    Hi all, I was told this was an Endler. I have a lot of them and they're multiplying like crazy. Can anybody definitely identify it for me? Sorry if the pic didn't really turn out, they don't hold still long!! Thank you!

    Sealing tube connections?

    background paint

    I had painted my 75 gallon black about a month ago. I bought the cheap acrylics from Wal-Mart. I think I paid $2 for it. . . It went on really nice. Took about 3 coats to get it nice and covered. I was happy. UNTIL. . . I was fiddling with the intake about a week after painting and I...

    I like the look of the one you linked. I would much rather buy something that comes recommended over something I "assume" will work well. I think I'll order it tomorrow. Next trick is sourcing a co2 tank locally and not having to give up my first born for it! Thank you again. Good to see I'm...

    2nd Filter Recommendations?

    Hi everyone, I have a 75g tank with a Eheim 2236 (Easy 80) running on it. While it says that it is good for up to 80 gallons, I am quickly hearing that this isn't really the case. Thus, I would like to get a second filter for the tank. It is a freshwater community tank with some Molly's...

    acrylic or latex?

    I painted mine a few weeks ago after watching some vids and asking around. I ended up going to Walmart and buying a cheap tube ($2-$3) of black water based acrylic craft paint. I did three coats using a decent quality sponge roller and used a hair dryer between coats to make it dry quickly. I'm...
