RE: J's humble abode!!!
Hi, I really like your aquarium. But isn't it hard to clean and such?

I used to have an aquarium as well, only 65 litre though. Let me tell you, it was a real hazzle to keep clean. Sometimes I'd get so tired of it I wanted to impale someone. So I ended up selling it.

Peroxide? Crikey. Doesn't that kill the fish?
In retrospect, I think I may have overfed the fishes a little, as I always had trouble with algae. I had one of those magnetic scrabing things on the front of the aquarium, but it couldn't get the worst of it away.

Do you have a hard time getting in to it, for example if you have to replace a rock, or one of the fishes die?

Ah, thanks. :-) I never considered peroxide as a solution to removing algae.

And I understand about the closet now. I thought the bottom of it was just above the top of the aquarium. That's a really clever setup.

RE: J's humble abode!!!
happens to my uncle all the time azumi but never to me!
-usually will happen after a water change, NEVER do a full water change only 30-50%.
-you need a good filter that can cope with the amount of fish in your tank n if it can't it will get cloudy!
-also could be algae blooms in the water but that would kinda have a greenish hue to it as far as i no but u could try: http://www.edirectory.co.uk/pf/880/mia/d...id/5166415 - green away, but i doubt that is the problem.
-also aeration in the tank could effect it so get a bubble blower thing, i have bubbles the length of the back of my aquarium on about 2 days a week.

n e of them n e help??
