I set up a new sump for my 65 gal reef tank last week, complete with new chiller and new protein skimmer. The temp used to generally run 81-83 degrees and that is with fans blowing and lights raised by building a middle canopy area. The sump is running well. The temp is now 78-80 degrees. Here...

I am going to set up a sump for my 65 gal reef tank at work. I originally thought I would build my own - I love the DIY 40 gal sump thread by RLG2182 http://aquariumadvice.com/viewtopic.php?t=53046 Then I started thinking maybe it would just be easier to buy a premade one. I went to the LFS...

Not sure about where to post this - if it needs moving please do. Why is it so hard to find a decent fishstore these days??? :( I want to set up a sump and I had been thinking about making my own and saw a great sticky thread with pics on the forum here. But I was not completely sure so I...

Hi! I have been a member for a little over a year. At that time I had inherited a 55 gal FW with 2 Oscars, a 10 gal FW and a 65 gal SW. I posted a few things here and there - mainly cuz I was having issues with the O's but that's a long story. Everything is doing great tho. The SW is at my...

My tank has been set up about 3-4 months and have had the gourami since shortly after that. The only other fish in my tank (10 gal) is a fancy platty. Sunday AM I noticed a red sore on the gourami. It's located on the top left of it's body - in front, but to the side of the dorsal fin. It is...

I was thinking about this and thought you guys might know..... If you are using Amquel+ on the tap water that you are using for the water changes..... and your aquarium is kind of recycling (from a move), then isn't this a bad thing? I add the Amquel+ to the tap water, then add it to the...

ok I know their is already a post with a similar prob, but to make this specific to my situation and not hijack the other person's thread here is my situation.... I got a tank from someone last Friday. It is a 55 gal FW with 2 8-10 inch Oscars (yes I have already been yelled at in another foum...

I have an Aquaclear filter for my 10 gal FW. I just went to change the media... unplugged it, made the changes and filled it with water.... plugged it back in and nothing!! It's not the outlet, it's the pump. So here it is midnite with no backups.... what do I do? Will my fish be ok? If so, for...

I have a Sunset Wag Platty that is suddenly being a bully to the Fancy Platty. But here is the strange thing.... when I turn off the lights, he is totaly fine and they swim together! The Sunset is twice the size of the Fancy one, and they are both males. It is to the point that the Fancy goes...
