    Light timers

    I bought, and have been using the cheap mechanical timers from Ace hardware. They work fine, but the noise they make is starting to annoy me. I want to get opinions from you guys on a quiet timer, but also wont break the bank.

    Im hoping to snag a great deal on a 40 breeder and would rather not spend tons of money on the expensive store backgrounds. A painted black background looks great in my opinion. Anyone have any tips on how to do it or what brand or anything? Thanks!

    What fish was this?

    The other day I bought fish to eat from a local fisher man. In his store I saw this fish skeleton and I am very curious to know what kind of fish it is. I believe it is salt water, if anyone could help that would be great. Thanks!

    Fish Food expiration

    Does fish food expire? When I bought my tank off of craigslist it came with a bunch of food. Some not even unsealed yet. I couldnt find an expiration date on any of them though. Anyone have any insight on this?

    Aqueon Evolve 8 lighting

    Someone is selling a brand new (but opened box) Aqueon evolve 8 on craigslist for only $32. The only thing is, its missing the light. Itd be used for plants, nothing special. Does anyone know where I could find a replacement light for fairly cheap, or would buying a light ruin the good deal?
