I have heard that while doing a fishless cycle and your nitrites fail to come down, your cycle may have stalled and doing a 50% water change can get it going again. Can someone explain this to me? From what I know about the nitrogen cycle, I just don't understand how the cycle can stall and...

... if you had a 125gal FOWLER tank to stock with money not being a significant option (just not outrageous), how would you stock it?

After my disaster trying to drill my sump tank, I'm having to change from an external to an internal sump pump. Here is what I was going with... PanWorld 100PXX Here is what I'm thinking about going with... Eheim 1262 Aside from the obvious difference, would they be comparable? Does...

I have a 55g that has been completely torn down for a reseal. This will be used for a sump on my 125g DT. Since the height of the 55g (19") will make it tight to work on/in when inside the DT's stand, what do you think about cutting it down? If you would, how much height would you cut down...

The more I read about setting up sumps, the more confused I get. My questions... DSB or no DSB? Filter sock on sump inlet or not? I think I've decided on a sump/refugium with LR rubble and some chaeto. Also will feed the fuge seperately in order to control the water flow through it...

I've only seen solid core PVC used in aquariums, but does anyone have any experience with/know if foam core pvc is marine tank safe? Working on a DYI overflow for my non-drilled 125 gal build.

...for a 125 gallon FOWLR? Getting prepared to build my intro back into the hobby after a 25 year hiatus by asking questions and doing research. What considerations should go into determining sump size? Thanks for helping!! I'm starting to get excited! :dance:

I do have room for a 125gal DT but just barely. I have an opportunity to trade my 75gal w/stand plus $200 for a new 125gal w/stand. Would it be worth it to increase the size? I currently have no other equipment so having to trade out equipment is not a problem. My wife says to keep the 75gal...
