    pH controller questions

    I bought one of those Milwaukee 122 pH controllers and am having some minor problems. Something in the calibration isn't working properly. I can calibrate it to 7 with the supplied 7.01 pH solution, but when I dip into the 4 pH solution, i can only dial it in to 5.1. I followed the instructions...

    5 legged from at petsmart

    I went to petsmart yesterday and saw something interesting in their African Dwarf Frog tank. One of the little guys had 2 front right legs for a grand total of 5 limbs. I've heard of plenty of wild frogs developing this defect due to pollution or parasites or various other things, but never...

    Humanity has reached a new low

    One of my buddies pointed me to this ridiculous Amazon.com listing. Check out the reviews, they are priceless. Seriously though, who would pay this much for 5ft of what appears to be standard Cat 5 cable? If you click the 2 used and new link, you will see that the $999 listing is for a...

    Turtle pond?

    I've been toying with the idea of putting in a small pond for my red eared slider. It would just be a small 100gal preformed pond like this one. I've never done anything involving ponds though, so I'm clueless. Do I have to filter the water? If so, how do I filter it? What would be a good...

    Wigglers!

    I finally managed to get a batch of my angelfish eggs to the wiggler stage. This is what I did different: Previously I just took the object that they laid on, and placed it in my 29gal growout/breeder. After about 6 unsuccessful batches where everything got fungus and died, I decided to try...

    Plant pack

    Just probing to see how many people would be interested in some plants. Due to cold weather setting in, I'm going to have to invest in some heat packs for shipping. This will add about $3 to the regular shipping price which is usually around $6. Add a dollar to cover my time packing and driving...

    After some fiddling, I finally figured out how to get a good night shot of my tank with the LED's on. Just had to slow down the shutter speed...seems like a duh moment now. By the way, it's not actually that bright, I just turned the shutter speed to 15 seconds and let her loose, it's about...
