Though many of your answers are good... others are just ??? I don't want to know that you get your supplies for free. That adds nothing to the conversation I am trying to have here. Thanks for your willingness to share, but I am looking to have a dialogue not a one or two word answer. The...

Well thanks for all the answers, yours have been the best and most detailed out of all the forums that I have placed this on. I sincerely appreciate it! I am going to follow them up with more about what I am trying to accomplish as well as more questions. As you may have surmised I am...

Sorry there wasn't really a good place to put this post... Hopefully it gets some attention here. Hello Community! I have a few questions and am hoping to get your feedback. I actually work in the packaging industry and am pretty knowledgeable about the needs packaging live fish. I have...

Hehehe these guys are not getting in the intake they are swimming up the overflow :lol:

So I have an air pump and I think its TO loud. Would this same concept work with a power head hooked up? If anyone is doing that please let me know how its going and the brand you're using.

Hmmmm, I bought some small plecos one got in the filter and munched... I know many breeders use sponge filters when small fish are present. So if you could educate me on how they work and suggest some brands, that would be great. FYI this would be going in a 10 Gallon tank. Thanks a ton...

Here is an idea that has always worked for me, and it just to simple. :lol: If you are really trying to breed, you will notice a couple pair up. Take them out of the main tank and let them go in a seperate tank for awhile. Usually they won't breed right away, but should go long enough to get...

Now that we are on the topic, with my new tank I purchased a coralife digital timer to go with the coralife light setup. Pure lazyness... at its best! This thing is so cool as well! Not only can you program when lights come on and off, you can have it trip to your moonlights, and even have...

So I went to the LFS, a privately run one that far and above exceeds the chain stores in quality, variety, and knowledge. Back to the point, I asked for some ehiem filter media they handed me a 2L box. I said can I get two of these so they grab me another and I begin to keep looking about the...
