Is it just me or is Kleinz's voice very sensual and soothing?

why not just put some siamese flying fox in there? i cleared out a 6ft tank that was riddled with it, just by putting 8 or so of them in there. took 2-3 months tho.


that only works if they are the only fish in the tank and you dont feed them... as soon as they get the taste for fish food bba is off the menu....

So I pulled the cannister apart today for a clean (2215) and lo and behold there were a number of trumpet snails living happily within.

Guess Johnno gets to say "I told you so"...

The rest of the tank is still clear, though, so I will have to see if there are any in there next time I clean the filter.

Catfish is pretty happy though despite lack of snails, as I forgot to get a batch of BN fry out before they left the cave and he got to hunt down 80 tasty BN fry.

Pulled out the rainbows and turned half the lights off (left only the 10k on) and the BBA is dying back. I had tried nearly everything else. Go figure.
