Yeah , flat plug could work , but would have to use glue and glue could come loose.. Wouldn't want to loose my prize coral if it fell off. I liked the idea to just take the plug with a spiked end and just cradle inside a hole. Without the glue, Then I could also move them around if i needed...

I keep my tank set at 78... Mine usually stays there through out the year on it's own , Except for those hot days that you don't have the air conditioner on then the water will go up a few degrees, Mine also seen 83 one day last year with no bad effects , but I wouldn't want to run it at...

Oh thanks, I didn't buy them yet , but I've seen the corals for sale with plugs attached to them aready and I want to prepare the new spot for them to come home. so, I guess your saying plugs fit into a 1/2 " hole?

I have a nice , pretty large piece of tonga branch rock in my main tank kinda looks like a hand , it has about five 3" fingers reaching up... I want to drill a hole in each finger of the top of the rocks so I can put in plugs in for some acros ; ) I have a crodless drill... what kind of bit...

The magnet and razor together make it so easy and fast to do

Peppermints will eat each other ? :o

Cool post Tropiquarium told me you can acclimate Mollies to salt water. I didn't know about the guppies Seen you guys say , Sailfin Mollies , are these ones better? Going to try to get them into my seahorse tank for a natural feed for them. Although, I hope the problem, like MAVL666 said...

That is a great easy idea to do and make. That might come in handy for my seahorses with less waste rather than using feeding cup. I'm gona try it :) I have a Copper Band butterfly , and they are slow at getting their food. At first the only food he liked was bloodworms and now he eats...

I seen one of my missing pepermint shrimp last night :) I'm so happy to know that they are not gone and still alive in there I'm guessing that they are all ok and hiding like you guys said

I got a giant bottle of vinegar from walmart today let the soaking begin :) I got the bottle brush gadget also like you suggested I'm staying clear of silicone and will do a water test soon as I'm done cleaning Hopefully holds and no worries Really appreciate you help ,Thanks!

Vikki uses the same thing as me , seen her link with picture , It's great! usually instock little gagget or will get in if ask for it, can call first They also carry the replacement blades for it. Never leave the scraper in the tank , Always remove when done, I take apart & dry razor to...

Aqua Oceans sold me a mag float and an attachment I had to superglue to it that holds replaceable razors to scape glass. Pretty much simular to the link above. That works like a charm ;) I think it gets glass much cleaner then just mag float. If I scrape slow the algea comes off in sheets and...

( Hey mike, Thanks again , I don't think im gona have proublem with your tank, that one is cleaning up really nice ;) I got another tank as I needed two for w/c and breeded seahorse and the silicone looks dirty and missing in spots , but silicone is kinda still there , I seen it and it was...

I have gotten a used tank and after wiping it down the silicone is old in front and I think It should reseal it before set it up. Read you have to scrap all silicone out and do whole tank over Dose anyone do this ? Is this a good idea , or should I try to use tank as is ? Thanks Jenn

Thanks for the picture

Hearing that from you makes me feel good about taking the chance with it. I'll let you know if it works out

oh good , I'm not the only one seeing these little shrimps . Maybe the little ones keep dieing off and them more are hatched. My tank has corner over flow , so I can see them in bottom of the tanks overflow some are larger then others some are so tiny like there just born. I guessing I need...

Tank i'm thinking about is now filled , so shouldn't be leaking I really didn't check the silicone out very well so you gave me another good idea I'll look for salt creep, wet spots , floor water I seen bottom bulkhead had some salt buildup around it but I'm thinking that the bulkhead is an...

Thanks for clearing that up for me I'll have to check into my friends friend system , cause I really don't need proublems with any used tank; Is it a good idea to re-silicone over existing silicone in the tank before setting it up?

Thanks for all the great ideas ! I have to research if a big mexican turbo will bother seahorses.
