Hey guys,

I've set this thread up for DBD (David)

He's set up an AP system and is having bad plant growth and fish deaths.

Ive told him how helpful we are on here and that we'll sort him out in no time :)

David is quite keen to catch up with a fellow AP'er in melbourne, he comes down to bundoora every now and then. If you're in a position to have a chat with him and show off your system i'm sure he'd love it.

From what i've been told so far he has a two bath tub system. I've suggested that he buy a master test kit and get some PH and Ammonia readings to us so we can begin to steer him in the right direction.

If anyone has the link to the master testkit online shop could you please post it here.

Steve.

don't know your local link to online on the master test kit

I purchased mine at a local fish/pet store. Worth the investment.

I am using it daily to monitor ammonia in a heavily loaded 10 gallon aquarium. I think it will be daily 50% water changes until I get a growbed bio-filter running for the low style 30 gallon tank I will use in the basement. These convicts are too aggressive to be so cramped. They were no cost-- but must take now kinda deal-- wasn't prepared well.

yeah post your information DBD let these guys kick it around some.

I think Steem could make that distance on his bike.... As long as he had a map..... and GPS. Avoiding the freeways of course... :)

Perth guys and Monya will get what I am talking about... :)
