"Der Ewige Kreis" - "The Eternal Circle" - To be Torn Down

I have a filter, but its HOB. I have higher grade activated carbon, from a Marineland filter cartridge. I am putting that in, lets see if that helps.

you may not notice a big change, actually you probably wont even notice a change at all. if you do it will be minimal. nothing much to do but wait.

in my experience, cloudiness from gravel (granted i never used AS) goes away faster if you just shut off the filter and let it settle. if you dont notice enough of an improvement by tomorrow, shut everything off before you leave home and when you come back there should be some progress.

also, please tell me you have planting foreceps/tweezers/tongs.

**fishman9809** · 05-11-2008, 06:56 PM

i have regular tweezers, but they are not the long kind, just like regular tweezers.

**@marko@** · 05-11-2008, 07:00 PM

ok thats good enough (will be annoying for you, but better then nothing). because if you went digging with your fingers in the AS while planting you would kick up a HUGE amount of dust.

**fishman9809** · 05-11-2008, 07:02 PM

yea, maybe I can see if my connection (goalcreas), has any tweezers.

**@marko@** · 05-11-2008, 07:06 PM

theyre expensive, so if you are still on a small budget dont try. if you convinced your parents to pay for "the supplies" then tweezers are a neccissary item, without which you cant do anything, and the regular kind are of course not good enough (if they need specific reasons just tell me, i can think of a dozen or so)

**fishman9809** · 05-11-2008, 07:10 PM

lol, ok, anyway, I still need pygmy chain sword and amazon frogbit, so hopefully my dad lets me get revolutionmoneyexhange.com, so I can buy those from the forums here from other people who have it, since you get 25 free. lol.

**@marko@** · 05-11-2008, 07:11 PM

25 free? thats pretty good.

**fishman9809** · 05-11-2008, 07:13 PM

yea, but I dont think he wants me doing it. well, I hope he does, so I can order today and get plants soon.

I like it better more to the side then when it was more in the middle.
I like that it can leave an open space for schooling fish.

**fishman9809** · 05-12-2008, 05:11 AM

yea, but then it would have room to make an interesting aquascape.

Huh? is that a question or comment.
Would it have room, yes. it is nice to have open area's with ground cover and some mid ground plants towards the back IMO

**fishman9809** · 05-12-2008, 05:38 AM

well, I'm not gonna move it again, more crap will get stirred up.

I got some reptile feeding tweezers from petco for 5.99, the work great for planting small stuff and are way easier than using small ones.

**fishman9809** · 05-12-2008, 05:48 AM
