Refilled DIY CO2 9/31/13 - YouTube
Update vid uploading now.
Here is the drop checker as of 5 min ago. I know it looks green but it's already gone from blue to dark green and is on it's way to yellow now.
So I wanted to share. It's 8 feet long so it's great for larger fish like fancies and koi. I may use one when I move out of my apartment for a brim and blue cat tank.

It's still cloudy. I just put the sand in today and it never seems to rinse well enough. I put my neon tetras and the Top Fin 20 from my planted tank on it. Parameters were 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, and almost 0 nitrate. pH was 8.0 which concerned me a bit but apparently the fish are adaptable...
At the end of the evening when my air stone has been off the longest and my co2 and lighting has been running all day my pH is 6.8. My light cuts off at 10pm and the air stone kicks on (diy co2 stays on 24/7). After 10 hours with the airstone on and the light off my pH is 7.6.
I don't know...
Say I wanted a 400 gallon acrylic. Could it be 50 inches tall, 48" wide, and 20 inches deep (give or take) and sit on the floor? All the saltwater tanks I see (don't know much about them) are elevated and have holes drilled in the bottom and sump tanks hidden in the stand.
I stopped at Petco today to pick up a 2 ft piece of black background and a few live plants. I spotted this gorgeous fish and now I'm itching to buy a new tank and start a reef.
Before I started.
Went to Petco today for some black background and solution. Wound up getting a couple of plants.
Had a couple rocks like this. I used them as a little retaining wall to keep the substrate piled up against the back corner of the tank. Worked well.
Looks so much...
I picked up the Odyssea 24" T5HO quad 96w fixture with 6500K bulbs from Aquatraders. I also picked up the estimated index pack, iron, and some GH booster from GLA. I can't wait for it to get here. I'll also be moving from DIY CO2 to a 5 gallon pressurized system sometime in the next month...
My 3 year old named them.
I don't post much on my 55 gallon anymore because I've been so into my 25 planted but I still keep the goldies in top shape. I never found the right color yellow plants so my LSU theme hasn't moved beyond the purple silk plants.
I have a 25 gallon planted but it only has a 2 inch cichlid and an African dwarf frog in it. I'm concerned that the fish won't produce the ammonia necessary for my bacteria. Do I need to add more fish or dose ammonia? Or will it be okay?
Petco is running a 25% off everything online sale with free shipping over $49. I was considering picking up their Zoo Med Aquasun 24" T5HO for less than 50 bucks and the reviews on the site for this lamp are great but I feel like I might be buying something just to want more in a few months...
I decided I was being impatient and trying to 'fill' my tank with plants that weren't grown. I figure it's time to place the plants where they will look good when they grow out instead of trying so hard to make it look good with bunches of immature plants. I like the way it looks and can't...
My plants were getting out of control and the 25 gallon was twice as tall as my 10 gallon. It came with a Coralife T5 with a 6700 watt and a colormax (no idea what K it is) bulb. I also stuck my 15 watt T8 6500K fixture on it. So I'm pretty sure I have 43 watts in 25 gallons now which is...
I just picked up this potted plant from Petco because I liked the look but it didn't have a label or tag. It just had a price tag that said assorted potted plants.
And the whole tank. I moved the aponogeton to just in front of the telanthera cardinalis. They have plenty of visibility...

I'm can't see a scenario in which I pass this up. It's 24" long which exactly fits on the endtable I currently use for my 10 gallon. I'm becoming a planted addict and would love to move my grass and other plants into a...
I woke up this morning and noticed a fish was missing. Searched through the grass to make sure it wasn't hiding like my frog does. Then, after searching I found it dried out on the floor under the stand/endtable. So I'm down to 5 and not really interested in replacing it. I picked up a black...
I did my weekly 50% water changes today. Did a deep clean on both tanks so I pulled the fish out for this one. I normally leave them in because the cleaning doesn't seem to bother them but today I wanted to get in and stir up the substrate, move things around, and clean filter elements so I...
My 55 is my goldie tank and is unheated. The 10 is a planted and has the heater from the 55 in it. I figured it'd just work really efficiently but I figure now it must not be turning on at all. I would have expected my water temp to be in line with the room temp but it's not. It doesn't seem...
I was thinking of using this as the center of my theme. I wanted to use a giant ceramic frog from from Pier 1 but I couldn't guarantee it wouldn't hurt the fish. So now that I have a fresh canvas to work with I was thinking this would look awesome.
