What kind of wood did you use for the sides of the stand? I am currently in the process of building a stand for my 120 gallon tank.

I'm no electrician but I was pretty sure there wasnt a ballast for the leds. What I dont know is where to find a replacement power supply for them. I've only been able to find replacement leds. I've never had a light like this before so I am new to the power compact lights.

Recently I bought a used coralife lunar aqualight and the guy I bought it from told me that the ballast for the leds needed to be replaced and that coralife has a lifetime guarantee and they were sending him a new one. I beginning to think this guy is fos. Does anybody have any ideas on how to...

You can also buy a glass lid for your tank. It keeps a better seal and has that piece of plastic that you are talking about. I find that the water evaporates much slower with a glass hood than with the black plastic ones. The one I bought for my 55 gallon was around $25 for both pieces and I...

cool thanks! my daughter has been asking for a tank in her room and I have a 10 gallon that I keep just in case but I wouldn't put anything fancy in there for her.

Alright here's what happened, I have a 120 gallon tank with a black stand basically made out of mdf. Bought at petsmart not the most ideal stand but it worked until I was ready to either A: I build a stand for it or B: my dad is able to build one for it. Well on sat I did a water change, gravel...

Hey what kindof (or color) gravel is in your 10 gallon? I like it.

Like p3purr stated keep the gravel and filter media wet so don't completely drain the tank leave about and inch or so of water on top of the gravel. The fish can go in the five gallon buckets just make sure that you use a bubbler in there with them. Thats the way that I have always transported...

Take as much water with you as you can. How far will you be moving? 29 gallons is not that big of a tank, I've moved a 55 gallon from ohio to indiana and only took enough water to transport the fish and I didn't have any problems. Now I have only dealt with african cichlids so if you have other...

How often do they molt?

How long have you had the electric blue crayfish in with your cichlids? I love those but I was told you couldn't keep them with african cichlids. i'm pretty sure the ratio is 1in of fish per gallon so you could have 39 inches of fish but just keep in mind of how big the fish get fully grown. My...

I have had an xp2 on my 55 gallon for over a year and have had zero problems with it and the water is crystal clear. Works great!

They are addicting my very first tank was a 20g then I went to a 55g and a 30 g then I wanted bigger.....petsmart had an awesome deal for the 120g I just couldn't pass up. I just helped my brother clean up and set up a 220g that he got for $500.00. He lucked out big time! He got the tank, stand...

If you are teter tottering over the xp2 and the xp3 I would go with the 3 that way if you ever get a bigger tank you already have a filter you can use. I'm pretty sure with the rena you can use any kind of media in the baskets I got both stars and ceramic rings. I started my 120 gallon with only...

Nice looking fish but the parrotfish and the tiger oscar are south american cichlids and the rest are african cichlids. It is not recommended to mix the two because they require different water parameters. I'm not saying it can't be done because My first cichlid tank I raised a parrotfish and a...
