When I go to a pet store and see sale people trying to the sell the world at once to a customer I open my mouth. So many times I see people buying a tank, filter, etc, and a bunch of fish. I tell them forget the fish for now and spend a good amount of time explaining why. My 11 year old is a...

Harry, I agree and probably would have said something to the manager. I would have to guess that they hired some company to setup and maintain the tank, obviously not a good one. Write that letter and send it to the main office. What's the worst that can happen; they don't respond. Heck maybe...

I've been tempted many times to get a Heni but never have. If I upgrade my tank will consider it. Do you know if it's true they do best in a group than single. Mark

Carlo, Why not get a Heni. They are similar in appearance. Mark

Carlo, That was my ace in the hole. Mark

I'll post some but not sure how well they will come out.

Neighbor's mowing service snagged my fence near the bottom and pulled it. The owner and agreed up to $100 for repair without receipt. The fence companies say it's to small a job. If anyone knows how to fix it let me know. It needs to be pulled down about 10 inches to reach the bottom pole. It...

Came home from vacation last week and water was ll over the kitchen floor from the fridge. I thought it was the copper tubing and connections for the water/ice maker. So I replaced all of it Sunday. Woke up today and guess what more water. I think it's leaking from the inside near the ice maker...

That last comment about Ocean Gallery was extremely funny. I strongly doubt they will unless you have a very good association with them. Mine did that and looking closely at it I saw very thin filamnets hanging off. I used Stop Parasites by Chem Marin but still didn't make it.

Ralph, Initially sounds like your power supply went. You should have just bought another instead of a box. As stated prior does the monitor have power? If so I would guess your hard drive went but can't be sure without looking at it. Mark

That place truly sucks. I have never seen any healthy fish in there and never bought any. I always felt the prices were high. I used to but fresh water fish from them but even those would die in a day or two. Never had this problem from other places including those pet store chains. Mark

A few questions. I could have missed these in the thread. I will only be attending not dive;. maybe a few family members tagging along. What day are we meeting? Are there directions as I am not familiar with Belmar Basin? Can I bring anything? Mark

I don't have that problem. Like I said there isn't much in the way of a mirror anymore, plenty of green algae on it. Do you think I should try the magnesium?

Sam, Goodpoint. My tank has a mirror back; its mostly covered with algae already though. Mark

Okay. Since I put up the T5 lights I am having a problem with algae in the tank, mainly on the front glass. It's yellow/brown and seems stringy as it moves with the pump blowing on it. I have set the lights a s follows: Actinic on at 10:00am with daylights at 11:00am Actinic off at 9:00pm...

I also know through the TFH magazine they will assist in a setup. I am not sure if it's TFH or a vendor that advertises.

Is a 5 gallon tank to small for a nano? If not what kind of filtration options do I have? I thought of maybe using a small HOB fuge or just skimmer. Thanks, Mark

All my son makes me watch from the time I get home until bed, every day so far.

Looking to get a better skimmer for my 55. I can get a the above used for $50. The pump with looks different from the online pics. Is anyone familiar with this skimmer and give some info about it? Thanks, Mark
