Another question anyone have plans for a good aquarium sump?

[cornfused]

Kois and sustainable vegetation = the following

1. Water Hyacinth - + ve - the roots provide nutrients and they multiply really fast in the right conditions
+ve - have a pretty flower

-ve - They reproduce so fast that they may affect the nitrate and ph levels in your pond /vessel in the absence of strong filtration system .
Needs a weekly clean up of rotting leaves stems .
Readily available in our water ways but wash very well ,if taken from those areas .

2. Water Cabbage +ve again the roots koi love and they grow quickly
+ve low maintenance
-ve not very durable to the sun we are having of late
-ve don't grow fast enough for koi

3. Water Lilly +ve the prettiest flow in the TnT water plant world
+ve durable because it usually in a potted plant and some large enough stones would prevent the kois from accessing the roots
-ve Maybe the most expensive plant -ve maybe the least benificail to the biological system


4. Fox Tail +ve kois love this maybe a bit too much , it grows fast , not affected by sun .
-ve no flowers

5. Duck weed +ve a koi favorite , does not grow fast enough in my application

With koi I would recommend having the plants in two places . Koi eat well and would consume most vegetation in a vessel , so having the plats growing in a separate vessel or open filter would ensure that there is a "continuous" plat supply for your fish .

Hi guys, I heard that there is a local site that breeders/retailers post their fishes for sale? Has anyone else heard of a site like that? I'd like to get some more info about it.

Hey, i collected a few rocks from the beach and was wondering if i can place them in a freshwater aquarium if i scrub them, boil them and soak them first ? Or maybe do a pH test on them as well or should i not risk placing them in the aquarium ?

[Trinifisher]

I have used rocks and coral with only a wash, salt water bugs can't live in fresh water. My opinion.

Coral will slowly raise your pH so if you have sensitive species that prefer slightly acidic conditions like amazonians you might want to keep an eye on it.
