cool.. this looks like something similar but i was thinking of a program much like chuck's calc, except it has the options of choosing brand named ferts.
Hi, I just bought some ferts from Kent , i think. And i remember there being a fert calculator out there that actually let you select different name brands of ferts so that it can account for different concentrations. i haven't had any luck finding it , any of you guys know the site where i can...
i 'm not sure if this has much merit but i have heard that actinic can actually increase algae production. In lowering the light not only are you harming the algae but your plants too.. and since algae tends to be the more resiliant of the too i bet it might even get worse. why not shoot for...
This idea is really stupid and just popped in my head so i thought i'd put it out there... you can throw it right back though :) Do you think there would be any advantages of sticking a multivitamin in an aquarium.. or diluting one in water and then pouring it in there...? Obviously fish...
Purrbox, i notice that those combinations of ferts from greg watson are very popular among the high light guys. how exactly do you does them? do you dilute them in water and then pour it into your aquarium? or do you make dry tablets that go in the substrate ? also, do dose them all in one...
do you have pressurized CO2 on your 20 gallon tanks ? how much light do you have going to them. i have a 65 watt CF on my 21 gallon and am getting a lot of algae.. i'm thinking of making the leap to the bottle... do you have it rigged to a ph meter and an auto solenoid to control dosing ? and...
Hi all,
I've had a 21 gallon planted for over a year and i am really getting tired of using my aquaclear 70 HOB filter. I don't like the way it looks and the way that flow is easily stopped by the most minute amounts of deterius in the filter sponges, causing the sponges to rise up through...
Anyone know where to get this stuff online? i'm specifically looking for the bio rio filter media and the lily pipe used to circulate the water back into the aquarium...i've looked everywhere but i can't seem to find it.
Hey guys i was just wondering what type of pleco would be good for keeping driftwood free of hair/beard algae.. or any other kind of fish for that matter.
i was thinking along the lines of a smaller sized pleco ( no larger than 3" or so...) any suggestions.. ?
thanks for the input!

Hello everyone. I've recently encountered a problem with my tank. it's a 21 gallon freshwater and it's being over run by small little snails. i have one apple snail but i don't think that these are his offspring as i didn't see any of its eggs underneath my glass top.
any advice on how to...
cool, i've been there it's a pretty sweet place if only it were a bit larger. It's a bit far but the Big Al's on Dixie and Dundas in mississauga has some pretty sweet selection.

it may not be much but also keep in mind that light passes easier through acrylic. thus, when used in SW applications the vibrant coulours stand out a bit more. Probably not a huge difference though.
