Nothing to add except it work fine after 18 months.

FBS is nice and fine and I like it much better for holding anything down. As for DSM vs MTS: my opinion is that they are equivalent but with MTS approach accelerating what will occur naturally in the...

T5NO are 28W. T5HO are 54 watts. Both approximate.

I've got a bottom drilled 90g with 1.5" bulkheads. Beware, they're huge!

Stick with 1".

Your plants eat them!!

No critters? Then don't change water. It isn't necessary.

Jim

A couple of questions:

Thanks

Except for tiny tanks or autodosing applications I've never understood the desire to do liquid dosing. Cheap (dedicated) set of stainless teaspoons used to scoop from the ziplock baggies a couple...

NG?

I'm on the hunt for some melanotaenia praecox.

Jim

I've been thinking about this a bit. My background is in control systems among other things.

There's two "basic" ways to run CO2: open loop and closed loop.

Actually when we run open loop it...

I this the current BR tank? Or another?

Jim

Give them time. They may school at a different elevation once they become acccustomed to the tank, lighting intensity and flora.
