i got a new fish tank, a lovley hexagonal one, bought it for £30 off a friend who assured me the filter (a reasonable good one ) was fine and ready to go and the heater was great too, so i thought yup £30 is a bargain,
I already have a big tank with my puffer fish in, who are like two little lap dogs lol, and i have always wanted a smaller more ornate tank for some neon tetras, which i think are so beautiful and schoal sp? beautifully, so i assembled the tank, bought some lovley purple grit and some nice ornaments, and then realised the filter had no insides, so i bought the bits inside which cost about £8 for the two types that go int here, (could have bought a new fluval2+ for a few quid extra >:-( ) put that in and then the heater which started practically boiling the water, 8| no matter how low i turned it down, so that went in the bin and a new heater was bought for £12, now the piggin light wont work, and im seriously considering buying a complete new light unit as the one thats with it is flurescent and although i have replace the starter and i know the bulb hasnt gone cos it does flash on now and again, i dont knwo whats wrong with it, so im lkley to have to buy a new light unit which with bulb is gonna cost int he region of £15, coupled with the gravel and everything this bleeding tank has cost me about 75 quid already and there isnt a bloodey tetra in sight yet, :##
