I have one of their new Diablo Dc skimmers. Compared to my previous skimmers the Diablo is the quietest, most stable, easiest to adjust, and best...
This kind of crime has become disturbingly frequent... it happened to a Canadian LFS in Alberta last year too (except rather than using copper, the...
Thanks Powerman! I wasn't questioning you, just trying to understand the process :) I'm no physicist.
It leaches into silicone, but not plastic. It is actually fairly straight forward to get copper off of plastics, as I described above. It is more...
Interesting info. What were the methods/conditions of the experiment? My thought was that the rate at which the pump and heater heat the water...

Regarding 24/7 light on macroalgae... there are a few things to consider. 1) Although most text books split the photosynthetic reactions into the...
Well I'm no expert at this as this is my first time keeping seagrass too, so I can only offer possibilities. I have read that it is not unusual...
Lacks color, but still one of my favorites from my aquarium. [IMG] [IMG]
Another picture update. [IMG] [IMG] The Halophila has been growing more quickly lately. I doubled up the number of Seachem flourish tabs in the...
It says in the PDF that the customer can specify the spectrum. Using a few warm or neutral whites in lieu of the "cool" whites would remedy the lack...
