QUOTE(meowmeow520 @ Apr 10 2009, 05:07 PM) as green as possible monthly maintenance sure got abit work lo... such as fertilizing, water change, pickup dead plants/fish... normal co2 tank can last u for about a year before refilling needed, depending on bps rate... usually small tank needs less bps... 5-6 fishy and some shrimp btw is there any monthly maintenance $ needed if using the Co2 tank? i would like to go for 1 time expense only... since u have rm500 budget, mayb u can invest more in proper substrate setup.... a nice tank with nice lighting housing do look appealing, though will cost abit more... as for water filter, a HOB will be sufficient for small 1ft nano tank... using a canister filter will cause too strong water current in ur tank... normally when setting up a planted tank, first time setup will cost abit more den usual... monthly maintenance will cost much cheaper... especially when u're having small tanks.... |

QUOTE(chuppy2 @ Apr 16 2009, 08:19 PM) What time is it when your lights turn on? If the surrounding is dark then your light suddenly turn on, they're prone to be spooked! about 530pm... consider dark??..Drew |

QUOTE(meowmeow520 @ Apr 16 2009, 10:55 PM) well....do we really nid to filled up the tank to 90%??? coz i using HOB, i need to fill the water level until the lips of the HOB filter... if not when the filter is running, water gushing out from the filter outlet will ruin the scape below it.... if u using external canister not necessary i guess...or setup a cover so that fishy will not jump out commited suicide.... |
