Hmm, okay I was told a while ago that when scratched it will shatter or spiderweb. I guess I was misinformed, sorry :redface:

Are your pumps submersible or external? If they're external and there's no possible way your pump can access air, you may have a leak on the suction line.

I understand that tempered glass panes will show a pattern when viewed with polarizing lenses. Or you can scratch it... tempered glass shatters when the tension is broken :wink:

Hmm, I hadn't heard that. Good to know! I've gone as far as adding iron rich clay to the substrate of my planted tanks before, when I was growing Crypts.

I think that's what's referred to as a 'massive water change'? That's probably not necessary... but those fish aren't going to do well at all in that tank. You'll need to find a new home for them...
