thank you thank you and thank you

...you know, the little stick on thingy for the inside of your tank? Any opinions on these? I saw it today along side a similiar product for monitoring pH and *almost* took the bait, so to speak.

I was hoping to add it to my existing 46gal. I'm in the same boat as newfound77951 and I also think that for $20 I'll give it a try.

Any opinions on this system?

Thanks for the input everyone, I've decided to "let it be". Those leaf fish were cool...

quick question: while browsing Petco's selection of fish last night, I spotted an African Leaf fish. The placard claimed that aquarium salt was required for the care of the fish. I then noticed that the placard for the mollies and platies claimed thet they too required salt. I do have 6 platies...

Yeah, I observed my neons last night and they were just kind of floating around in the bottom corner. They almost looked as if they were drunk (maybe they were having a kegger and I wasn't invited!)

HIGHLY recommended! (but you knew that already *wink*)

I could use 18 lbs in Tacoma but can't get to you anytime soon.

Nice tip! Thanks!

Mike, you rock! Thanks so much!

thanks for looking, 46 gallon 96 watts of light, 12 hr rotation (I have 96 more but I'm trying to avoid adding a co2 unit) 60 lbs Eco-Complete Penn Plax 1200 Cascade filter 79 degrees via Ebo-Jager NO co2, although I have been dosing with Flourish Excel (SeaChem) 3 Yo-yo loaches (added after...

So, keeping TB's with loaches and plants would be ok?

thanks lmw80, what about an open top tank?

I'm putting together a new planted tank, a 46 gal bowfront. I've purchased this light: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=9871&error=NoQty The unit itself has a lexan cover over the light area. On the box it states that the unit should be used over a glass cover...

Thanks emmi, I'm looking at a used tank today (40 gal w/stand and all accessories for $50!) and your post is in perfect timing! Boy, I hope this kit is as good as it sounds...

Wow! Do the swordtails really get that big? I've got a couple in my tank and it's only a 10 gal :oops:

Wow! Just when you thought that this site couldn't get any better... IT GETS BETTER!!! Congratulations to both Allivymar and AquariumAdvice!
