Interesting how the stems are so slender and coiling about like arms ^^ What kind of crypt is that? Is it just young to be curling like that?

Anything for a good sale ^^ Puffers are definately out of the question now, since I wouldn't want that as my only species. As for shrimp, I am more keen yet on Tiger shrimp since I am not really interested in breeding shrimp just yet, yet ^^ But of course, that runs into the issue of the...

Hello purrbox ^^ Was waiting to hear from you since you always have a nice strong opinion in these areas hehe. iu am actually starting to become most interested in the sparkling gourami, but I will definately have to do more research since they are a new species to me, never heard of them in...

I would think it is growing well, teh tips are a nice soft pink shade at times when the algae didn't cover them. I started with originally 5 stalks, clippings, and now I have 6 groupings of 10 stalks each ^^ Several of the plants have side sprouts coming off now too. If I had a camera, I would...

Trimming is thankfully not that big of an issue for me since I have to trim the Rotala constantly for my size tank. Will I have issue with the foxtail's under leaves being depleted of light much though if it gets too overgrown? Thank you everyone for your quick responses so far ^^ On the side...

Hello hello everyone ^^ Been a bit since I lasted posted here, but now I am back in business with my tank. Some time ago, I had to do a but of an overhaul on my tank. My fish had all died, the bettas by some odd bloating which indicates to me bacteria in the tank and the otos by unknown means...

Well, back on the band wagon of aquariums once more ^^ Sorry for not being on in so long, but my personal situation has still been in upheavel for a while yet, plus its hard for me to get to internet access readily. But now for an update! Ok, I am still battling algae, although recently I have...

Sorry for not replying for so long, but things kind of got upheaved with me. However, beyond the personal issues, I am starting to have success with my tank. I wish I could get pictures for everyone to see, but I will have to make do with words. I now have 2 1-liter bottles supplying a nice...

Spectacular ^^ Thank you so much fishfry! You really hit the nice sounding note with that 10$ price range :D Well, as I said, hopefully once I get all the equipment in, I can actually find someone with a dig cam so I can get pictures to everyone to show how much you guys helped me out ^^

Quite, but I am still reaching one issue despite all the aid you guys are giving me. Where exactly do I find these control valves and t-connectors and such besides online, and even online do they have it somewhere besides my usual shop center, liveaquaria? I'd prefer just to be able to get it...

Purrbox, you are awesome ^^ I think in the start I will use the soda just to see if that causes a good enough improvement in CO2 levels with 2 canisters instead of one. Yesterday I did a cleaning session for my tank and put in a new mixture, so thankfully today the bubbles are on the move again...

Awesome, awesome ^^ Just a few minor questions that I had some difficulty finding on other discussions. Where would be the best place to find this airline tubing? Also, what would you suggest for a yeast recipe for CO2? I am ordering the new light set now that is a 10000k/6700 combo, so I am...

Awesome! You guys have really given me spectacular responses ^^ This is helping me so much. You know, I find it odd that the actinic (sp) bulb makes the tank seem brighter, but in fact it is very low light. Funny how that works. I know I can probably get the light today, but as for the CO2, is...

Ok, for the past month now I have been battling with my tank over a major algae issue, to the point where water changes are no longer fun. I have gotten to the point where I usually do 50% pwc every Sunday and Wednesday just to keep my tank looking nice enough to show other people. So, I will...

Oooh, thanks for the responses ^^ I never thought of a measuring spoon to help people out with how much to use. The only past problems I had with algae was a minor spotting of some along the walls of the tank, but it never got bigger than the size of a business card really, so the hair algae...
