MY flying fox and cory also same..always go there n destroy all my cdarpets..end up i have to tweeze in again..so mafan..i used to use the tweezer to hit their punggung piakPiak* if ure airpump can change speed setting, use low speed la, if not, try to put clamp/clothes peg at the hose to reduce flow. if got spare money, go get airpump flow regulator to reduce the flow rate. or atttach multiple airstone with same multiple hose and place at different place in the tank using only one air pump. wow u piak-king them on their butt, lmfao

Well, just share bit, I went to hardware store, bought some pvc pipe and turned it into 'U' turn so when I do WC, no need stand and hold the hose, i just hang it on my aquarium (of cos u set ur own water flow from the main water faucet lah). Copied this after i saw how the LFS here do it. So i change water quite fast now. Plus i use the sucker tool to suck out the water so WC/adding can be done easily I just recently bought an auto feeder something like this with 2 drums (1 big and 1 small) http://www.pethealthusa.com/ph-a2013.html mine can set either to feed every 12 hours/24 hours only. Not that canggih where can feed how many times a day already 1 week plus, battery still good in it, chapalang battery plus there is an additional button on top, press it and it will feed in manual mode it's good enuf for when I'm away for a week, last time i was away for 5 days, just throw in those fish food type that can last 3/7/10 days but some fish not really sure what it was, so when I came back some of my fish quite kurus already...kasian wah..the auto food dispenser soo kinda mahal Shoot@M3, how much did u buy it for? i went out jalan jalan again during office hours just now to lfs.. (this time the tauke so frendly la.. but when i go out, he said, aiyoo u dont want to buy anything ka? i got ADA soil give good price too you~ what? no use soil meh? nvm, u can use them to plant ure mummy pokok bunga , bla bla..lol) saw those food dispenser about RM35-45 each..sigh seems like auto dispenser need to wait till can find good price anyway..can anyone comment on my auto wc system diagram?, its not perfect but its still work in progress. hoping the sifus can help me pinpoint future problems area... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
