Those look amazing! I've wanted to try those. The water lettuce I have just grows way to fast. I HAVE to thin it weekly or it blocks all the light. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Maybe it's the bucket lugging. Lol. I love math and especially science. Guess that's unusual. But I'm also new to the hobby. I just wonder what attracts men to the hobby over women. No need to answer just an interesting thought/conversation. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Aquarium Advice...

Good luck with the job! I'm lucky here the local club I joined has several other women that attend. But it's small and we don't have some of the programs you are taking about. There don't seem to many women on the forum but it's hard to tell. It's interesting to me that this hobby is male...

Great suggestion! I'll have to do some looking around and see what I can find. Thanks. I know what you mean. I have some water lettuce in my other tank and I have to thin it out weekly and feed it to my chickens or it blocks all the light to my plants below. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A...

Thank you. Great suggestion. I'll look into that. Another great suggestion. Thank you! We don't have Menard's here. So how thick of a foam is it? Rigid or soft foam? Thanks for both suggestions.I'll see what I can find around here. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Ahh! Right! You are welcome and thank you!

Love the stuffed cholla! Great idea!

Can I ask what BRS is? Just curious. Always looking for links on well priced supplies. This is a pretty basic FAQ on RO/DI but it might help answer questions. This link also has some good information. If you have other questions about RO, ask away, I'll try to answer the best I know!

Rain here today and 50s. Crazy! Hate rain and mud this time of year would definitely prefer some snow! We've only had a tiny bit so far. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I'll have to get some stuff. I received some shrimp wrapped in house insulation but the stuff gives me hives. I had to have my husband take them out of the box. I imagine it works well but I'd like to avoid it if possible. What do you use for insulation and do you recommend a brand of heat pack...

How much RO water do you figure you need? And how much does the dehumidifier generate? In theory it should be pure water but would be worth looking into more and testing. I've read that people use rain water. But again contaminants? Anyway at $20 I'd snag it and worse case resell it if you...

That would be great! Thanks. I've never done a trade but would love to do it. And I've only shipped plants so far so may need some advice on that. I'm in VT so I'd definitely have to wait until it warmed up some. Thanks! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Aquarium Advice mobile app

That's good to know. I have a club meeting next week and I'll ask and see if anyone has some they want to trade. Otherwise maybe in the spring I can find someone on AA to trade with. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I was thinking that might be going on. Who knows how long the colony was going before I got them. I have been thinking lately of maybe trying to find some to trade shrimp with to get some fresh genes. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Thanks brennae! I have 2 amano that were originally in the 29 community but always hiding so I transfered them to this tank. I had 6 Orange-eyed blue tiger culls but lately I've only seen two. I may have lost the others or it just may be so dense I can't see them. I do feed in the front where I...
