20-10-2006 12:57 by OLD MAN	right just brought my pipes for my filter cost me £14 quid for 6m with the proper fluval ends and 1st class next day delivery.. carnt be bad! right heater i have a juwel internal filter so my heater is in that box, the new external filter is goin in so box is coming out! dont want my fish to burn them selfs on the heater what can i wrap around it to stop them doing so?? while i get my external heater? thanx ppl
20-10-2006 13:07 by JOHANSWAN	i took my juwel intarnal filter out as it was the jumbo and took far too much space up and the strongflow off my box was no goog for my discus as it bewildered them
20-10-2006 13:08 by OLD MAN	that is what i have done. my new fluval has twice the flow of the juwel unit tho! im thinking of a spray bar to try and slow it down a bit
20-10-2006 13:09 by OLD MAN	what did you do with your heater mate?
20-10-2006 13:09 by OLD MAN	im worryed they wil get burnt on it? i want an external heater eventualy
20-10-2006 13:14 by JOHANSWAN	fish arent stupid they arent going to swim against something hot they will avoid the heater due to the immediate heat it sends out spraybar good idea but only on period to make it look like rain i also did not heat my water for waterchange just put it in cold as rainwater in natural habitat is cold and the sudden change in watertemp due to waterchange trigger off spawning for basic all fish everytime i did such a waterchange on my tank my nannacaras use to spawn due to the soft cold water
20-10-2006 13:17 by OLD MAN	i dont think they will swim into it. im more conserned one will get chased and brush on it or somthing?
20-10-2006 13:25 by JOHANSWAN	just get yourself a heater gaurd i bit of plastic surounding the heater they work great or hide heater in corner as the fish dont swim into corners but heatergaurd is your best bet juwelfilters is in any case a pain to clean as it dirty your whole tank before you got it out
20-10-2006 13:27 by OLD MAN	yer it does. mine will be gone this weekend

20-10-2006 16:12 by craig	you guys shouldnt complain about water gettin dirty from removing filter u should be cleaning it in tank water any ways
20-10-2006 18:00 by OLD MAN	YER YOU DONT WANT ALL THE *** IN YOUR TANK THO DO YOU!!
20-10-2006 20:38 by robert.pope	Old man ...i use a fluval spray bar ....its larger than my tank needs ...... i reduce the water flow by having the spray bar under the water surface......and if it was still to strong point the spraybar towards the back of the tank.......the deflection of the back seams to work well Just a thought .....HTH
20-10-2006 21:16 by OLD MAN	TAR MATE. AT THE END OF THE DAY YOU CAN TURN THE FLUVAL DOWN WITH A FLOW LEVER. WILL HAVE TO SEE, GOING TO GET A SPRAY BAR 2OZ.
