    Power Head Placement

    Right now at the same time. Probably not a good idea. I will see what the flow is like and decide if one should come out until I can get a controller.

    OT: Baby catfish rescue!

    Very cool Sandee. I would love to setup a FW tank but not going to happen anytime soon.

    Koralia magnum powerheads

    Paul, Third paragraph from the bottom, last sentence. "Hobbyists willing to spend approximately an extra $100 can combine the latest generation Koralia powerheads with a Hydor, JBJ or similar controller to create even more varied water flow patterns within their aquarium."

    Power Head Placement

    Well, placing them at opposite ends on the back glass tank and pointing opposite didn't seem to work out. Still much flow out front and I didn't like the way the adapters were directing the flow. I decided to place them on glass sides of the tank. It still seems like to much flow and am...

    Power Head Placement

    Jim, Eventually, I was planning on that but was more concerned where to place them for best flow.

    Power Head Placement

    Just looking for suggestions on where to place the new powerheads. I currently have one on the left and right side on the back glass. The pumps caused the sand in the corners to blow out and make a small mound on each front corner, see pics. Should I place them in the middle of the back glass...

    Vinegar Dosing

    I don't mean I will never do a WC again. Just during this initial period. I wanted to see if the nitrates truly dropped from the vinegar. I will re-start my WC schedule again next week.

    Mystery mollusk - ID help

    Is hard or soft when you touch it? From my experience I have seen something similar in my tank. It was white/yellow with some stripes and turned out to be some type of sponge. Never caused any problems but cannot be certain from that pic.

    Vinegar Dosing

    I probably should get a new kit. But overall I am happy with the vinegar. My nitrates always hovered at 40ppm and with aggressive water changes I could get them down to 20ppm. I could never get below 20ppm. If I get into the API yellow, 0ppm, I will be much happier. I have not done a WC since I...

    Vinegar Dosing

    Day 11 - 5ppm It is slightly less than 5ppm IMO. The API kit is hard to read with the colors and goes from 0, yellow, to 5, light orange. The color is a bit lighter than 5ppm. I am now going to double the dose, starting today will be 2ml daily.
