    Penguin filter question

    I believe the blue part faces away from the front of the filter. I had mine in backwards for a long time before I noticed it in the directions for a refill pack. Just be sure to rinse them out really good before you install them.

    New 300 gallon tank

    I agree with this 100%. The islands would look better if they were different sizes IMO.

    Hello, newbie here

    I've heard you can spot treat it with hydrogen peroxide. Turn off the filter and squirt it in the algae. Then let it sit awhile and turn the filter back on. You still need to figure out the root cause of the problem.

    Help! Power failure :(

    If you can, puta battery powered air pump in the tank. You can get them cheap at Walmart in the fishing section. If it starts to get too cold you can warm it up with bottles of hot water.

    Mystery snail eggs

    Thanks. The eggs were laid above the water line. I'll post picks and raok some if they do hatch.

    Shrimp Test Kit

    I'm no expert on shrimp keeping but I've had multi generations of RCS. IME they're hardy and will tolerate parameters the same as fish. 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites and less than 30 nitrates. They are really cool and help keep your aquarium clean. They do enjoy some live plants, especially some moss.

    Mystery snail eggs

    One of my mystery snails laid eggs. Anything I should know to ensure they hatch? How long until they hatch? Thanks, Arklatex.

    Crazy invention idea

    Not advocating the red pill here but this is a really good point. Why build up a huge BB colony and then stock slowly as opposed to stocking fully from the start?

    What type of water to use in a 20 gallon aquarium?

    You can use tap water with a water conditioner like prime.

    Carey's Final Reef Upgrade- 180g

    As someone else already you could try some extra strong rare earth type magnets to hold up those power heads.

    Digging into my first dirted tank ;)

    I would use the money to get a light for the 20 long. Either way you go you will need a good light fixture.

    Finally, my 20 Gallon build

    That's pretty cool.

    Starting Over - Fresh or Saltwater?

    You should check out the AA user rivercats tank. It is the same size as yours I believe. She has it setup as a heavily planted fw. It is an awesome example of what can be done with a big tank like yours. And it can be done with the equipment you already have plus an upgrade in lighting and a co2...

    Starting Over - Fresh or Saltwater?

    Also sw is a lot more expensive.

    Starting Over - Fresh or Saltwater?

    A reef would be really cool in a tank that large. Are you on a budget or do you plan to go "all out"

    Id snail

    Looks like a pond snail. If there's any more they will multiply like crazy. IME when there's one there's more.

    Dr Tims?

    It worked for me. It was really easy to dose to the right ppm.

    black tentacles

    Looks like its putting out a plantlet. After a while you can break it off and have a new java fern baby.

    Okay, believer it no believer?

    IMO I think if there was a shark that large still out there we would have seen some solid evidence by now.
