    Brownish Clumpy Algae?

    Thanks, I appreciate the response. So far so good. Everyone is healthy and happy so I think I have to go with the lighting being the problem. All I have is a 14W Bulb over the tank. However, it is placed in the kitchen which gets lots of light from the sun naturally during the day (Did this...

    Brownish Clumpy Algae?

    O.K. My tank seems to be doing great. I have 8 Neon Tetra's and 2 Oto's in a 28G Hex tank. I do 10% water changes weekly and everyone seems to be doing great for a few months now. Now the problem. I have a few pieces of Driftwood in the tank and they seem to be sprouting some Brownish...

    New Pond

    Sorry it's been so long but I've kinda went off the posting for a month or so now. I check in every now and then but we just implemented WebSense on our Business Net and everyone is being screened out (Including me! I'm the one setting it up!) Anyways, since work tracks what we do now, I...

    corvuscorax, That's pretty funny that you mentioned that book. I already purchased it months ago and have read it a few times now. Thanks for the advice. I'll keep everyone posted. I think next weekend will be the start up weekend.

    Refugium Critter

    Wow! Don't know what it is but I'd hate to meet it out in deep space with only photon torpedoes to kill it. Go to warp.........oops, That's a Star Trek episode LOL. Looks almost like some sort of shrimp. Time for me to research. I'll see if I can find something. George

    Bang Guy, What size was the pondliner, thickness, cost,etc... Am looking at getting a small 6x6 pond going and if this is good, I may give this liner a shot. Thanks. George

    New Pond

    Thanks Spewns, I'll take you up on that offer when I start to dig the hole out. Our temps are really pretty good. The coldest it's ever got here was in the 40's which was only for a day or two. It's mostly in the 80's - 90's in summer and the 60's in winter. Does a deeper pond mean better...

    Thanks

    Just want to say thanks to Kevin (Reefrunner) on his suggestion of using some Oto's as my algae clean up crew. I got 2 of them and in a matter of just 1 week, my algae problem was reduced by 90%. 2 weeks later everything is gone. Nice and clean with absolutely NO ALGAE STRANDS ANYWHERE...

    How much Sand? (for a hex tank)

    How much sand would be needed for a 4" DSB in a 28G hex tank? The tank is 18" flat to flat but I have no idea how to calculate this and we have no calculator here for it. Thanks :popcorn: Mmmmmm......Love Popcorn!

    Oto Pic

    Here's a pic of one of my new oto's. I took the picture at night and it unfortunately was 1/30 sec so I think it's a little blurry but it's all I could get for now. Enjoy

    Wanted: Planted Tank

    I have a 28g Hex that I'd like to add Live Plants to. The tank has a coarse gravel bottom with a UGF filter plate and a power head for water movement. I have a 14w NO light. Also have a fluval 203 for media and such. Does anyone have any recommendations on what type of plants would do best...

    Algae Bloom

    Light is on from 7am to 8:30pm or a total of 13.5hrs. The tank is a 28g Hex and the light is a 14w 15" SuperDaylight lamp. Would adding plants help any? What would be good to add for starters and this low light? Will Chinese algae eaters eat the stringy stuff? I heard that they normally...

    Algae Bloom

    I restarted my sons tank, 28g, UGF, Fluval 204 with Bio-ChemZorb and Bio Media, about 3 months ago. I let it run for about 1 month and then added 5 White Clouds. 1 Cloud dissapeared and 1 other died, was found and has since been removed. I've so far done 2 water changes. 1st water change was...
