of it... bleh, almost about 4 inch and its mouth can eat my fries and cherry with just a gulp. LOL~!!...

CAE isn't really suited for a small/medium size tank with community fishes, IMHO.

They're not really algae eaters and will get aggressive as they get older.

@ red dreams. use fans to lower down your tank temperature.. and I'd light up 22 watts as a minimal for a 1feet tank.

@badrang, already posted a reply in MAC. Hope it helps.

hello, may i know the brand of the co2 diffuser that you are using?

my diy co2 does not  have enough pressure to push through the co2 diffuser... in the end i just use normal air stone, which produce relatively HUGE co2 bubbles... keke...  blush.gif

I dont remember the brand.. but it is a mini diffuser that cost about rm18.

My DIY recipe is :
1 Coke Bottle 1.5L
2 Cup of Sugar
1 tea spoon of yeast

It works fine for me about 2 week. then i have to do it again.
