Sure, I can do that. Let me give this another week or so to see if someone local pops up. Also, work is going to be busy until the middle of next week so I probably wouldn't ship until then anyway. That will give me some time to get some pics.

I would love to give them a local home but I haven't had any offers for them yet. What's involved with shipping them? I was around when my buddy would get shipments to his store but I didn't really pay much attention. I would be willing to consider it. Any links or other references.

That's what I'm saying. 8) The rock has been out of the tank for a couple of months so it's no longer live. The CC is in a 5 gallon bucket. I would like to keep the bucket or if you have one to swap you can just take mine. Send me an email or PM and I can give you directions. I'll be...

You can have the rck and crushed coral. If I find a taker for the Discus, I'll post a price for the tank...once I figure out what I have to go with it.

Hello All, I had a SW tank at work and I have a FW tank at home that I just don't have time for anymore. As a result I am looking for any local people that are interested in the stuff. First, the fish. I have 2 Discus that I think are Red Turquiose. I got one from a pet store that closed...

I bought a house that has a basement, which means more space, which means I can take my RO filter out from under the sink and I can send the DI water into a decent sized container for water changes. I guess most people with this setup use some type of float valve. I was filling up 5 gallon...

All comments are welcome! I just didn't have space to make that clear in the title of the post. Thanks for the info jack. I appreciate it. I will have to take some measurements, but I wonder if I would be able to put two custom sealife PC's on top of a 20G. That's the light I've seen on...

I saw in one of your posts you mentioned that too much light could be bad for coraline. I am about to make some adjustments to a couple of tanks (including light and filtration) and I was just wondering how much is too much. Several of us maintain a 20 gallon reef tank at work and we have...

Hey Electrobes, do you have any specifics on those ballasts. and could you clarify somethng for me...Would this setup work or not work for corals? Would I just have to ge tthe 6,500 bulbs?

I second the suggestions made by Rex. Go for the light upgrade and read the FAQ. I haven't completely conquered my Brush Algae but I manage to keep it in check. I started dosing with seachem's FLourish and Flourish Excel. Best I could figure was that there wasn't enough nutrients (and...

This isn't really a saltwater question but I know that you saltwater guys deal with pumps, powerheads, sumps, skimmers, etc quite a bit so I thought I could get a pretty good answer here. To be fair, I do keep a salt tank at work, but this is a question for my home (fresh) tank. Anyway, when I...

I have a 65 gallon that was a salt tank for a couple of years. I just rinsed it out a couple of times and wiped down the insides with paper towels. I have had a Discus an angel, many tetras, three clown loaches, and a couple of algae eaters in it for a several months without problems. I did...

Hello All, I am looking for a light strip I can put on my 15 gallon Quarantine Tank. I was just wondering if anyone had a 24" (or shorter) light strip that they are looking to get rid of. I don't even need a bulb. Thanks

Hi, I bought a PENN PLAX 10" 100W heater and it just wasn't working out. I got a cheap heater (about 11 bucks) for my QT and I couldn't get it to hold the temperature steady. Since I didn't want my new clown loaches and SAE's to stress out I ended up getting a submersable heater with a better...

Is there any validity to what they say in the study? I am mostly trying to get ride of hair algae. That's pretty much the most predominant form of algae in my tank right now. But who's to say, if I dose the tank to their reccomendations, something else won't flourish. I guess the basic...

yeah, it's a little long

I am still fairly new to the hobby and I am trying to figure out the best way to deal with the hair algae in my planted tank and I found an interesting case study. http://www.cam.org/~tomlins/algae.html Any thoughts?

I found it... Thanks all. I really liked the sliding glass top but I decided to get the All-Glass Versa top made for the aquarium. I think Scott68 has a link to it in his post. I was wanderign through a fish store and there it was, not even on the shelves. It looked like it had just come...

Terry, The description makes sense... Now if I could only fin dthe tracks somewhere I would be all set. I have been scouring the internet but I can't seem to find anything. Do you think it would be possible to make somehing out of wood?

I think I have foud the source of confusion. I was thinking "width" as the longest distance on the tank top, and I think you are saying front to back as the width. It all makes sense now. I also agree that it would be a great idea to have sliding glass on the top. That would make life...

That definately makes sense. Thanks for the tip Gman. I think those would actually work out better than hinges. I do have a couple of questions though. Who is Terry? (forgive me I am relatively new here) Where can I get the strips?

jsoong, I don't think I quite understand what you are saying. what do you mean?

*duh* I guess I have bike on the brain. I should have figured out what type of cycling you are talking about. Hence the anyway, I am from Paterson. It's in Passaic County about 12 miles west of the George Washington Bridge.

Ok Allivymar, this is a small world... I am originally from Northern Jersey but I have been in C'ville for the past three years. My fiance is going to UVA for graduate stuff. We really like the area. It seems that there are quite a few horse people around here. It also seems that your...

Allivymar, That's a great link. The Pleco's are pretty cool. I think there is one in my future. It's got some pretty good information regarding the algae eating fish. I am guess ing the SAE or the Flagfish would do the job. I wonder though about compatibility with angles though. I would...
