John,
I know what you're saying about the fish in the fuge. I have it because a close friend bought a pair of fish called saltwater mollies. A grouper ate 1 so I took the other as I had a fish only tank at the time. The molly was a female and gave birth. This is the only surviving baby the...
Matt,
Thanks for giving me an actual answer. I thought I was doing something wrong. Like I said I am anal about feeding; being sure to not over feed and have uneaten food laying around. I will step up feeding the corals a little more as I don't have growth. The fish I think get plenty already...
Very Funny. I do feed them just very controlled to ensure food isn't blowing all over the tank. Guess I'll step it up and feed them a bit more than I usually do. I feed the corals twice a week guess I'll try every other day.
Thanks
We have all done something similar. I like to use gravity to drain water from my tank. So one time I left both ends of the hose in the tank with the lid closed while I dumped the water. When I came back one end of the hose slipped out and the rug was very wet. I have a much better method now.
I have a regulat flourescent light over the fuge. The size that fits on a 10 gallon tank. I have frogspawn, hammer, leathers, candy cane, torch, bubble, shrooms, sun coral and some zoos. Only the orange zoos are out the rest are closed up. Fish are paior of large maroon clowns, purple tang...
I have a 30 gallon sump and my cheato doesn't seem to grow. It just vanishes. Any suggestions as to why this is happening. I have an in sump Berlin skimmer and a Phosban reactor HOB of sump.
Thanks,
Mark
In December there was a Discovery Channel special about alternative fuel sources. They claim that every car on the road today can be converted to use 100% ethanol for a cost of $100 to $300 max. Why the country isn't doing it? Probably because the gas company's are stopping it. As I am sure they...
I used a Rena Filstar on my FW tanks and also on my reef tank until I ugraded. I bought it on-line for $99, biggest size XP3. It's self primimg and has three fairly large baskets for media. I bought mine at Pet Solutions. I now use it on my turtle tank; keeps the water crystal clear.
Looks like your anti-virus software thinks you have a worm virus. Does your software check for this? How recent is the program? I would download the most recent upgrade and run it again. If it still finds it try cleaning it.
I used the CPR HOB fuge on my 55 and it worked great. I used it in conjunction with Prizm skimmer and a Filstar XP3 canister. Eventually pulled the canister and had no problems. Then of course I upgraded to a 75 gallon DT. I have a 30 gallon sump/fuge thanks to Mikem.
First one:
How much electricity do pumps and lights consume? My December bill was a little over $100 more than usual. I know I had Xmas lights on two trees and decorations outside. I have the following on my tank:
a- Return pump 600 gallons per hour, brand unknown
b- Koriala 3
c- Mag 5 on a...
What is the problem your experiencing? I would be a bit concerned with the NO3 and suggest performing some water changes to bring it down. I also have a problem with the color charts and always ask my wife and kids what color it looks like. Doesn't help as they all see it different.
I had a pair of orange ones that bred in the tank in about 3 months. Also, have silver ones that bred a few times. I have one baby that has grown up, it's in my sump. They did a great job of algae control and didn't bother any other fish.
Reaching out to the schools is a great idea. I have given my kid's teacher the Tetra info for three years now. The first time they were able to get a 10gal tank and set it up a freshwater tank. The second year the teacher wasn't interested and this year they adopted chinchillas instead. The only...
