Yes. Thanks for asking. I started with a 27g cube Then got a 10g cube And am working on a 20g high right now

Yes, this was my intro. My questions to get the conversation going were posted in a thread in the "GS" forum. It seemed the appropriate place. After all, I'm basically getting started all over again. But since then youtube has done well answering a lot of things I wanted to know. Not...

Thanks. Really looking forward to some links to aquarium supply stores. I'd hate to be at the mercy of Petco until I learn the ropes again. I've been pouring over the YT videos in hopes of getting my questions answered there, and there are a lot of useful videos, but it almost seems the...

New guy here and it looks like I'll have to relearn things all over again. But this looks like the right place to do it. What is this LED lighting? And when did they get rid of undergravel filters? :lol: Looks like I have my work cut out for me. I think I'll get started :)
