Just added a bunch of duckweed and azola to one of my tanks as its supposed to be great at sucking up straight ammonia and have plugged my backup air pump into the mains power as well, hope there's no power outage!

I'll cross my fingers for you, I've had my own run of crappy luck lately, and I'm just getting home now to see what the latest death toll is. Are there any that are eating size yet that will allow you to thin the herd?

can someone tell me if I have this right please?
My water is 14c (although it's going to be 28 here today so it will warm a bit this afternoon).
My Ph is 6.6.
so according to the chart my ammonia needs to get to approximately 21 ppm to become toxic?
Is that right?

Thereabouts. Low temps and low pH definitely help :-)

The leaves on my rhubarb are huge but the stalks dont grow very long, I got the crowns from my mum, said hers have short stalks too but not leaves like this.

A couple of regrown leeks.
they never really got fat I guess from living in the shadows of the rhubarb but they are going to seed now so best we eat them.

water is back down to 16c again today, which is rad as I netted some fish today just for a sticky beak and they still look to be only 20 - 25cm long, no idea how much they would weigh but I'm guessing not much.
my water is murky looking again after harvesting all my kale and stirring up the silt, which is why I had to use the net to see any fish.
oh well, first world problems hey!
