PM sent for a batch of styro.

Hello Biollante,

The tank is new but I used the canister filter from my 135 so there shouldn't have been any cycling. The main stress point was cramming plants in the tupperware. The roots and...

Looks like a dead black worm, often sold as blood worms at fish stores. I used to feed my fish live black worms and after sitting in my fridge for a few days some would die and turn a cream color...

I recently purchased a 240 gallon tank to replace my 135 gallon. Prior to the new tank, I redid my floor which forced my to move my 135 gallon tank twice. During the move I used tupperware filled...

It has promise. I like the idea. I personally love rock scapes but my aquatic weed addiction has put too much value on useable real estate. I've slowly taken all rocks out and my manzanita has...

Big props for having a dream and following through with it.

I found this when I googled PH and snails. http://www.applesnail.net/content/various/snail_disease.php

shell detoriation: superficial wormholes; deep holes, loss of shell top
To have a good...

I know you have considered this thread closed but I have had this happen to me several times. My tank is usually a snail breeding ground but every so often I notice all my MTS stop moving and their...

Very wild and rustic, I like it.

I just purchased a brand new one on eBay for $89. Comes with bulbs and 3 blue led moonlights. May not be a brand name but it has worked great for 6 months now.

Thank you both. Temp Dropped from 80 to 76. Luckily power was restored by 530pm. All is well with the world.

This incident has increased my desire for a ph controller and solenoid valve. Was...

SMUD turned off my electric. Apparantly you need to pay your bill on time to receive power, strange concept. :p

So it got turned off at 11am and should be back by 5pm. Do you think my micro...

I do weekly 50% water changes and follow the EI method for fertilizing. Are you suggesting activated carbon to reduce the coloring from the wood? Won't the carbon also remove desired organic...

There is some small young Jungle Val that I recently put in, 3 inch tall. Another month and the tank will be pretty well filled in I'm guessing. Time will tell.

I feed them frozen silver side...

I completely agree with all you have said. I'm just waiting for the plants to grow in. The plan is to eventually house them in a heavily planted tank about 250-300 gallons. Both fish get quite big...

Thanks all.

I have some ghost shrimp in the tank that were put in as feeders but have taken residence in the nooks and crannies of the tank. They haven't keeled over so I'm guessing things are...

Thanks for the response.

The stone did indeed pass the vinegar test. I didn't see any pyrite or real gold for that matter. The stone is definitely good old fashion granite. Hard, heavy and a...

There are also some high nickle High cobalt geology in the area that are toxic to plants. I'm hoping I haven't chosen this lot...

The rocks have been in the tank for less than a week and so far...

I recently collected stone from the Folsom lake region in northern California. It looks to me like granite with streaks of quartz and iron (red oxidation looking color in some areas)

My question...

The Tiger is doing better although he/she does revert to the said behavior from time to time. Many Datnoid owners on Monster Fish Keepers have stated that this is normal behavior for this fish. ...

IT not moving much...



I've had my IT for a few months now and everything has been fine. Very stable when small but as it gets older he/she has become less so. I think the Peacock bass is...
