    Maintaining a pH of 7.0

    Cardinals are my main focus and, with this post, I hope to learn how to best maintain a pH of 7.0 without spending a whole lot of money or using RO. That is if I even decide to mess with it. I'm not so sure I can trust the tap water to be consistent with it's buffers. My aquarium is just shy...

    Redirecting water ourlet on HOB filter

    Hi, I'm mainly keeping Cardinals in a 20 long with an AquaClear 50 HOB and am placing it in the back far right corner. To encourage my schoolers to school I'd like to make a contraption that would divert the water from the HOB into a channel that would take the flow straight to the front glass...

    Overstocked ?

    Hi and thanks for the forum. Planning just a 20 gallon has proven to be not a very easy thing to do. Any and all input from you will sure be very helpful, thanks. How about this selection, the Cardinals are my main focus? I have to admit that this is scary, am I seriously not risking bio...
