Thank you for all the advice. It helped a lot. Going to keep them in the 30g and have fun watching them.

Think they could be pangio anguillaris? They look very close.

A friend of mine had his tank leak and asked if I could watch his fish. I put them in my 30 gallon (always have it empty and cycled for emergencies) which is what he had them in. The one fish he told me was a kuhli loach which I don't believe it is. But I am not sure what it is. I put it in this...

I have a 55 gallon with co2 and 4 wpg. I bought two lilies awhile ago not sure which type they are. One has redish green leaves (no patterns) it had a bulb, and the other is green with rich red lines all through it, that one had roots. They cost $40 combined. They are growing great and getting...

I recently asked in this forum about why my red plants are not staying very red. I use injected co2, 4wpg, ferts, ect. We came to conclusion my bulbs were not the best. I was recomended to buy two 54 watt 48" t5ho giesemann midday and two giesemann flora. I live in Canada and having a very hard...

I wrote Aquacave a few days back to see if they would ship the bulbs to Canada. I have yet to get a response which makes me doubt going with them. are any of the zoo med or coralife bulbs a good combo for plants? mainly red colored ones.

Has anyone tried JBJ TRUE TEMP 500W Digital Titanium Heater System? I have read alot of good reviews but the bad ones seem to be it stops working at 6 month. At $160 I would not want this to happen. Still looking for suggestions. Wanted to order today since promo code ends. Thx

It's for my co2

55 gallon, freshwater, heavy planted. Mostly live breeders

I need to buy a new heater for my 55 gallon. Don't care about price as long as its below $150ish. I was looking at hydor inline heater (already have a reactor 1000 hooked up so plumbing is no prob) but also like some of the heaters that are digital. My current heater is slowly loosing some of...

So they will ship to Canada so I think I'll order from them. I read some review and did some research. Looks like the Giesemann midday are a great choice. Now for second bulb trying to decide between giesemann aqua flora or aqua medic plant grow bulbs. What would you say are better? Or do one of...

Ok thx. I will look into that site, hopfully they deliver to Canada. Do you know if coralife or zoo med make a good bulb? My lfs can get stuff from Big Als Pets Canada in two days and it looks like those are the brands they carry. I'll still look into other site

Thanks for the info. Only thing I know about is the k rating. I am thinking of switching out all four lights since I am not sure how great they are. I will be buying four 48" 54 watt t5ho bulbs what types would you buy? Go 2 and 2 or get all 4 different. What k rating. Not sure if you can...

I have two 6,700 and two 10,000 all are. T5ho 54 watts

I have a 55 gallon aquarium with several plants. I have injected co2 going into my aqua medic co2 1000 reactor. My drop checker is green to lime green. *My lighting is a 4x54 watt t5ho light fixture with 4 lunar LEDs which gives me 3.93 wpg. I have two 6700 bulbs and two 10,000 bulbs. I run my...

I am still waiting for dry fert to come in mail. In the mean time decided to buy some liquid ones. I bought all of them in florish line except phosphate. In phosphate all they had was Kent Botanica Phos+ it has no direction on it as to dosing. Just says only for advanced hobbyists. And each ml...

I am rearranging my aquarium and had a question about plant light. I have a few cichlid stones which are great. I would like to have some plants growing out from the rocks. The only problem with this is the bottom 6-8" of the plant would get no light. The tops would get good amounts I have 3...

I have the fluval co2 indicator with their liquid you add. I can not find anywhere if it is a 4dkh but I imagine it would be? Would that be accurate enough to go by since it's lime green

So I turned co2 up and it's now a limish green but according to the charts I still only have 11 co2 ppm. My ph is still staying around 7.4-7.5 is the chart accurate at that high a ph? It's still that high after co2 has been on for 8 hours. Tap ph is 7.8-8 should I go by chart and add more co2 or...

So would you say I should crank up co2 and try to get it from dark green to lime green? Or leave it with a low co2

Test kit does it in ppm so kh is 140 ppm is that normal?

Bit of an update, and still a little help needed. I found out I had a faulty regulator with an attached solenoid attached which only shut off about 75% and still let 25% through. Got a new one and have it working better. Still trying to figure out co2 though. I just checked ph after running co2...

I just checked it's been off two hours and now doing a bubble every 50 seconds

I just started running co2 and I have it at close to 2 bps. When it is shut of at night it is still letting co2 throught but at around 1 bubble per 7 seconds. Is this normal? And can it cause any problems? Ot should I take it back for exchange? It is a Milwaukee MA957

I have a 55 gallon that I decided to finally add co2 to since my plants were doing semi ok (defently not great). I am trying to get my regulator set for the right amount of co2. My water out of tap is 8ph. I have had the co2 running for two days now co2 turns on at 7:00am lights turn on at...
