QUOTE(moorish @ Jan 22 2010, 08:30 AM) very power It is true if you are only selling fishes and products.. try to include some extra services like aquarium cleaning and also setup.. Supplier is not really the problem, its working out the possibility of making a decent living with the lfs. Nowadays things must be cheap, and with so many lfs around when it is cheap you need quantity, without quantity then its dangerous biz. So from what I gather lfs is not really a profitable biz like it used to. The owner in Taman Desa lfs is making very good profit with setup.. |

QUOTE(leong2084 @ Jan 25 2010, 08:56 PM) more!! more!! more vids of your arowanas!!! Wahahaha, reading your post makes me dizzy d... Hey i just wondering rite....for those that play around with brackish water for your aros......is it very difficult task? cuz its like change in p.h during wc can cause the aro to die rite? how to make sure the ph is all good and not to cause the aro to die of ph shock? as in what are the steps taken during water change and when to add the brackish water thingy? Cuz like for me i think about it....assume water is fresh from tap in aquarium (ph.7)- use ac to condition water... then add in the brackish water solution which also at the same time increases the acidity of the water... lets say its at a perfect 6.5....aro lives in the aq for week...all good.. one week after, the p.h cud be like ph6.6 or 6.7 cuz of the amonia-nitrate-nitrite conversion (cycle process) which of the nitrates and nitrites in the water cause the ph to go alkaline a bit... Then its time for a 20% water change.... takes 20% volume water....ph still remains at 6.5-7 adds in anti-chlorine.... adds in tap water (ph.7) into the aq which has water 6.5-7 ------ph balance takes effect-----what is the ph conversion from a 20% water change? then once 20% water replaced.... add in brackish water solution (that is suposed to increase acidity of water) Does the water go back to 6.5? During this stage is what is worrying me....will it make the water too acidic? will there be fluctuations in the ph...1st tap water (ph 7) then brackish water (ph.6.5) Sorry i know i sound messy.... cud anyone enlighten me plz? wud be really gratefull |

QUOTE(leong2084 @ Jan 27 2010, 10:25 PM) hey all, i just got my new 5 ft aquarium today ^^ It will dry eventually... 12mm thickness.? you can start to put water in it now... Pretty sure the silicon is cured by now.. let the water run for couple of hours then remove all of it while scrubbing it clean..... 1st step acomplished lol..... now comes the ironic part....i have ehiem classic canister filter......will it be enuf for the arowana and 3 bichirs? Also the tubing not long enuf zzzz....anyone know where can buy eheim tubing and aprox how much it costs? lol damn i need to budget budget budget >.< took them seriously great effort to carry it up to my room >.< they wet the black foam bottom and then slide the aq over the cabinet...at the bottom got air bubbles in the wet bottom :S they said is like that and will take time for it to evaporate....is that true? sounds dodgy zzzz summore said better wait for another 4-5 days before start to put water in cuz it was just made yesterday night :S after that, is time to setup bio filter system... Do put in a pleco 1st before you add ur other fishes.. They will eat up all the loose silicon for you... and dont worry, it wont die... This post has been edited by pigpig: Jan 28 2010, 12:15 PM |
