inspections Thank you for offering to help me. I could use the help. I don't totally mind getting the proper paperwork, I just don't know where to get it, and the inspector is not providing me with any help along these lines. my zip code is 92040..southern california.... I am licensed (in...

I have an in-home private childcare/preschool. I have three fish tanks in my classroom. One fish tank has ghost shtimp and snails in it, one tank has three large goldfish in it, and one fish tank has a large angle fish, some zebra danios, a few mollies. NOthing spectacular, but we enjoy them...

what could I put with angels? and I would probably move the tetras to my 10G

thanks for the ideas! And I suspected that might be the case with the bamboo...in one pet store they had the leaves exposed and in the other they had the bamboo completely submerged. I was hoping the submerged would work...maybe it will grow quickly enough to get a leaf peeking out of the...

So what kinda fish should I get?

Thank you. I have a large pictus catfish that insists on hiding ALL the time, so I built him a "cave" that was open to the front, so the kids can see him once in a while. Of course, the silly fish has already dug himself a deeper hole in the back of the "cave", so once again he will probably...

here are the pix:

I finished! Yaaay!!!! I finished! And you may notice a decided LACK of driftwood and THE WATER IS NOT YELLOW!:D So now, what should I stock it with? I currently have in that 1 large pictus catfish, 4 ancient zebra fish that are tough as nails, 2 neon tetras, one rummy nosed tetra, and one...

I got a tank like that..all neglected and unused and FILTHY! I've had great fun with it! Good luck! kd puffer...can I use 4 foot fluorescent lights over my 100G tank? I HATE the lights I have. They are not bright enough, and a four foot fixture from Lowes would be far less costly than new bulbs...

I have very fine sparkly black sand in my 10G, and it is beautiful, but very difficult to vacuum. I am going with a darker gray gravel..a natural color, but more gray than tan. I'll send pix!

Well, scrubbing helped a lot..I actually scrubbed it while it was in the tank every time I vacuumed, and I vacuumed up the grunge, and that helped...but I am just tired of maintenance. So I am changing to a gravel floor and a rock decor, with live plants. I've already bought the rock and...

No, I didn't. I had two huge pieces...one was about 4 feet long.... This is what my tank first looked like three months ago when I first put the driftwood in.

Here is some pix of my starting point. See how GROSS my water is? I took out the DW last night... I am taking out the sand this morning...and redecorating! I'll keep sending pix...

Ugh! I am SO GETTING RID of the driftwood in my tank! After 3 months it is still leaking yellow tannin into my water, and dripping "driftwood dirt" all over my white sand. UGH! But I thought I'd stop by and say HI to you guys! I've missed you!:cool:

i have a remote switch to help me control my submersible pump that is in my reservoir, while I stand near my tank. it is the coolest thing.
