i am just about to add my salt !!! do you have a mixing container for your weekly water changes? how are you going to transfer the water from storage tank to fish tank? what percentage do you think you will do on a weekly basis?

Aiming for 10% weekly, but I'll monitor closely and adjust the amount or regularity if needed.
I've got two buckets just for the marine tank for mixing the salt in for water changes. When I finally fill the tank i'll mix the salt into the tank after its up to temp |

If you've paid for it I would asked them to give you a discount or credit note for fish,coral etc. Tell them you had everything ready to start up. Not fair when it should have been delivered with the tank then.

The thing is the web site I ordered it from made a mistake on the add for the tank, they said stand provided but didn't mean it, so I'm getting the stand for free anyway (and they still haven't edited the website so they'll be losing a fortune in stands they have to give away).
Its all been a bit shoddy, the guy I talked to is decent enough, he just seems a bit embarrassed that they've mucked up so bad. lol |

I don't believe this!!!
Stand came this morning, set the lot up put in position sorted wiring out, tested lights and one of my bulbs has just flickered off! How bad luck is that!!! AGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I'm beginning to think this ain't meant to be! The thing in this picture flickered orange for a few seconds after light went out, does that mean the starter has gone??? ![Open in new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://www.fishkeeping.co.uk/uploads/photos/1607.jpg");) |
