I have got to buy a uv filter for my pond. I've put it off for way to long. My question is, where do I hook it up? All the units that I have seen state to run the uv filter after the bio filter. So my question is, can one pump in the pond flow water to the bio filter, then thru the uv filter...

it is black mulch.

the pond was already in place when I bought the property. It was hidden due to all the surrounding shrubs were overgrown. All the plants came up on their own, lillys, orchids. The pond is roughly 8'x3', the deepest part is maybe 2'. Not sure what that amounts to in gallons. I placed 20 snails in...

thanks, still working on it!

Here is my 1st pond, frogs, snails and goldfish only.

So I am almost ready to start the new 55 gal tank. I have T5 lighting from my old saltwater tank, would this be good for some plants, or is it too much?:p

I am staring a new 55 gallon tank and I have made the desicion to go with sand!

I have removed crushed coral and added sand to a running tank in the past. It is not really that difficult. Remove all the gravel slowly until it is all out. After rinsing the sand, use a plastic tupperware, or a pint/quart soup container from a chinese restaurant! fill the container with sand...

got a picture of mbuna africans??

it's a 55, i have had discus in the past, I have been out of the freshwater circuit for about 5 years.

I had lots of trouble with crushed coral and high nitrates, after replacing it with sand, the issue was over.

What is required to have a planted tank? I know nothing about it, or what fish go well with it.

What do you guys think about a discus tank? I am trying to find a happy medium, I am used to vibrant colors from saltwater fish, but want to go freshwater this time around. I need ideas!!:troop:

I am open to all suggestions. I havent looked at a freshwater tank in over 5 years.

I have been a salt water guy for many years, I am going to set up a 55 gallon fresh water tank. What do you all have for suggestions on livestock?:uzi:

What do you have for a base? Crushed coral or sand??

I am moving and I have to dismantle my 55 FOWLR setup. I hate to do it, but I have to. Anyone in the CT area looking for fish or rock?

I am moving next month. I live in Ct. I have a snowflake eel, a PJ cardinal, a 6 line wrasse, a scooter blenny, a foxlace one spot, a female percula. I also have lots of live rock and sand. I will sell all this stuff relatively cheap, just cant give it away.Tank has been running for over 3...

That got some good responses! I am taking the tank. I am just going to store it for now. I have no place for it at my house. At some point when I move, I will set it up in the basement. I will start saving for it now. I know this will cost some seroius coin to get it going.
