    New 20G tank~ cycling/fish/temp/algae Q!

    Well, it's been a long time since I've posted, but after an extremely long fishless cycle was finally completed (after three faulty heaters from PetSmart -_-) I've acclimated 15 neon tetras to my 20G long tank, and sadly, two of the little fish must not have been overly healthy in the first...

    New 20G tank~ cycling/fish/temp/algae Q!

    New 20G tank~ cycling/fish/temp/algae Q!

    Oh, didn't know that about Bio-Spira... thanks for clearing that up. I wasn't aware that there were pretty crappy heaters out there... would the 100 watt from the local Petsmart (about $20) be probably too cheap? Thanks for the response. :)

    New 20G tank~ cycling/fish/temp/algae Q!

    :::First timer's spiel::: Hey everybody! This is my first post on the site. I'm planning on shortly moving into an apartment in a new town to go to college, and after reading a book on starting up and maintaining an aquarium, I've decided that a freshwater tank would be a great way to make my...
