Re: Shall I chuck my driftwood?
I would also echo what a lot of people have said on here. Too much light would be the first thing to investigate. Then maybe too much food? If you have adult fish, they do not need that much food (juveniles and fry are a completely different story). Increase water changes too. It is rare that the pr...

RE: fishless cycle break
Good to hear the ammonia is finally coming down Jon_D. Fingers crossed it completes the aerobic cycle quickly. What fish are you hoping to put in? Realised I made an error earlier - the fish I'm getting are Cynotilapia afra "Jalo Reef". Already thinking I should have just got a larger tank...

Greetings.
Hello and welcome. Your tanks looks great.
Are the Corys breeding well? I love breeding these fish. I once demonstrated to an old student of mine how cool their breeding is and ended up with about 1000 within a couple of months.
