Pet Forum / Aquaria / Goldfish / September 2004cycling
I set up a Juwel Rio 400ltr on friday. I used about 40% of our pond water and added 6 plants fom the pond. I did a 20% water change on tuesday. The latest test kit readings are PH 7.0 Ammonia 0.0 Nitrite 0.0-0.25 (no red or pink, just not clear) Nitrate wasn't even on the scale ie 0.0 is yellow, this stayed clear, unless is hasn't peaked yet ? Also, how do you fix a python to a mixer tap that's too large. It's one of those long broad ones. I can take the insert out, but there's nothing with the python that fits :-( Peter how many fish in there? you may need an adapter. take the insert and your python to the hardware store and ask for the adapter. >I set up a Juwel Rio 400ltr on friday. >I used about 40% of our pond water and added 6 plants fom the pond.

Two small shubunkin about 2 inches. I sorted the Python. :-) I didn't realise you could fit it into the tap if I ignored the universal adaptor and unscrewed the fountain insert in the tap. The instructions are a bit vague though ? I have slate chips and, unless I'm doing it wrong, the python doesn't seem to lift them very well, but it's worth it just for the water changes. > how many fish in there? > you may need an adapter. take the insert and your python to the hardware [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] >> Nitrate wasn't even on the >>scale ie 0.0 is yellow, this stayed clear, unless is hasn't peaked yet ? |
