5x2.5x2.5 Planted Tank - New pic update 19.11.07
mark_1 replied to Fish Crazed's topic in Community Tank
iv found that a good addition t any planted tank r the new T5 lights. they are such a good unit compared to the old lights goen round. they areputting out the same amount of light as metal halides but are cheaper and less heat. iv seen them light up 3.5 foot deep tanks perfectly with no trouble. just think what one of these could do to a planted tank -
i work in a fish shop and i found if u start the young barra'son fish pellets and blood worms they will eat that but once u introduce live food they soon turn off the pellets and only want live foods

iv heard sum storys down at work that many people put a small peice of copper pipe in the tank and the small levels of coppr kill the snails with out killing your fish. and lately more people hav said it works a treat.
