    Snails

    Finally got my ISO cranked up high enough to get photos of things that aren't moving very fast :lol: Thought I'd share some of the results. The precipice Snail in spaaaaaace! Hang in there! Need a little more depth of field... and to find where I stashed my polarizer. But getting closer...

    75 Low Tech

    I finally have my new "big tank" set up in my living room :D I used the stand from my old 120 gallon tank. The stand has an open frame top, so I cut a piece of furniture-grade plywood to fit (actually, it's slightly larger), finished it with polyurethane, and laid it on top. The new 75 gallon...

    Snailsplosion!

    I thought I'd share this, because it just makes me giggle every time I see the tank. Went from maybe a dozen large-ish snails to approximately 3 bazillion tiny ones almost overnight. Good thing the snails are aquatic, else they'd have taken over the house! :hide: No mystery why: I've been...

    Ideas for replacing a 120 gallon tank

    I'm looking for ideas and advice, as I've been running around in little mental circles without making a decision :rolleyes: I had a 120 gallon tank (roughly 48"x24"x24") for about 15 years. This spring, I came home from a vacation and found about 100 gallons of water soaking through my carpets...

    "Moderate" light over a 29 gallon

    I am setting up a 29 gallon standard tank. (MTS strikes again - this is all YOUR fault, people) I have my eye on dwarf hairgrass and water wisteria, which I see listed as "moderate" light plants. My goal is just to grow something different than I'm used to (crypts, swords, anubias, ferns)...

    Connecting a Python to a shower

    I had trouble finding advice on this when I was Googling around (it's possible my Google-fu has become weak), so I thought I'd share what worked for me, even if everyone in the world has figured it out before me :) In my house, there are a lot of weird, non-standard faucets and DIY plumbing...

    Slowing bronze cory reproduction

    I'm looking for ideas for slowing cory reproduction. I have a 120 gallon planted tank. About two years ago, I bought 6 bronze corys. About a year ago, I gave away 20, keeping about 10 - the smallest, quickest ones I couldn't catch. My latest count indicates I'm back up to about 15 adults and...

    Hello

    Hi, folks! :flowers: I've had a series of aquariums since the mid 90s, ranging from little 2-gallon betta tanks on up to my current 120g community tank. I'd like to say I've gotten better at this, but honestly, it's probably just that the bigger tank gives me lots more leeway for laziness and...
