Did anyone had connectivity issue 10 minutes ago? Gateway inaccessible minutes ago.

I finally moved into my new house But the average temperature for my 1ft tank is 29.5 without fan. 3ft custom made tank coming in today

Thank you for your hard work

FTS?

My 105 x 40 x 40 tank finally came! Then I was looking at iwagumi style and the guide searched has the exact same measurement with mine..

Thinking of trying out iwagumi style, believing that it is considered an "easy" style for beginners.

You definitely will do it with good results

Does the thickness varies for different tank sizes?

Found polysterene for my 3.5 ft tank from the newly bought furnitures boxes..

The tank has some silicon stains on the middle of the glasses, any idea how do I remove them?

Wouldn't that scratch the glass? Did you meant razor blade?

Mind to tell us how long has it been since you forgotten

You mean it has been in the freezer for half a year

Haha, maybe it gotten used to north pole already by now

Everyone, I need some info on the filter.. I realized that a filter does not help you suck up the excretions / faeces but its main purpose is to pump water through the filter medias. Eventually the excretions / faeces are disintegrated due to the filter media removing the nitrate (not sure whether I am saying the right thing now.)

My HOB filter media has not been changed for half a year plus. Does LFS sell the media for HOB? Or do we have to DIY it?

I can't remember what brand is the filter product is, and I am not sure what the filter has for the media, but I am quite sure it's already lost whatever it has, my tank doesn't seem to clean up itself. The instructions on the product package said to change the media every 3 months and I can see that the filter inside is very little.

I'm thinking, could it be the chemical filtration that is lacking in my tank.. There was so much dirt on lying on the foreground and I have no idea what is wrong.. I bought some cleaners (I don't remember what name was it, but it is short and fat type, not otto), put it in the tank, the next day they cleaned up the dirt for me. But I'm thinking I should improve my filter, probably introduce another HOB (making it 2 for a 1ft tank), or change the media.

How much is it roughly to buy chemical and biological media?

I'll go back and confirm again, but I know the product I bought and the product shown in the box is different

I am searching for ph test kit too, any suggestions on what is good? I searched in lelong for devices and some range at 1000rm to 100rm to 10rm..

I checked there stating 600-750l/hour.. I noticed the water already turning yellow and the dirt all stuck in the filter.. Any ideas what's wrong?

No there is no DW in the tank.. I moved all my fishes and plants to a temporary tank.. no filter for them at the moment.. I cleaned out the tank already, but definitely would require some changes to the filter I believe.. When I washed the tank, the glasses has algae stuck on it but not obvious, the surface felt smooth, unlike what it should be with glass..

Filled my 3.5 ft tank with water and monitored the temperature.. At first it was 30 as I was using shower water (no hose in the bathroom.) It gradually decreased until 28.. When it rained last night, it was 27.4 celcius!! Do you consider this low without fan?
