excellent tank. good work, you should be proud

she's just insecure and wants your attention. ignore her better yet, don't get stuck in the 'women are crazy/evil/etc' mode.... you do want to meet a nice girl one day, right? guys stuck in the 'women are evil' mode only find women who can be more difficult or women stuck in the 'all men are...

good idea brian! Blue rams 1. several times in 30t, a few times in 20L and regular 10 2. temp - 78 3. pH, usually 7 or below. I've seen them do it with a pH above 7.4, but not often. kH, about 4 at the time. gH, not sure 4. Regular feedings of high quality flake and blood worms every other...

i'm so sorry guys, i've been dealing with some personal stuff and haven't looked much into it... give me a few days? i just need to figure out where to find heat packs, the rest of it shouldn't be a problem.

if you're going to change your bulb, do it now that most of the melting has occurred. I don't know that I always know what goes on when i have a crypt melt, but you may as well make minor changes now that its happened, rather than later, when all the leaves are back.

gosh, i have no idea... let me investigate, i need a box, styrofoam and heat packs...

man, we need to figure out what is so out of balance with your tank... the blackout method may at the least put a stop to that in 3 days, but you'll still have some clean up to do before guest arrival.... lets see what malkore says. he seems to be good at this algae-ridding stuff.

doesn't that suck? crypt melt can be one of the saddest things, especially when its a huge plant. they'll come back, just stick to your normal routine and keep things stable.

so can you keep them in groups, or only by their evil little selves? no bottom dwellers of anysort?

thanks y'all, i think i've got it straightened out now.

I took 5 red tail mirror blue tetras from a friend who has to dismantle tank and move in a hurry. they were sold to him as columbia blue, but i looked them up on liveaquaria, they look exactly like the red tail mirror blue tetras. they are free to good home. you pick up or pay for shipping.
