These are all approximations, so near enough is good enough. Don't try to get exact parameters otherwise you will be chasing your tail.

Big news, time to update. The Discus have spawned, we have two pairs. They have spawned one at each end of the tank and the fifth fish is just hanging around in the Centre of the tank. 48 hours into the action and they haven't even looked like they are going to eat the eggs. I will add, what is...

Tanks have always been built on a model of " half the length, width, and height. Therefore,18x9x9, 24x12x12, 30x15x15, 36x18x18. Until you get to forty-eight and then you get 48x18x18. 60x18x18. 72x18x18. I hope this answers your question.

I am going to post this and take the backlash for the post. But when ever there is a situation like the one above occurs the common factor is high Nitrates. In my opinion it is important to keep your Nitrates at or as close to zero as possible.

My view is that all the time you should aim to have a slightly acidic tank, this deals with the Ammonia issues in your Aquarium. Of course, there are fish that require hard Alkaline conditions, I am ignoring them. Virtually all freshwater fish will do their best in slightly acidic, slightly...
