    killer snails or ?

    The sunken belly was only one fish, and I no longer live in Florida, I currently am stationed in England. THe fish appear to be from a very nice petshop. All of the fish appeared to be in good health, active, bright, swimming normally, etc. Its just odd, that it isnt all at once, that its such...

    killer snails or ?

    I dont use a dechlorinator, they dont use chlorine in our water over here. And the tank cycled. Its just weird that only one or two at a time are showing problems. Its not all the fish. I feed them once a day, I give them a few pinches of flakes, and I`ll drop in a few pellets for the pleco.

    killer snails or ?

    OK, I have a 55 gallon tank, that I set up about two months ago. I purchased about 6 guppies, and of those 6, 1 survived. I was deployed, my wife was taking care of the tank, so no idea on symptoms. I purchased several bunches of plants, at that time as well. I have since purchased another...

    Your most disgusting used aquarium story ever?

    Not a tank story, but cockroach story none the less. When I moved into our house on base, I would sit on the porch at night relaxing. Every night I would notice 2-3 palmetto bugs on the side of the house. I killed them, and the same thing would happen every night. Eventually it became a game...

    Monsterhouse, Underwater House

    Yeah, I really gotta work on that time zone thing. I just got to see the last 10 minutes, so all I got to see was the finished product. Nice sized tank (250 gallons), just didnt think the decor was that great.

    Monsterhouse, Underwater House

    I know this is lounge material, but just wanted to remind everyone in a half hour Monsterhouse Underwater House is on. Its where they turn a house into a underwater theme. They do a lot of custom stuff if you have never seen the show, the houses always turn out really neat.

    Anybody have a bowfront tank?

    I just picked up a 72 gallon aquarium bow front by all glass. I plan on building my own stand for it. BTW, I`m in trouble right now for buying it. Me and my wife saw in the thrifty nickel that there was a aquarium yard sale in pennsacola, so she convinced me to go there while she was at work...

    How risky?

    Would it be better to collect the sand close to jetti, or further out away from it?

    How risky?

    I cant find a supplier for southdown or any of the sister companies close by, but am curious, how risky would it be to go out on a friends boat, and just collect some clean sand from the ocean? My tank isnt set up yet, so it would be in there with it to cycle. The beaches here have very nice...

    Maybe a stupid question, but.........

    At Lowes and Home Depot, they have the workshop lights that hold 1-4 flourescents. Even have some that have the compacts. Why dont people use these for their aquariums, even with a different reflector if necessary? They have some dual units that are about 20 bucks. Why dont people use these...

    Need some advice on lighting?

    I bought a 5.5 all glass aquarium. I want to build it into a nano, I`m confused about the lighting. I bought two sylvania 23w bulbs, because they were on clearance at Lowes, but I`m not sure they will work with what I will need for the tank. Its a scew in type compact flourescent, 23w, but its...

    Who has a swimming pool?

    I cant find southdown, old castle, etc. in the area. Looking at quickrete`s website, their pool filter sand is advertised as silica sand, just wondering what the grain size is of this, if this is something that could be used in the aquarium.

    Anybody know?

    Actually I just noticed on their website they have filter sand for pools, any thoughts on this? All the stores are closed now otherwise I`d investigate it tonight more. It says "Narrowly graded clean silica sand".

    Anybody know?

    What kind of sand quickrete is? It says its a silica sand, is this something you could use for the aquarium? Thats all the MSDS sheet says.

    Please, need advice on set up

    I read that, but I didnt see anything about the bubble wand. Is there any other thing you can do other than getting a CO2 system? Would I be better off going with two 150w heaters at opposite sides of the tank, or using a powerhead to circulate water, or do you think the filter i have will...

    Please, need advice on set up

    I`ll be moving in 6 months to the UK, but I cant stand coming home everyday to a empty 55 gallon tank. The plan was to set it up as a SW reef, but too much $$ to tear it down so quick. But this will work out better, because it will be a excuse to the wife to get another bigger tank when we get...
