    No clean filter or water change aquarium?

    How often will you be able to get to the tank? And how do plan on feeding any inhabitants of the tank while you are away? I would be very nervous of running any tank for weeks on end with nobody ever checking on it. If one small thing goes wrong and it's left for a week or longer you could end...

    Wigglers 2: Birth of a hatchery & everything Angels

    True, ammonia has been used in refrigeration for a long time although it is mainly used in industrial situations as there are far less dangerous refrigerants for residential or even light commercial use. (the pure ammonia for refrigeration is not your everyday hardware store variety). I know...

    Wigglers 2: Birth of a hatchery & everything Angels

    Glad to hear things are going well for you Andy, and I hope the positive streak continues for you. As for tanks...:nono:I don't think there is ever "enough tanks". I am constantly coming across fish I would like to acquire, or fry, or fish in need of quarantine, or squabbling fish that need to...

    Wow, love the pearlscale. Definitely look the same plus the pearl. I have another pair of silver pearlscale that I wasn't sure what I was going to do with but now.....:brows:. Just need to learn these genetics and understand how they affect each other.

    Thank you. Hoping to get a pair out them. I already have one breeding pair of Koi angels, and have several more tanks waiting if needed.

    Thanks, I figured Poppa or Andy would be along soon enough and be able to identify them.

    New Angels

    Just picked these guys up today, the pics just don't do them justice. The blue on them is incredible. They were sold to me as "Cobalt blue". I realize the Angelfish Society does not recognize Cobalt Blue, and the only thing I could find was Philippine blue. Correct me if I am wrong.....is...

    Angel breeding tube?

    Omg it has been far too long since I updated this..my apologies to anyone that was following. I must admit that I had given up a little on this project as I was getting a little frustrated with losing the fry every batch. I thought I was just going to give the fish a break and let them grow...

    Marineland magniflow c360

    Actually I measured the clearance behind my tank last night and I only have 3.5" so it is going to have to be the penguin 350. I will just buy a spare impeller. It is in my living room otherwise I would have gave up five days ago and just ran sponge filters just like the rest of my tanks tanks...

    Marineland magniflow c360

    Well I unhooked the filter and took it back to the store, unfortunately they didn't mention on the phone that they don't carry the marineland canisters at that location...:banghead::banghead: They called 4 other locations all of which had no stock. I went home beyond frustrated but called a...

    Marineland magniflow c360

    Ok, so I applied vaseline to the gasket and although it is not perfect I do notice some improvement. Not sure if I should try applying more, or something different. Or pack it all up and return it (calling store later to ask about filter returns). For now, waiting to hear back from customer...
