Went with the rw-8. Put it in, set the cycle I wanted, and let her rip. It is just the right wave for my fish. It is powerful enough to circulate the water without beating my fish to death. Once I plugged it in it took only a few seconds for all the crud I haven't been able to reach with the...

I mean, will it lower it to much to fast. Not really with it right now. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

My understanding of how peat works, it won't cause destabilization because it also lowers the balance of the kh along with the gh in a balanced lowering of the pH. I'm just wondering if that little filter with such a small amount of peat will lower it too much. Sent from my SPH-L720 using...

75 gallon. Parameters are just about as perfect gets. Except for my pH and gh. Around 8.2 for pH. 300+ ppm for gh. My water is so hard that I could sue the water company for assault and battery. I can't seem to keep even angels alive and this is going to evolve into a discus tank. The only thing...

Just got to make sure the flow and sway isn't too much for the discus and angels. It it's to much for them, I know it will kill the rams and tetras. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Thank you fellers. From what ya'll be saying, sounds like I need to go with the rw8, and determine where is should go up or down from there. I'm just in want that gentle sway but I also need to keep the crud stirred into the water column so it doesn't settle on the gravel. Want it to get pulled...

I'm needing some good sound advice from folks who run the jebao rw4/rw8. I've got a 75 gallon, 48.5×18.5×21.125, and I need a very slow gentle sway action in it. I don't actually need waves, just a gentle sway. I should be upgrading to a 150 gallon, 48×24×30, in the next few months. I've never...

And the raninus will be about eating the rams. I'll be about figuring it out. May just be about the angels being the center piece. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

The festivum looks nice but I'm trying to stay with a fish that is less likely to eat the cardinals/neons. That's why I said no to the firemouths. Good looking fish, neon vacuum. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

G. Parnaibae are some good looking fish. Only problem is I live in BFE. Actually the BFE of BFE. So a fish of this caliber is going to be a hunt and a half to get here. All suggestions will be considered. I want to build the best natural bio type aquarium that I can. I've though about putting...

With the amount of filtration I have now, I have to top off ever Sat morning and then do my water change that evening. Seems like I didn't have any where near the evap I have now than when I ran just 1 hob and the 405 cannister. Now I'm running 1 internal and 2 hob's. Blessed things do a good...

I'm slowly rebuilding my 75 g into a south American/central American tank. I've got 8 microglannis iheringi, 2 raninus, am going to add 3 angels, 10 or so neons/cardinals, 10 or so serpae, and 10 or so other undetermined schooling tetras. I can't decide on a center piece fish. It must be in the...

Thank you, fellers. Keep em coming. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Didn't even realize the dr.fs site listed fish. Checking it right now. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Thanks. Think I've looked them up before. Can't remember. Will look at though. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Mainly interested in south and central American freshwater fish list. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I was wondering if anyone knows of a pretty thorough list of freshwater aquarium fish on the Internet that also has good, reputable info on the fish. If anyone does, can ye provide a website or link to it? Sent from my SPH-L720 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

About 16 gallons. 3 or 4 angelfish, 6- 10 neon or cardinals, 6-10 small tetras, and 1 pleco that doesn't get over 4 inches long. What I keep running into is that people who have them say that close up, it makes the fish look distorted. Don't know as I don't not have a biorb and have never got to...

How big is it? Sent from my SPH-L720 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I'm with jglover on this. Never spend the money for a "complete kit". Get a tank with hood and light, then get heater and filter individually. U will spend a little more money initially but, in the long run, you'll save money by not having to repeatedly spend money. I'm fixing to put an aqueon...

Have you looked art the aqueon quiteflow. I've had experience with fluvial cannister and aquaclear. I run when anything hagen shows up. Very bad experiences with hagen products. I've never had a problem with the aqueon quiteflow 55/75. Run 2 on a 75g African cichlid. Very good water clarity...

Aqeuon quite flow. I've been around and around with all kinds of canisters and hob's. I always come back to the quite flow 55/75. I'm running 2 of them on a 75 g African cichlid tank. Plenty of movement (no scum on the surface) and I can't hear them from 8 ft away. Water is crystal clear and the...

Got to have the danios. Even of they aren't tetras. Ur other suggestions are cool too. I'm just not sure about doing a large shoal of just 1 type. I want them to spread out a little but cover a lot of ground. I'm also looking for a free flowing, tranquil tank that will help me get through some...

So I've got this 75 African cichlid tank and I'm worn out with the constant territorial fighting. My tank is terrible bc the fish all have their own territories. Nobody travels around. I have 7 African cichlids, 2 jewels, an acei, a peacock, an albino zebra (I think), a blue, and a demonsani...

Get the aqueon quite flow 55/75. You will be happier in the long run. They seem to be much more efficient than the A/c's with a lot less water bypass. In fact, if the filter floss is changed when it begins to get nastified, there is no water bypass. There 55/75 is much more quite than the A/c's...
