Nope, don't use it while cycling. What you're trying to do is culture two types of bacteria, one that feeds on NH3, the other will feed on NO2. The...
IMHO/IME, that's an accident waiting to happen. As it is, your clownfish doesn't have a "pass", your mantis most likely hasn't been hungry enuff to...
Ah...so those orange snails from the Caribbean are probably T. castanea then. I never knew the species name for them. Too bad we can't polish our...
Cool...we don't actually have PLANS to go yet...maybe by then, we'll go together!;D
These are the "usual suspects" you'll see in most tanks: Copepod: [IMG] Ostracod: [IMG] Munnid isopod (males fighting over female, note claws):...
Very cool stuff. Yeah...I know what you mean about stuff getting knocked/kicked loose. I had to jump into the the water once when a noob was...
Don't add anything else until the cycle "moves"...you can actually stall the cycle by feeding it too much, as the "second" bacteria species to show...
WOW...I bet diving the Mk V was way cool! Definitely a piece of diving history. The whole line of questioning regarding full face rigs is because I...
Copepods do very well on Iso and Rhodo...the trouble with Rhodo is that is has a very short shelf life (it's a pretty color tho). Tetraselmis is...
Absolutely.

I really enjoy co-op stuff these days, I like gaming with the "kids" as well as some of my friends, but not necessarily playing huge multiplayer...
Buying or building a fire-breathing gaming computer is easily 2-3 times what a console costs. Also, some peeps, myself included, don't want to run...
Good call on the old tubes FB...
Well, there's a bit more to it: 1. She doesn't have to wake up or be awakened in the AM. 2. Greg saves two "carry the dog" trips up/down the...
I have to agree with Mr. Bill here...most sea stars don't do well. They tend to take an awfully long time to slowly starve, so peeps think they're...
There's a crawl space above the tank, but no access to it (we have a two story house), otherwise I could go up into the crawl space and do the job....
One thing that may be happening is that "bubble shell snails" cover a lot of critters, the most common being the Stomatellas, which are really great...
If you run two lamps, it should be fine, IMHO. Altho it won't be very much, you can have slightly dimmer areas toward the "ends" of the tank if you...
