    My first 10 gal. tank started!

    Sand would be better. Use the filter. Some folks convert the Aquaclear filters to work like a refugium. I have a bed of rock rubble and a bag of carbon in mine. Some folks use other filter media like chemipure. If budget allows add a skimmer. Once you get the feel for the hobby you'll want to...

    My first 10 gal. tank started!

    Always helpful for any size, but never mandatory. But as Albie pointed out, smaller tanks require closer attention to maintenance. So if you rely on water changes, they have to stay on schedule.

    My first 10 gal. tank started!

    Hey Obi, Coarse, gravel like substrate will trap uneaten food and waste. The more waste that stays in the tank, the higher your nitrates will be. I think you are going skimmerless and relying on weekly water changes for maintenance. I would use a gravel vac type of siphon when you do water...

    IceCap 660 wiring question

    Because it is not a serial connection. Each end of the bulb is a set of electrodes that produces a flow of electrons that excites the mercury vapor causing it to release photons. It is not a wire connected betwwen bulbs creating a circuit.

    So tomorrow, 4/16 is the day. We can meet at my place or Mongoose's place at 6:30. It will be a simple move straight out of a garage and into my living room. Only 3 stairs involved. I couldn't get the basement cleared out this weekend due to 2 funerals and the death of my car. The car has...

    blange3's 180 upgrade

    Looks like the move will happen Wednesday. I'm firming up the time and meeting place with Joe. I'm going to skip the water test. (crosses fingers) I'm pretty sure the tank will fit in the Durango, but I won't get everything in one trip. Is anyone bringing a truck by any chance? I might be...

    Salt Calculator ?

    You're good Brian I go 22 cups because I don't always get a full scoop and then as Phyl says, "I salt to taste!" That reminds me, I need 2 buckets of salt for the upgrade. Oh the hidden costs, or more appropriately "the costs I have to hide from Cindy!"
