omg is that really windelov and zebra nerite... i bought them on a flea market last night and the seller just told me it's just ferns and algae eating snails, lol...

sNApple · 06-07-2007, 03:25 AM

take the windelov out

ikuzo · 06-07-2007, 04:20 AM

care to explain why?

RachPreach · 06-07-2007, 06:09 AM

you found aquarium plants at a plan ole flea market?

ikuzo · 06-07-2007, 08:49 AM

no no, what i meant is that in the city where i live, there's this night market that only occurs during wednesday and saturday night that sells a lot of aquarium fish. there are some people there that sell plants, and just recently this year, almost half of them are selling plants there with cheap prices.

ikuzo · 06-08-2007, 12:23 PM

ok is this enough light? i mean i put the 5 watts lamp in a glass shelf above the aquarium like this :

dufus · 06-08-2007, 04:10 PM

can you get a spiral copmpact screw in bulb?
that would be a bit more light for you for cheap.

ikuzo · 06-09-2007, 12:17 AM

spiral compact screw means more lenght and i need a new housing to make the placing on the upper glass deck flat.

dufus · 06-09-2007, 12:37 AM

huh?
What kind of light do you have on there?
i thought it was a desklight.

No, I don't think that is enough light. I pictured the lamp sitting directly on top of the tank.

well it is something like that but with watts compact screw (the shortest available), i'll post a picture of it later.

Wasserpest
if it's directly on top, will 5 watts enough, or should i get a higher lighting, seomething like 13 watts?

dufus · 06-09-2007, 03:04 AM

with it that far above, i'd you for 13-18 wwatts, to give you low light, but enough to grow the anubias.

ikuzo · 06-09-2007, 03:35 AM

allright i'm gonna buy a clip-on 13 watts lighting this weekend.
