Still awaiting the delivery from that Discus place........ Hoping it will be in today but there was a bank holiday weekend and there is a lot of fog today so fingers crossed......

Dosed the tank this evening.......

How long do i have to wait before i can put my PolyFilter back in????????

polyfilter pads shouldn't make any difference, they're used for removing fine particles in the water, it's the black carbon pads that strip medications and other impurities out of the water, they should be left out until treatment has finished

naaaaaa, PolyFilter (as in the brand name) It is a chemical filter pad that I use instead of carbon pads.....

P.S. your GSP is a beauty, do you have any pictures of the full tank?

thank you very much, there are a few pics in the album ug.php/v/User_Galleries/Jay_B/
not full tank shots, but wider shots than below, I'll get some mote full shots taken in a few days

I highly suggest soaking his foods in the med, for a week.

That sounds like a good idea. Should i mix up the same volume of med as i did to dose the tank and soak? I don't want to overdose him.

That would be the plan. Try to soak for at least 2 hours. You may have to add garlic for better taste.

garlic!!!!!!!! He is not French!

Don't ask me why they like it, they just do! That's funny--when I think garlic, I think Italian.

Is that why I like garlicy foods so much?
