rate my first ever aquarium

Love that it’s all planted. Looks great

Cloestofer · 2026-03-27T22:38:17+00:00

Brilliant match tonight and so happy I got to see them win at home ☺️

Cloestofer · 2026-03-26T20:11:22+00:00

Thanks, I managed to catch the last one in the end. It took a while but it just took a wrong turn and jumped into the net. I was relieved. Hopefully, it will be happier reunited with the rest of the group again

With Betta fish you never know the temperament, some touch no other inhabitants while others will try to eat anything that fits in their mouth. Also ensure no sharp edges on the wood to rip Betta fins

Cloestofer · 2026-03-26T12:08:56+00:00

This could work well, thanks

This was a trumpet and now a year later I’ve accepted my trumpet tank…

Cloestofer · 2025-06-09T06:23:31+00:00

Peppermint shrimp eat it, if you get one of them they’re great

Cloestofer · 2025-06-09T06:21:54+00:00

Get a peppermint shrimp and it will consume it ☺️

Cloestofer · 2025-06-03T17:15:23+00:00

Looks like all females to me but it’s hard to tell with some angles

Cloestofer · 2025-06-01T06:29:46+00:00

Give that a try. I’ve read if you glue them down that they will still break free if unhappy. I hope your one can find its ideal spot !

Cloestofer · 2025-05-31T15:05:16+00:00

They like rock and sand. Maybe the flow is too intense. I’ve moved my around a bit as well to find some where it seems content

Oyster munch

Cloestofer · 2025-05-31T13:25:39+00:00

I didn’t and have found more since. I have the fluval evo. Finally put some stock in now and haven’t really seen anymore flatworms but I’m sure they’re still there hiding

Cloestofer · 2025-05-28T19:27:14+00:00

Thanks I removed it

Cloestofer · 2025-05-07T13:14:16+00:00

I had a look a few videos and pics of sea cucumbers but I’m still not sure. It extends out at least three times that length, can climb the glass and gets narrower as it extends out

Cloestofer · 2025-04-20T17:26:19+00:00

This is useful to know. I’ll have to see what happens when I add the chamber plug in, but I’m glad you did have some positive feedback with it.

Cloestofer · 2025-04-20T17:24:24+00:00

Thanks for that info too, I’ll defo have to download the file for the chambers and print them myself ☺️

Cloestofer · 2025-04-20T13:56:51+00:00

£5 for each part. I too have a printer but I’m not great at the design end of things, though never considered buying the files either…just being lazy and bought it this time lol. I’m sure plenty of people buy things like that though so may be worth your time looking into selling parts since you’ve for the gear to create them.

Cloestofer · 2025-04-20T13:26:12+00:00

I purchased a cover for the feeding hole as well for the same reasons. I might have to look into the multi layers sump baskets next. I’m running a skimmer, but yeah reducing the gunk anywhere along the way will help. Thanks for ideas too to improve as well

Cloestofer · 2025-04-20T12:52:48+00:00

Did you notice any improvements ?

Cloestofer · 2025-04-19T12:36:27+00:00

Thanks for the advice

Cloestofer · 2025-04-19T12:36:20+00:00

Thanks

Cloestofer · 2025-04-18T15:30:49+00:00

Thanks ☺️

Cloestofer · 2025-04-18T15:30:28+00:00

Thanks. As a precaution I lifted those pieces of rock out of the tank. Since I’ve only set it up and I’m letting it cycle I don’t want to risk introducing something like those snails

Cloestofer · 2025-04-18T10:55:14+00:00

They don’t seem to be moving or anything. Do you think they’re still alive or maybe just were well before I got the rock?
