I canned my Eheim canister filter, it caused more problems than benefits. I have a CPR wet/dry filter that holds all my equipment, return pump and...
I have a Mag7 on my 20 and it's borderline too much for my drain rate. If I didn't have the chiller to add head pressure, I would have to add a...
Good job! I just built a small frag tray too, out of a piece of scrap acrylic. :)
Acrylic to acrylic is Weld-on #3, 4 and 16. Acrylic to glass doesn't have anything that will bond. Silicon that holds glass to acrylic is more like...
I agree too. Mine failed 2 months into owning it. Now it's only good for the unswitched outlets.
Sounds like black turf algae. People use it in turf algae scrubber filters. I had it too and hated how it looked.
You can use a u-tube and just gravity siphon the water down. It's not very reliable or effective, but it can work. Just hope that a snail or object...
Depends on what you want to keep, for SPS, it will work great. If you want fish, make sure you leave some shade areas and caves to hide in when they...
It looks like 2 males to me as well. The smaller looks like a juvenile male. Females have a very hard cut into the abdomen, as gazog's pic shows....
Is your tank glass or acrylic? Acrylic won't bond to glass with silicon. But if your tank is acrylic, game on, woking with weld-on can be a pain to...
Wow that sucks, sorry about that. :( But you sure do have one nice looking clam in there, it grew a ton.
Just let nature take its course with the clown, you can't force it to rehost with it. The anemone will expel the water, that's its way of internally...
I have boycotted Dr Fosters and Smith and will never buy from them again. I won't go into details so it doesn't become a bashing thread, but do give...
400W 20000K bulb colors won't be matched by the T5 actinic lighting and the 14000K MH. Remember that what they send you is not always WYSIWYG. What...
Yeah, I think I will tear it down and spray bleach water to kill any of the fungal spores in the water system first. It will give the O3 an easier...
I'm wondering if I use ozone to nuke the tank, will I still need to bleach the tank as well? Since I have no life in the tank, I should be able to...
I never thought of using that! I'll pick up one while my tank is cycling so I don't risk killing off any livestock, so I kill 2 birds with one...
I'll do whatever I can at this point. I'd really hate to gut the system completely. I'll give it all a shot and get some Cu absorbers and see how...
Thanks for the responses. The stuff I used was actually this stuff and not Coppersafe, not that it makes any difference: Seachem Cupramine 100 mL I...
It was a copper alternative, I'm very much against using copper at all, especially since I owned a stingray.
