QUOTE(danny_sp15 @ Mar 3 2015, 07:21 PM) 2 feet memang no space. cos im keeping the tank in room.  just vacuumed the dirt manually. stirred the water a bit to bring up the debris so that can suck easier. turns out all the debris now stuck in between the cabomba plant.  Also manually calculated my filter rate. At lowest setting, it's filtering at 90L/hr. So that part kawtim. then i suggest you to go with 1.5ft then, not too big, not too small. just nice i guess... |

QUOTE(tehoice @ Mar 3 2015, 11:58 PM) everyone has their own way of keeping, if you know what you're doing and you can handle it, then no problem. but given the situation you mentioned above, i think it's quite a risk. i won't put my 200 bucks guppy in there/like this. the killer part is the weekly water change. i would do at least 30-40 or even 50% of water change every 2-3 days. noted about the water change cycle.  |

QUOTE(EternalC @ Mar 4 2015, 12:01 AM) noted about the water change cycle. the key is the water condition, if its healthy, then your fish will too be healthy. keep the water running with air pump for 2 days before changing. i always do that. at least 1 day. but some ppl just use direct filtered water treated with anti chlorine, no deny that you can keep it that way too, it's all about sharing, |

Memang active all the time and like to kacau each other, but no serious injury or anything. So far all looks healthy The torn fin on the big one Im monitoring first. If they keep on nibbling him, might have to return him to the pond. Update on pond:  Got foam filter now. Doesnt help much with mechanical filtration, but hopefully the biological filter will establish well. Algae growth is still as persistent as before. But I guess it will provide food for the fry.  The water cabbage is growing a bud! Hopefully it wont die off like last time. |

QUOTE(danny_sp15 @ Mar 1 2015, 12:23 AM) Thanks for your suggestions  Stopped by a petshop today, they're selling Ottos for 4.50 each. They seem to work really hard sucking every inch of the aquarium, but I'm just worried it might not be as hardy as the guppies and might not survive the pond. The Golden Chinese Algae Eaters i have are not helping much with controlling the algae. The black gravel in the aquarium is kinda okay i guess. Not too sharp, but I wouldnt say smooth. The guppies seem to be okay for now. Not sure if it will be safe for corydoras or ottos. Sharing pics    Bro, I wanna ask about the tank u have there. How many litres capacity? And the table you assembled can take on the weight? Where to get it? |

Small tank, 1ft only. about 11L capacity. The table, i think should be ok. they didnt mention the max capacity it's solid pine though. RM29.90 from Ikea. |
