Hi all! My name is Aedan Norris, and I just joined this forum. I am very happy to be a part of the community and to share my interests in the world of aquaristics. I am a novice aquarist and my passion for fish and the underwater world is just beginning to blossom. I have a small aquarium at home and am fascinated by the variety of beautiful fish and plants that can be kept in an aquarium. My current project is to create a planted aquarium with an emphasis on low-growing plants and scenic rocks. I am also interested in learning about and breeding different species of fish, especially those that peacefully coexist in the aquarium community. I am here to share my accomplishments, ask questions, and get valuable advice from experienced aquarists. I'm sure your community has a lot of knowledge and experience to share, and I look forward to your support and help in my aquarium journey. I look forward to interacting with you and learning new things about the world of aquaristics. Thank you so much for welcoming me and for welcoming me into your community!

Best wishes,
Aedan Norris.

Welcome Aedan! Hope you have a wonderful time here and I'm always willing to lend a hand when it comes to all things fishy.

Have a look at the rasboras in your local fish store(LFS), they are very peaceful for a planted tank and maybe stay away from tiger barbs as they can be a bit nippy to other fish. I suggest rasboras as they are hardy and peaceful, and maybe when you're a bit of an expert - some apistogramma would be nice.

 

cheers

      Finally set up the 30L Shrimp Tank

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      It has been a few weeks now and I have done a couple of large water changes. I tested the water parameters this morning, GH6 and KH2, TDS 140 and PH 7.5. Obviously the PH is off but there isn't anything in the tank that should cause the PH to rise to this figure so I will just run the tank for another month with 10% weekly water changes (probably just with RO water) and see where we are at that point. The RO water tests at PH6, and the KH and GH in the tank could come down as they are at the upper limits for Caridina shrimps! There are only about 10 very small snails in there at this point, but they seem to be doing well enough.

      Pure Red Line (PRL) Shrimps Western Australia seller

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      I believe these to be very rare in Australia so you may even consider making it a longer term plan and produce your own by starting with the best CRS you can get as that is where the pure lines started! Depends how patient and interested in the project you are, but would save money as well? If I recall correctly it takes from 8 generations of selective breeding? They sell them at micro aquatic shop but do not ship to Western Australia, but that means they are available in Australia. https://microaquaticshop.com.au/products/pure-red-line-grade-ss-shrimp Good luck and just maybe smeone on here may point you in the right direction or be able to supply you with some.

      Is this garden hose end alloy pipe safe to use for aquarium piping?

      By Subtlefly · Posted

      Yes it’s super accurate to position where I want now and stay there- I am satisfied.  All the fish and shrimpers are doing excellent! Coming up on 4 years running!

      You must be pleased with that, it looks better and is much more robust and less likely to damage or leaks! The tank looks very natural now it has been running for a time. I see the ember tetras, how are the blue shrimp doing, I see a few? The cat and dog look very content and unimpressed, lol.
