I haven't had to use root tabs in a long while, but am looking at doing some changes in my tank. What does everyone recommend?

Here's my tank now, needs some work....

Anyone remember these?

Just wanted to know if anyone has had any experience with this fixture. I'm thinking of getting it for my 75G and get it back up to higher light. Currently I just have a shop light over it. I miss having the 520W over it that I had before, but the fixtures just got too hot and the connectors and...

I don't know what happened, but my 75G had crashed last night. I did a 60% PWC last weekend like I usually do, and cleaned out my XP3 which was partially plugged. Lately it's been plugging up pretty quickly, so it looks like I'm going to have to do filter maintenance about every other week, or...

I was just wondering if it was recommended to have a bubble wand in a SW setup. I know it would be more work keeping things clean. I saw a couple SW setups in town, and at one of the LFS's, and when I asked the LFS, they said it's not really required, but highly recommended. Is it something that...

I was just wondering what some of you do to try and get your powerheads from rattling. I can't seem to get mine to stop. They worked great until I cleaned them, now they rattle like mad. I've already threw a couple away and got new ones, but I don't want to keep wasting money like that. I've...

Well, it's been a few weeks ago that I got rid of my tiger barbs, and was getting ready to move my fire eel to my 75G. Well, I was looking at the 55G today and noticed something moving around in the tank. It was a baby tiger barb, lol. It's only about 1/4" right now, lol. I haven't looked hard...

Well, so much has changed here. I no longer have Betty, my Cattle Dog. She was just getting too stressed by living in town, and is now in a much better place. I found a 400+ acre ranch that was looking for a Cattle Dog to work their cattle. They lost their Cattle Dog due to old age, and saw that...

I remember a while back ago someone was telling me about doing SW, and I can't quite remember what they were talking about. But they said that it's something you don't want to die in the tank, as it poisons the tank and all the coral if it does die. Anyone know of what things will poison the...

I was just wondering about what livestock I should add to the tank, once set up and has been running for 3-4 weeks. Would it be various crabs and snails? Also, for the hermit crabs, how many would be a good number for a 55G? 29G? I'm not looking to get fish or larger shrimp, etc. yet, just...

Well, I'm thinking of trying out the SW side of things, lol. Been thinking of either doing a 55G or a 29G, but thinking more of doing the 55G with the 29G as a hospital tank, where I would use the 29G for either sick fish, or for new purchases for a month before moving them into the main tank...

Here's a little fun I had with Nell and Betty.... Nell's eye contact and targeting....

Well, it looks like I finally succeeded. I have baby Bristlenose Plecos. So far I've seen a total of 4 in the tank. They are living around the powerhead on the side of the tank. Here's a few pics....

Well, all was going good today until I came to AA an hour ago. I opened up AA, and all seemed fine. Then I clicked on Forums and everything went into chaos. Then my AVG Antivirus went off, saying I just picked up a virus, and I moved it to the Virus Vault. The virus is JS/Psyme. Just want to let...

Here's the pics of my awsome looking, but very mean Red Tail....

What is this?

Here's some pics for ya.....

Took lots of new pics of my 55G today. Went to Spokane today to the LFS there, and picked up a huge piece of driftwood. It weighed about 12lbs, lol. Barely fits my 55G, lol. It's the piece that's more orange, on the left side of the tank, on the bottom. It's awsome.

Do fish really like water changes? These tiger barbs sure do, lol.

Here's my new family member. I drove over to the coast to pick it up. It's a Rainbow Cichlid. Not sure on the sex, but I think it might be a male. Got it free. ;)

Well, the LFS here pulled it off, lol. They were able to order fire eels, and I got the 2 they ordered for me. One is about 3 inches, and the other about 4.5 inches. They are spunky too, lol. Look to be in great shape. The 39 tiger barbs have been checking them out, but they don't mind, lol. In...

How do you sex a Rainbow Cichlid? I'll be picking one up next weekend, it's being given to me, as his other fish are getting too large for it to be in the same tank. Will have pics when I get it. Just would like to be able to possibly sex it, as he doesn't know if it's male or female.

Let me in the pic... See, I can even smile.... Cheese.... :)
