  1. As I'm having my new van sign written I could do with knowing the font of the attached image please Anyone know it? Cheers!
  2. No problem dude! No need to say sorry, just have a look at the forum and where things belong
  3. No, I mean this belongs in a thread at the top which is a sticky, called 'best of internet'
  4. Long time no speak also Matt! Sounds a great idea, I must agree it would be much easier in a small van ie a transit connect (which I have for sale) hehe. Cardiff is a big place, jobs could be miles apart for a start. As for the College idea, I'd try and pick up a round, as in, regularly go to Cardiff uni on one day and possibly drive to Swansea another?
  5. Cheers dude, This topic can be close now!
  6. Hello all, I have tried e-mailing and starting conversations via msn to Jon Mack to simply ask for login details to word press which he built my website on, my website is dated and I have found another web designer who's prepared to sort it out. I know Jon maybe busy, but I'm not asking for much, just a quick reply with my log in details which I feel I deserve if he's not prepared to continue to look after my website. Any help would be most appreciated. Luke
  7. Can't agree more, can't say I like it! Looked good when it was white, looked amazing purple, now eurghhh!
  8. They are, well, gold fish aren't :L We have probably put people far off the idea of ever keeping tropical fish!!
  9. Yerr, this lad knows all there is to be known about fish by the sounds of things... Yes you could put a heater in, but what's the point when you can just leave water over night and forget about it without purchasing a heater. Fluval make the best pumps in my opinion, they seem to work for us anyways we have 2, 1 either side. One minute you are saying change water once a week, now it's 6 months, make up your mind... Like I say, we have had our tank going for 20+ years so I think we may possibly know what we are talking about. We run our tank exactly the same as Chris at plymouth discus and he knows everything there is to know. All I know is, we can keep our Discus for years, and they are fish that have to be in perfect conditions.
  10. When changing water you should put a bucket of water to stand over night to get to room temperature, you should add Tetra aqua safe to this. Personally I only change water on a monthly basis and only 20 - 25% at one time. NEVER take all the water out. Always wash the filters in the aquarium water that's been taken out. When replacing filter sponges only replace one at a time. On a weekly basis I use Tetra nitrate minus, API ammonia lock and Waterlife bacteria life. These shouldn't all be added at once. Between those they will keep your water fresh. Once your tank has matured you can also use Tetra easy balance and that can cut your water changes down to, 2-3 month. The less you fuss with the fish the better it is! If you are keeping the Tetra family your water needs to be between 6.5 and 6.8 ph. You can get a water life bacteria life powder which will automatically set it to this. If you would like me to write a complete list of how I run my tank I will happily do this for you. I would recommend Chris @ www.plymouthdiscus.co.uk for all your Tropical needs! He's a top man, mention that Malcolm Bowen sent you there
  11. Jbl creature? Look on eBay, got mine for around £40 - postage inclusive! Brilliant speakers well, anything jbl is good !
  12. I'll try and get some pics of mine and my fathers tropical tank which has been running for around 20 years. We keep a few discus mixed with cardinals, rummy nose tetras etc. I notice people are discusing water changes, I'll put a post up tomorrow of how we do it and clean our filters. We only use still bottled water in our tank to eliminate all the crap that comes from the tap, chlorine etc! I dont want to sound up my arse, but there's not much I dont know about tropical fish, so if you need to know anything fire some questions at me!!
  13. I can create a topic 'counselling for Dave'' if that helps?
