update.

I have all the media now, Japanese blue matting, 50kg of 'lytag', Kaldness ( thanx Alan) filter wool. just gotta buy the pump and some egg crate next week.

tonight i finished removing the original baffles in the filter (the PVC flexed too much under the pressure and broke the sealant) now have 6mm plate glass baffles installed, gotta wait for the sealant to cure we're away for a weekend before the baby gets here so it'll give the sealant time to cure fully. will post some pics sunday/monday.

Danios doing fine, also added a 10" banded Leporinus (couldn't resist, always liked this sp.)

when i get back i have the filter to set up and then get the U.V. and pump installed.

Mike, do you know what type of pump your going to install?

Mike, do you know what type of pump your going to install?

after some research, i would really like to go for a red dragon/red devil, both have been highly recommended, but i cant really afford one at the mo so i'm going for a 'hozelock aquaforce 12000 lph in the next week or two. hope to upgrade some day for a red dragon/ red devil.

you building a big tank then mate?

 

[mike huntley]

glass baffles all cured nicely now, got a few additional bits to seal into the filter chambers then set it up with this lovely lot................
