Once again, this is a great site for local reefers (fish, not smoke) in all of Michigan! http://www.michiganreefers.com/forums/index.php?referrerid=9017

i've heard that it was good but i've never actually been there.

the Rubbermaid is slanted on the sides. it doesnt hold stuff too well.

to be honest im not too big of a fan of hob's i was kind of hoping to hide it in my rubbermaid.

hi all. i am planning on buying my first actual skimmeer soon. im not counting the crappy one that came with my nanocube. it is going to be for my 55 which will eventually be a somewhat heavily stocked reef. ive been reading up on skimmers lately and it seems like the favorites are the octopus...

ok so im going to go back to the lfs tomorrow. here are some things im thinking about getting: more neons some black skirt tetras a few dianos of some sort maybe and of course a few plants (ill make sure these ones are aquatic) i really want some yellows/whites in my tank because its full of...

yeah ive already made the pleco mistake before and wont make it again. and yeah i just get so antsy with this stuff. i will just wait a little. i just fot kinda scared cuz its been about a week and they hadnt paired while my bolivians in my 30g paired within minutes

well for this tank i think for now im going to stick to strictly rams and maybe a pleco. ive noticed that my rams arent pairing up at all. ive ID'd one as male and the other female but they just arent interested as of now. i do know that the female is wildcaught and the male is tankraised...

alright! it was just 2.99 so i wont cry over it.

yeah i looked it up and i put in a wooden airstone leading to a powerhead at the top. now i just gotta wait for the co2 to go back down the line. yeah i just dont like the look of snails. dont know why i just think they make the glass look speckled and messy. whatever though. yeah i couldnt...

uhhh nope. should there be?

oh yeah, im getting a small co2 bubble every 6 1/2 seconds with my diy system.

is there a dip or something that i can do that will kill them off?

youtube linky link: YouTube - 30 Gallon Freshwater Community Aquarium sorry for the bad vid taking skills thanks

i think i might isolate the eggs (w/ parents?) if i want to try raising fry. and yeah, i wasnt planning on getting the angels anytime too soon because i've kind of spent my money for a while, im a kid and its hard to come by cash and i need time to accumulate some more mulah. i also set up a...

agh! already got a gourami. darn. i also picked up 5 tiny tetras, and 3 very tiny otos. i got a plant aswell and im hoping to go pick up some yeast in a little bit for some co2 action! the gouriami is really cool i must admit. i cant believe i forgot the name but it is the blue one with red...

ok so ill change the tetras up. any other recommendations for other cool fish i could add?

sound good...? 2 bolivian rams (already obtained and in tank) 2 black veil angel pair 2 dwarf gouriamis 3 otos 7 silvertip tetras what else?

well i read up on some stuff on co2 and ferts. first thoughts, ferts seem confusing to me. is there like a weekly all in one thing that i could add? fw and ferts seems like sw and dosing. they both completely confuse me. co2 seems more reasonable. as long as i can just mix the stuff each...

little list thing... 1. can someone help me get my list down to a definite list so i can get down how many of what ill be getting. 2. ill get some new bulbs. ill gt some plants after that. can i get a list of plants that i should stay away from? 3. how is my aquascaping for now? 4. should...

sorry, 4 bulb 24". i believe that im a little high in the k rating somewhere around 10,000 for the white bulbs and then there are 2 actinic bulbs.

pics i couldn't find any before pics but here are some afters, be warned, i shot these with my phone so they're kinda bad. 1: FTS 2: lights, filter, heater 3: rams and catfish 4: pleco. tank is a little cloudy still as you can see. and this tank is established (forgot to mention that the tank...

I am finally renovating my old fw tank that's been wasting away in the guest bedroom. Before the tank had a bunch of ugly fake plants and colorful gravel that was all nasty. it had an unknown pleco, and what i believe is a pictus catfish. Now i have removed everything, placed flourite...

alright, wasnt too sure about that. it seems like there can be soooo many more fish in fw lol. thanks!

yeah over the past hour I've been thinking. i think im going to ditch the bolivian rams for this tank. also im going to wait and hold off for a little bit just to be sure that the rams are doing good.
