    A Yellow Submarine

    Maybe its not a pipe dream:brows:..maybe someone here has heard of such a thing or has enough pull in one of those huge faceless corp. that could manufacture such a thing.

    A Yellow Submarine

    So I was watching my fish in my 90gallon and just enjoying the views up close when I realized, sadly it just wasn't close enough. My tank is pretty dense,and over time lots of plants have gotten lush, driftwoods arranged, plants growing off them,etc so there are many hiding spots and crannies...

    Been awhile but have some questions

    the tank to left is his current home, he spends alot of time in the bottom hole to the right, the right is his new home. and I kinda forgot to actually ask. would it be good for him/her to have other cichlids and if so what would be best? we are more than willing to give him/her the entire...

    before and after

    wow, what a difference!, the first one couldnt even tell anything other than plants were in there. (: looks great though (hope you made sure to check all plant snippings to avoid accidentally tossing out a few hitchhikers attached) of course I wish i was close enough to go rummaging through...

    Dwarf Goumari in a 33Gal?

    I have had both my gouramis for well over a year now. and they are quite healthy even skating through 2 outbreaks of ich. I have a powder blue and a flame-red. both males in a 90 gallon I would have to agree with the 2:1 ration of boys to girls. although I havent been able to find ANY females...

    Whats wrong with my RAM

    Sadly my bolivian ram passed away last night. I buried her in my flower garden and said a small prayer. all other fish are still showing no symptoms or quirkiness in behavior so i hope the worse is over (did 50% water change anyways to be sure)

    stupid petco plants

    I do fertilize with seachem flourish tabs. and do an EI dosing schedule (with dry ferts - max doses and do 50% water changes at end of week) I can see under the tank (I have a open bottom cabinet) the roots from these guys and sources aren't kidding when they say heavy root feeders. I was just...

    stupid petco plants

    Ok, so I made the mistake as I am sure everyone here has at some point...I had alot of plants from Petco and sure enough, many rotted and fouled the tank,etc...why? well because they like to sell aquarium plants that are NOT but rather terrarium plants...doh! anyways, I did manage to find a...

    Algae Aquascaping?

    Hmmm...Interesting. I mean I know I was probably being over the top with that question but I just started worrying about it because as it stands when I test my water i am usually in the 0-10% range of Nitrates (my tank again is moderately to heavily planted) but I was assuming my plants were...

    Algae Aquascaping?

    Quick question for you all out there...well actually (2) 1) I know alot of aquarists do not want any algae in their tanks, I perhaps may be an exception but I wanted to get a good understanding of what could happen down the road. I have a large peice of bogwood/driftwood in a 55 gallon that is...

    sink caddy for a bio filter

    wow, very nifty idea! I will have to use this for some of my baby tanks that dont have the luxury of a spongefilter. those caddy's I am sure stuffed with some filterfloss would be a nice way to stem the 'current flow' from a standard HOB enough to stop the whirlpool effect on water in tanks of 5...

    my 90 gallon ~ medium planted.

    I tried to get the best pic i could, but my camera doesnt seem to want to focus through the thick glass of my 90 . maybe I can use my dads camera and see if I can get a clearer one, I have a bunch of other shots but most were too blurry to post. running AC110 AC70 Powerhead (running as...

    stock.

    yeah, I bought the angel and neons at the same time, my angel is still very small about the size of a 50cent piece (including fins) as for other schooling fish? what would be a good companion(s) for my tank as is? is it best to have only 2 male gouramis? I was thinking of getting maybe 1...

    Would you buy this "Moving" moonlight?

    I am game too. I think this is a fantastic idea and if you go through with it I would love to see pics or vid of prototype and would be more than willing to pay 40+$ for something like this. as for sales. I have a gut feeling many of the people here are on the safe side but I would use...
