i used windex and this: worked perfectly

i think its a good idea to add some ammonia yourself. make sure its pure ammonia. windex wont work.

Update 12/16/08 I installed a GFCI outlet and put it inside a waterproof housing. There's no way any water will ever get inside. i also found my skimmer and cleaned it, its an AquaC originally i had planned to use the 40 gallon glass tank as a sump, but after sitting down and trying to...

hey justin, thanks for all your input. i agree on all your points. remember the aquarium is not up and running, i just wanted to see how it looks (paintwise). i will definitaely be leaving room on the left side. also that window is getting a curtain sometime this week. there is an outlet...

i painted the back blue today and after it dried i couldn't wait any longer and set it up. there's no plumbing yet and no water/fish of course, but i just wanted to see how it looked. for livestock: I plan on having a Rose Bulb Anemone with a large mated clown pair inside. I would also like...

you're putting your fish through a cruel experience. no one said fishless cycle is better, but its a heck of a lot less cruel.

contrary to what the live sand bag says, there's no way your tank could have cycled in a week, simply by adding live sand. your fish died because you didn't cycle the tank properly. get a new test kit and wait at least a month before you add any more fish.

is ur sand live, or is it just normal sand?

im not an expert but, you added corals right after cycling? I was under the impression that the tank needs to be well seasoned before adding any corals to it.

Hi guys. Ive been MIA for about 2 years or so i believe. I have a 120 gallon aquarium which i had to take apart and store because we moved. At my new house i took a look around and realized the black aquarium cabinet would look hideous with the new decor, so i decided to fancy it up a bit to...

what waste water? what waste water, i thought an R/O system was basically just a filter. We have one under the kitchen sink, i didn't realize there's a drain.

Let me start off by saying i got a new tank, 125 Gallon with a 50 gallon sump, protein skimmer, U'V sterilizer, built in over flows, cabinets doorts on the sides blah blah, its good for a reef however, im having major issues with water evaporation. This is what it looks like at home. We got...
