    tank weight

    i have a 75g tank and am wanting to put it on the second floor. I know that it ways 900 lbs or so, but if it is along a wall, will it be okay?

    75 gallon hardware

    Don't the Emp400's have an extension tube? And if I have 25 fry or so that I was planning on keeping for 5 months in that 75g, would there be enough oxygen?

    75 gallon hardware

    I have a 75 gallon that I'm going to use to keep some mollies in and I'm wondering if I can just use an Emp 400 for filtration. I realize that there should be a lot more filtration in a 75 gallon tank (probably twice as much), but will it be alright for some fish to live in. Or will it just be...

    I like VisiTherms and Tronic's, but from what I hear Ebo-Jagers are well received.

    molly breeding

    Hmm looking at them again, it looks like they still are pregnant, but at least one has slimmed significantly. Maybe they're giving birth very slowly? I thought I saw one coming out before, but I think he was just pooping.

    molly breeding

    Last night before i went to bed, my two pregnant silver mollies were huge. This morning I woke up and they are much slimmer, back to normal size. It still almost looks like I can see a dark spot behind their gills (sign of a pregnant molly), but I could just be seeing things. I was eagerly...

    Pirahna question

    A 5" Red Bellied Piranha can run as cheap as $15 but that is rare. Baby Red Bellied Piranha's (<2") are usually sold for around $8. I'm curious to see your photo of the Red Belly. They should still have a red belly, especially at 5". Stores around the DC area sell a 5" Red Belly for about...

    Consensus on PH?

    No I agree if you're talking about maybe pressing too hard on the dropper and letting out too many drops or a stream of liquid instead of a drop, but when a drop falls is determined by its mass/volume. As soon as you squeeze out enough to reach the point where gravity takes over, the drop will...

    Consensus on PH?

    ya, if i could solve your inconsistencies i would. Sometimes i try filling up the vial from deep in the tank. For instance, I'll hold the vial upside down so the air stays in, then let water closer to the bottom of the tank fill it. My results seem to remain consistent, hope you can solve...

    Consensus on PH?

    After a bit of searching for something online to confirm what I was saying: A drop is precisely the expression of the molecular forces of cohesion distributing evenly as the forces of surface tension throughout its body. Hence a drop from the end of a matchstick, which is a dropper with an...

    Consensus on PH?

    you can't create different sized drops out of the same dropper.

    Best filter

    What's wrong with the AC 300 and AC Mini? I'm running a Penguin 170 and AC Mini on my 30g and they work great. Are you looking to get a canister filter instead of an HOB?

    Thanks for all the input. I think some of them are dying from an ammonia spike and that's causing this problem.

    i want a bottom feeder

    Get a Raphael Catfish (Striped or Spotted). Make sure you give them a cave to hide in that the puffers can't get to. The Raphael Cat is nocturnal, so it will help clean the bottom at night and should be able to hide out during the day and avoid the fin nipping. The only problem could be if...

    it's the smallest size of the Whisper line of filters, like the AC Mini

    This is just a feeder tank, and it's just every day one or two feeders get their tails sucked in.

    using a tank heater

    I don't think it gets hot enough for a fish to burn itself, but people have reported their fish getting stuck behind it for a bit, and the fish getting burn marks (which healed a few weeks later).

    New fish suggestions please.

    http://www.thetropicaltank.co.uk/Fishindx/semaproc.htm I think that fish is beautiful, but I've never been able to find one and it grows pretty big it looks like. Either way, that site has lots of pictures of different fish. Maybe a rainbowfish?
