just go to any lfs and ask for the ordinary lighting for plant...they should have.... or if u want to pay lesser than just buy the phillip tube for house with green tip but make sure it's daylight

so, no tanning and no DE ?

Agree on that! How many tube enuf? 3 - 4 ??? But later sure will create green algea on the glass.

Added on July 2, 2010, 12:11 pmTanning is just another reason for DE. Glass reflection, food type and tank height also contribute to DE problem.

saif bro,

when is the best time to do tanning on your aro?

If tanning, how long do i need to switch on the light ?

are lighting for plant is the white light?

these lighting for plants are likely to cause de?

24/7 maybe. hahahaha..



Yeap. Only if you do side tanning.

ok...i will make mini uv protection sun-goggles for my aro and put under intensive tanning

Cool!!!! Make 1 for me also ok.

yes yes.. ghost shrimp it is... but too fast ady tak sempat take picture.. haha
just the hb sambil eat, sambil got some blood come out from its gill there.
But now no more blood le, den hb oso eating as normal.. now oni feed worm, don dare to try any more tricks...

hmnn i feed ghost shrimps every once in a while

what size is your aro again ar?

one thing you need to take note of when feeding ghost shrimps ...actually any type of prawn or shrimp for the matter....

is that they all got this razor horn thingy sticking outta their head...

when i feed the ghost shrimps i will use my nail to break off as much of the horn as possible...without breaking or squashing their eyes as well =.="

Once i break then i will hold them by the long feelers and let the aro chomp em down lol....that way the aro doesnt go zig zagging madly around trying to get the shrimp ....and therefore less accidents happen that way too

I guess your HB still very young maybe 5 inch right? they are still fragile so i think the shrimp cause it..... btw your shine is at wat level now and how many inches?

is around 5-6 inch lo.. hmm, i didn break its horn =.=" and i just put all of them inside.. haha...

yea u're rite.. around 5-6 inch... erm, i don't reli know how to see the shine level le.. u mind teach me?

lol..no wonder my chilli red stays at one corner la today, u all praise it till it got shy edi la..heheh..
Thanks for the comment!!
Got cert..got chipped..hehe..that's why i got so damn tempted and brought it on the next day..

i am thinking of doing the side tanning jz from 10pm- 8am..hehe~
so 8am- 10pm will be the normal coloured lighting...tanning at night...
oh yea, if we never did close the lights 24/7, will that interrupt the fish usual behavior?
will that causes confusion to the fish?

RM333? hmm...if i put one more will be 3 lighting edi le..so tempted to put

Leong: since ur red still small, better build the body mass 1st. Later on can focus on tanning. Coz tanning sometimes make the aro stress n lost appetite.

Bensow: don't giveup man. Best man win. Show ur efford!

build body mass? how le?

Pump the aro using food ler. Mp n frog is the best. Sw n feeder fish also not bad.
