    My ghetto DIY protein skimmer

    I have a 29g FOWLR tank that I've been wanting to get a PS for but haven't had the money. The most affordable one I could find was around $70 and I didn't want to buy a cheap PS and then have to upgrade, so I decided that I'll just make my own out of household items. I've been doing some...

    Weird Guppy Behavior

    I have this male guppy that's swimming very oddly. I've only seen him do this twice and both times it was late at night after I would turn the lights back on for a quick look at the tank. He would start swimming really fast crashing into everything and be in a twirling motion the whole time...

    DIY canopy reflector questions.

    I'm building a DIY canopy for my tank and I was wondering which of these paints would work best as a reflector? Flat white, Semi-gloss white, or Gloss white? I'm painting it tomorrow and need to know which would work best. My guess is the Super High Gloss White but I'm not sure. I have all...

    DIY Auto Top-Off System by Leoslizards

    Here is my idea for an auto top-off system. I haven't actually made this system yet so I'm not sure it would even work at all. Basically it just consists of a water reservoir (preferably an air tight container to reduce evaporation), a water pump, and two liquid level float switches wired into...

    Pleco compatibility?

    Hi, someone just gave me a 8" common pleco that I currently have in a 10gallon tank and I was wondering if I could put him in my 29gallon main tank that has a 1" to 2" albino bristle nose pleco? Can these two different species of plecos coexist? I'm afraid they might not and the bigger pleco...

    Broken heater turned out to be something else!

    I think I figured out what's wrong with my heater in my main 29 g tank. Nothing! Looks like my thermometer is broken and not the heater. I raised the temp on my heater to the max, 96ºF and yet my thermometer said the water temp was just under 60ºF. I added an extra 50watt heater I had in another...

    Need tips on treating fish disease

    I bought a pair of albino bristle nose plecos on Jan. 23, 2007 and today I noticed one was looking really pale and ill. He's missing half his tail and has some weird sores on his body. One of the sores looks as if it was bleeding. My guess for the missing fins is tail rot and I have no idea what...

    SAE in Miami Florida?

    Hi, I am in desperate need of SAE's. Preferably in Miami Florida. I called about 30 LFS and no one seems to carry them. I was only able to find them online but the site has a minimum order amount and that'll cost me over $80.00. I just need 2 or 3. If anyone here lives in Miami FL. and are...

    lower ph & kh? Want to add new fish.

    Hi, I'm new here so I hope I posted this in the right place. I was wondering how I could lower my ph and kh? I read somewhere that you could use driftwood and peat. Is peat the same as peat moss? Like the stuff you get at home depot that's used for plants and such? I have a planted 29g tank...
