hi there, i'm having problem with my tank being too small, and crowded so look like very messy.

Now thinking to get a new tank about 1.5ft size, any idea roughly how much it will be? thank you so much >"<

btw, having a 2ft tank to let go as it is a bit too big for my guppy and neon >"<

just about time and ur lucky day.... but before that, may i know ur 2ft tank spec? the thickness of the glass? and also if the tank have bracings? is the tank have any leakage?
if all the answer just fit as what i wanted, i have 1.5ft tank INCLUDING cabinet and im ready to just swap with u for that 2ft tank. my reason is just because i need a 2ft tank and i dont need my 1.5ft tank anymore and i dont want to keep it either for extra space smile.gif

hehe... one thing about me, im a shopping kaki (until pokkai liao). so i know which LFS restocking what and when usually. hahahaha...!!! but this week, ya... i agree with u due to CNY, some low-traffic LFS might not taking anything. Ah Yee also didnt take so much this week. that's why im targetting for MV since they have quite a traffic there.... and i wonder if they gonna close long for CNY anyway since they still have malay workers too.

whatever it is, im going there after work today!!! w00t!!! (i might buy nothing other than rotala... but who knows? bring money ngam-ngam only. duh!)

Hey guys, I just semi-finished my plastic plant tank after some grueling work. It's a huge 6 x 2.5 x 2.5 feet tank and quite hard to fill properly thanks to the huge vertical space. I needed to find something that looked like roots. Had to make do with weighted tree branches, old ones of course.

Meanwhile, the huge driftwood with the rocks on it is still annoyingly floating. I wonder how long something big like that will take to sink. Any suggestions or should I weigh it down? No fishes yet as I want to run it for a week or more to improve water quality. What do you guys think of the design? Any suggestions or constructive criticism most welcome!

Meanwhile, I am looking for a reputable shop anywhere in Malaysia that can get me better looking plastic plants since the ones I have are kinda short, I wonder if there are taller ones? As well as fake hollow rocks to spice up the place a little. Any help guys?

PS: Sorry for my bad photos, low quality camera here.

you should get it quite easy.... i think so many people having glosso in their tank (just not me.. i hate it).
btw, glosso at shop also very cheap nowadays... and they so far never runs out of stock.

- err.. what do u mean by 'plastic plant tank'? means all artificial plants in there? no live plants?

- for the wood, u should have soaked it earlier before u setup ur tank. for now, the most u could do if you want to let it in the tank is anchor it with more 'heavier' rocks.
those river stone for sure will not hold the wood from floating. heh... buy some aquascaping rocks, then tie the wood to the rock or vice versa. by time, it will submerged without need to tie anymore.

- comments, dunno what to comment except the wood is SOO BIG!!! but it's 6ft tank anyway.
if u want more woods, go to Natural Aquatic World at Subang. They have the wood in the size suitable for ur tank and 'branchy' as u wanted. Below is the address.
CODE
No. 17, Jalan SS19/6,
47500 Subang Jaya,
Selangor Darul Ehsan,
Malaysia.
Tel & Fax: +603 5633 1368

- reputable shop for plastic plants? why u need a reputable shop for it? just find a shop... LOL! but to have longer version? hurm... i dont know. never looked for artificial plants anyway.
maybe u could try to buy those artificial plant from flowershop then glue a stone on it, then put in ur tank. at least those shop got sell 'long' grass.

Reputable since I don't plan to travel too far, I'm currently in Taiping and the selection here is absolutely horrible. If I wanna get anything it's probably by post. Meanwhile I have tried asking about plastic plants in flowershop but apparently the plastic there is bad and will rot in a watery environment. Or so that's what they claim. tongue.gif

hey i have some question about fish food
my tk2 tetra, congo tetra and german ram color kind of not shining out
my question is
does getting those better quality fish food (some says enhancing color etc) will really bring out the colors of the fish? or is it just hoax to bring ppl to buy the products?

if it's really true can bring out the colors of fish, can someone recommend me some for my tetras, barbs and ram?

thx smile.gif
