First thing, on my planted tank I don't syphon the dirt. So what I've done is hook a plactic hose onto a fountain pump that I submerge in my tank and run the hose to the toilet or sink to get rid of the water. and then I run the pump in my bucket where I mix water and pump it back to my...

I like this. Any centerpiece to add to the list?

I picked up this 125 Gallon tank about a year ago and it needed a bit of love before I could get it up and running. I have re sealed it and soon I will be building a top frame for it out of angle iron. I have built my filter and it has started to cycle. The last thing I need to build is the...

Yeah the depth is my biggest issue with this tank. being twice as tall as it is wide it is tough to decorate and light. There is no room to put more than 1 light fixture on the tank. It also has made it difficult to build depth into the landscape of the tank.

Something like that would be really quick and easy to do. Is it enough to grow plants though?

Ok, so I typed up a big informative post here earlier today and it blew up and vanished when I went to post it. Here is the quicker version. 39 gallon (30x12x24 high) Have pressurized CO2 and ferts. 4 strand of LED - 1 cool white , 1 strand royal blue, 1 strand of warm white. I have 1...

Thanks everyone. After doing some research this is for sure not a fish for me. Time to keep looking.

Local store got him in one of their shipments and no one know what he is. Pretty sure he is one of the African varieties of cichlid but I am not to familiar with them.

The gorcery store. Giant Tiger had some also when I took a look after I found mine.

Canada here. I found mine at Safeway. It was in the area with Windex and other cleaning supplies. You dont need very much of it at all but it comes in like 750 ml bottles? I beleive it was the Safeway brand with a white label. Any place with cleaning supplies has it.

I have a Jewel Cichild who I diagnosed with Camallanus worms. I used De-worming Flake with Fenbendazole. They seem to have gone away as I do not see them poking out any more. I got mine from here: Medicated Flake Food for Fish They seem like nice high quality food and my Jewel ate them as...

Anyone? Just another update. I don't see any more signs of trouble after work today. From reading online today while at work it seems very possible that the new addition brought columnaris. I purchased the only kind of anti bacterial medication I could find at the store here. I also bought...

After reading the thread that I posted I hope that is not what it is...
