my guys seem stress free.. the one I have must be ok.. but I will take your advice and get an updated kit ASAP

hey all.. someone gave me an older test kit today... its one of those deluxe Fresh Lab 7 in one kits.. Not sure how old it is.. but do the chemicals go bad after a while? Just curious. Bites

hey guys and gals.. quick question.. I have tried using Wardley's shrimp Pellets (sinking) for my two cories.. they drop like rocks and the cories don't exactly have a homing device that I know of that takes them right to them.. in your experience.. do these little guys find them later and eat...

ty for the suggestions...

What is a good sinking pellet to get?

algae wafers good enough? or do they like the meaty stuff too?

Hey guys.. my two cories are pretty timid.. and it's rare that I catch them eating.. do they primarily feed off the bottom at night? how can I be sure they are getting enough grub? Bites

Update for you all.. he's already starting to re-arrange the tank.. lol this should be fun..

Thanks for the advice.. he can stay solo for a while.. its a Juvi.. he's only about 2 inches in length now.. so I will let him stay in the 26 gallon for a while and transport him later.. Thank you guys.. Bites

I have a juvenile Red Devil.. never had one before.. I know they are very agressive and I plan to keep him relatively alone.. with maybe some other kind of hardy bottom feeder.. (any suggestions?) Also.. I have him in a 26 gallon bow front.. right now Im sure he is ok..but wanted some...

nah..thats cool.. I just didn't have any other de chlorinator.. so I wanted to make sure before I bail on stress coat... thanks.. Bites

where did you hear that it "irritates" the fish? bites

I have had fluvals for a few years and love them

does this apply for any filter? This is a question I was going to ask as well.. I am going with my flubal 204 for a 25 gallon tank.. and I wanted to try sand... what do you think? bites
